UNASSUMING ITEM #1

If you are like me you LOVE coffee. You can't get enough. You can't live without it. And when you do go without it you have a case of the serious shakes. If you're like me then you are also too lazy sometimes to actually walk or drive somewhere to get the perfect cup of joe. That is why Starbucks VIA Ready Brew is beyond GENIUS. Now I know what you're thinking, how could instant coffee be any good? And 9 times out of 10 you are right - instant coffee sucks and can't compare to a freshly brewed cup. But VIA doesn't fall into that category. Starbucks actually figured it out! They ground the beans so fine that it makes the perfect cup of instant coffee. Like perfect. In fact, I bet if we conducted a taste taste people wouldn't be able to tell the difference between a freshly brewed cup and a cup of VIA. I like to throw mine in a bottle of cold water, add some vanilla creamers and a Splenda, shake it up and I have a killer cup (bottle) of iced coffee. I've made it with hot water too and it's equally as tasty. Starbucks definitely has the taste thing down but what makes this product even better is the convenience and size. A little packet of VIA fits in your purse or your pocket. You could enjoy it in a box, with a fox, in house, with a mouse, here, there or anywhere.
