I received my second shipment of yummy goodness (K-cup portion packs!) and I am one very happy girl! Just in time for summer, I am happy to tell you more about “Brew Over Ice” coffee and iced tea portion packs! I have always loved iced tea – I remember my mom used to make it when I lived at home, and she would always put a sprig of mint in the glass. There was nothing else like it. Even though I love iced tea, I haven’t made it often for some reason. Well now I have a very good reason to make it, anytime I want!
When I am craving a cold and refreshing drink, nothing fits the bill like iced tea. I received Celestial Seasonings Perfect Iced Tea K-Cup portion packs, in Southern Sweet Tea and Half and Half (tea and lemon).
I am also quite fond of iced coffee. Though I usually go to Starbucks when I am craving one, the cost prevents me from getting them too often. I had no idea that there were Iced Coffee K-cup portion packs for my Keurig (how did I not know this?), until I received them as part of the K-Cup Ambassador Program. I am not the only one enjoying them – my son also loves the Green Mountain French Vanilla Iced Coffee. It has been so hot here lately, and when we want a “pick-me-up” in the afternoon, these are perfect.
What is so different about the iced coffee and tea K-cup portion packs, compared to regular portion packs? Well, there is slightly more tea or coffee in each, ensuring the perfectly full-brewed cup! It couldn’t be easier to make the perfect cup – simply remove the little stand that you would normally put your coffee mug on, then place a 16 oz. glass filled with ice in it’s place. Insert your desired K-cup portion pack, choose the 6 or 8 oz. button, and press start! It brews directly over ice, so all you need to do is give it a stir, sit back and relax, and of course ENJOY!
I recorded a video for you, to show how easy it is to make a fresh brewed glass of iced tea or coffee over ice, with the Keurig machine. Please note that I did receive the iced tea portion packs after this video was recorded.
Do you love the “Brew Over Ice” tumbler in my video as much as I do? You can receive one too, when you purchase two boxes of Brew Over Ice K-cup portion packs. It is perfect for taking your coffee or tea on the go!
The flavors that I received are just a small sampling of all the portion packs of iced coffee and iced tea flavors available. I loved all of the varieties that I received, and cannot wait to try the others. The Sweet Lemon is really tasty – it has just the right amount of lemon flavor. My son’s favorite was the Sweet Raspberry.
