Ninety percent of the time, I drink my coffee black. However, there are times when my coffee needs some help in the flavor department or my sweet tooth kicks in with a craving that needs to be satisfied. That’s why I’m excited that Baileys sent me four of their non-alcoholic coffee creamers for review. Of course, I wouldn’t have complained if they sent me some of their alcoholic adult beverages, but that’s for another blog.

Included in the care package was their Chocolate, Crème Brulee, Original Irish Cream and Toffee Almond Cream. The Original Irish Cream is part of their original line of coffee creamers that launched in January of this year and the other three were launched just last month.

I can’t rate coffee creamers like I rate coffees, but I will say that overall I liked the taste of each of them and they were accurate to flavors they represented. My favorites were the Chocolate flavor and Crème Brulee. Plus, I’d even go as far as to say that they were better than most of the other kinds of coffee creamers that I’ve tried, minus Peppermint Mocha that one of their competitors produce. I have a weakness for that holiday flavored creamer, what can I say?

MSRP is $2.49 for a pint sized bottle or $3.99 for a quart.

Also included was four of their recipes, including one for Caramel Cream Lava Cake. I’ll be trying that one very soon.

Have you tried any of the Baileys Coffee Creamers? What did you think and what’s your favorite flavor?

Baileys Coffee Creamers Review: Non-Alcoholic But Still Delicious is a post from: Daily Shot Of Coffee

I’m not going to lie, I have a serious weakness for the White Chocolate Mochas, Caramel Machiattos and other sugar filled dessert coffees that chain coffee shops sell. When International Delights offered to send me two of their new creamers, I couldn’t say no. They promised that with their CoffeeHouse Inspirations Skinny Caramel Macchiato and Skinny Vanilla Latte I could replicate my favorite coffee house drinks at home, while saving time, money and now fat?

They are healthier. They each have 0 fat and 30 calories per serving. However, the taste wasn’t for me. Maybe, I’m too spoiled with the over the top vanilla lattes and caramel machiattos that I’m used to paying too much for. Of course, I may not be the target audience anymore. There was a time when I load my coffee with more sugar and cream than actual coffee. Now, I’m more into the discovering the flavors that different coffee beans naturally produce.

An Alternative To Expensive Coffee House Dessert Coffees? is a post from: Daily Shot Of Coffee

In my coffee today is International Delight Caribbean Cinnamon Creme. Yes, I drink coffee creamer. I know some purist might think it’s a sin, but it really does an excellent job of hiding the poor taste of a lot of the medicore coffee that I drink.

I’ve been picking of the Caribbean Cinnamon Creme on a semi-regular basis now. I wouldn’t say it’s my favorite coffee creamer, but it’s definitely up there. It can really turn a bland cup of coffee into something memorable. Ok, maybe that’s pushing it, but it really does make a an okay cup, something worth drinking.

International Delight’s describes it as the flavor of an exotic island with a creamy richness blend. I don’t know about the flavor of an exotic island, but it does remind me a delicious cinnamon roll or something along those lines.

Overall, I do like the International Delight’s flavored coffee creamers. I like just about every flavor that I’ve tried.
