The Best Single Serve Coffee + A Coffee Lover’s Giveaway

It’s time to wake up and smell the coffee with what just might be the tastiest (and coolest) cups of joe I ever found, from Brooklyn Bean Roastery. These coffees come in a range of flavors that are utterly delicious, and really cover every flavor you could imagine for coffee or hot cocoa. From Coney Island Caramel and Brooklyn Cheesecake (it’s cherry cheesecake flavored coffee!), to Peanut Butter Cup cocoa and Junior Mints, and seasonal flavors as well, help fill out the classic blends of light, medium, and dark roasts.

Brooklyn Beanery offers single serve pods that work with many single serve coffee makers, including and especially the Hamilton Beach FlexBrew, perfectly sized for the counter top. It barely takes any space but gets the job done well, and after it makes a cup (in sized 8oz, 10 oz, or 14 oz), you don’t have to do anything else, since Brooklyn Bean coffee and hot cocoas are already flavored and sweetened. Just pop in your pick, press the button, and wait for your zap of tasty caffeine.

Brooklyn Bean coffees and hot chocolates has partnered with the single serve Hamilton Beach FlexBrew to provide us with a coffee maker that not only brews their beans to perfection, but also lets you use your own ground coffee if you choose, and is compatible with other brands (though would you really want anything other than Brooklyn Bean Roastery coffee?). You can choose a regular or bold brew, and get your morning started right!

And I have to tell you, I get a major kick out of Brooklyn Bean Roastery packaging and labels (I totally get wanting to smack the alarm clock with a hammer)…

I love seeing those in the morning myself, and they would also be a fabulous, funny, flavorful gift for the coffee lover (ie anyone). You can find Brooklyn Bean Roastery on facebook, pinterest, and twitter for recipe ideas and seasonal news, and can stay in touch with Hamilton Beach on facebook, pinterest, and twitter.

As for us, we just spend our lazy summer mornings enjoying it. I don’t look forward to the early mornings of fall again, but at least I know I’ll have my coffee ready in a jiff when it’s time. My favorite Brooklyn Bean Roastery coffees are Cinnamon Subway and Vanilla Skyline, and I love love love the Campfire Hot Cocoa! It’s so easy to make them too with the Hamilton Beach Flex Brew. Just add in the water from the mug you plan to use, pop in your Brooklyn Bean Roastery coffee or cocoa of choice, and press regular or bold.

We have fun writing each other notes on our chalkboard cups and mugs, and leaving favorite flavors as a surprise. This has become a habit for us lately, using chalkboard products and leaving each other notes, and a morning message on days we miss each other because we have different schedules helps keep us a little more connected.
