Melissa - You're Responsible For My Latest Addiction!

[ditzyscrap]

OK, I've NEVER been a fan of iced capps or iced coffee...to me, coffee should be HOT, not cold. But, after Melissa's post about Big Train products, I was intrigued and was going to try to find somewhere around here that I could try some. Well...I went to Costco and they had a BIG freakin can of Big Train's Kona Mocha Frappe mix, and I thought I'd just give it a try.

So then this weekend we broke it out and OMG, it was SOOOO delish. We did it first according to the directions - Big Train mix, milk, crushed ice. Then we started thinking of other ways it would be good - so yesterday we tried it with icecream instead of crushed ice, and still with milk. OMG, it was even better - like a REALLY fabulous milkshake. LOL!

I think tonight we're going to try it again, but with alcohol in it, lol...gonna add a splash of Kahlua or Bailey's or something to it...I'm excited.

But, I'm going to get SO fat, lmao! Our can of mix is like 1/3 gone already...I'm going to have to run back to Costco and get more. And now I want to try the other ones I saw on the website. Mmmm...

Let's just say...it's SO good that Trev & I are bringing a blender with us when we go camping. LOL! Even mom would like it and that's saying a lot. We were staying with friends when we made it this weekend and they said it was WAY better than the Tim Horton's Iced Capps (which they LOVE, lol). So yeah. It's that good.

[scrapperjade]

Well that makes me sad... we don't have Big Train places here in Canada, and we can't ship the product here either cause of food laws. Well darn... some of those drinks look toooooooo sinful (the cremes... oh my!!)

[juliemarie]

I actually use a little bit of that in my morning coffee.... extra caffeine & chocolaty

[lhaslem]

oh yummy - that sounds awesome

[ditzyscrap]

I'm thinking I need to find the blender...I found the base but have NO idea where DH put the top thingie (he was on a smoothie kick for a while, now I don't know where everything went). I'm craving it already today, lol...not a good sign!

[my4boys]

My DH was just at Costco on Saturday..I wish I would have know about it then. The good thing is that I am gonna have to go pick up my pics there on Thursday so I will take a peeky and see if they have it. Thanks for the info

[~Julie~]

mmmmmmmmm I want one so bad now!! I dont have costco around here

[twentytinytoes]

Those are good arent they!! We bought it after trying it at the sample table at costco's but the first time I made it I filled the scoop all the way up instead of at the line and it was so strong, I was wondering what the hell I did until I looked closer at the scoop LOL. Now I have to go make one!
