Crazy days

Boo, I haven't had a chance to try out the other Memento sample yet  :(  It has been a crazy couple of days and I've been rushed to get out of the house, so I keep forgetting to bring a mug with me. *Fingers crossed* tomorrow morning will be a little more relaxed and I can make it before leaving  :)  Hopefully I'll have a review up tomorrow, so until then.... go here to get a sample of your own!

Nescafe Memento - Mocha

I was so excited to receive my first sample in the mail last week!!  It was from Nescafe and there were 2 samples of their new Memento instant coffee beverages - 1 was Mocha and 1 was Caramel Latte.  I started out with the Mocha one this morning since I prefer chocolate to caramel  :)  

Let me start by saying they are super easy to make - which is great for me with my lack of kitchen skills!  All you have to do is add hot water to the powdered mix.  It instantly became foamy, just like one at an expensive coffeehouse.  My water was a bit too hot, so I had to wait until it cooled off some to try it, but once I was able to it was delicious!  I have to admit that I'm one of those people who love the smell of coffee, but can't stand the taste of it so I was a little worried it wouldn't be chocolate-y enough for me.  My fears proved to be unfounded, though, and the balance of flavors was absolutely perfect! 

I'm hoping to try out the Caramel Latte flavor tomorrow morning, so another review will be coming soon.  And the Nescafe Memento Mocha flavored coffee beverage will definitely be on my next shopping list!
