Disclosure: I participated in an Influencer Activation on behalf of Influence Central for McCafé packaged coffee. I received product samples as well as a monetary promotional incentive to thank me for my participation.
The holidays are known for cookies and if you are anything like me the old “Cookies & Milk” routine is just…boring. I never understood why kids left Santa milk when he had so much work to do to ensure his sleigh was empty by Christmas morning. Wouldn’t a nice, flavorful hot cup of coffee be a much better option for the jolly old man? I know in my house leaving Santa a nice hot cup of McCafé Espresso Roast is really appreciated. Not only does it warm up Old St. Nick, but it gives him the momentum he needs to get through the night.
Granted, their are probably some McDonald’s open that he could stop at for a nice cup of Joe, but it’s really much more convenient to enjoy it in the privacy of your home. I know I prefer not having to go out but still getting that same delicious, fresh cup of coffee McCafé packaged coffee is known for. Whether I fresh brew it in the pot for all our guests or just make a single serve K-Cup to brew for guests like Santa each cup is still as good as the next.
What’s the best Holiday McCafé Pairing?
Chocolate Chip Cookies, Peanut Butter Cookies & PB Cookies with big kisses in the middle are a hit in the Samples Household. If you are drinking a flavored coffee, such as McCafé Hazelnut then you might want to try a nice Butter Cookie. For the rich Chocolate Chip cookies the Espresso Roast is a great pairing as the chocolate smooths out the blend and the Peanut Butter just works great with the Breakfast Blend. There are seven varieties that include various roasts and blends to pair perfectly with your favorite holiday cookie. Made with 100% Arabica beans, you can find McCafé packaged coffee at your local grocer either the K-Cups (Breakfast Blend, Hazelnut, Premium Roast, Premium Roast decaf, French Vanilla, French Roast) or ground (Breakfast Blend, Hazelnut, Premium Roast, Premium Roast decaf, French Vanilla, French Roast, Colombian, Espresso Roast). The average non-promotional prices are as follows:
- 12 oz roast & ground: $7.49
- 12 count K-Cups: $8.39
- 18 count K-Cups: $11.99
