I have been a self-confessed coffee fanatic since I
was probably about 14/15 years old.
Coffee is like a fifth limb to me, I actually fear the days when I don’t
have time for my morning brew because I honestly struggle to function without
it. It’s definitely not a healthy
relationship that I have with my favourite hot beverage, but hey, I’m happy and
breathing. That’s all that matters for
now.
Beanies flavoured coffee have been a favourite
brand of mine for very many years now, after my mum and dad came across their
small but exciting range in a Sainsburys store during one of their Christmas
shops. Irish Cream, Almond Amaretto and
Cinder Toffee were the three flavours that introduced me to the wonderful world
of Beanies, and the start of a beautiful (and obsessive) relationship.
This was a familiar screen for a very long time... |
Over the years since I have been following and
purchasing from Beanies, they’ve created some amazing flavours which I (and my
mum) have fallen in love with. I’ve
witnessed the birth of the new and improved Very Vanilla, the mouth-watering Mint
Chocolate and the very latest and tastiest Coconut Delight. These editions have left me certain that I
will be obsessed with this brand for many more years to come, and I can’t wait
to see what delicious flavour they will bring to the Beanies family next!
(Banana Bread please?!) Chocolate
Orange, Mint Chocolate, Very Vanilla and Coconut Delight are my absolute
favourites right now, however I must admit, I am yet to come across a flavour that I don’t
love.
A new Beanies delivery calls for an Instagram post, wouldn't you agree? |
These flavoured coffees contain less than 2
calories per cup, they’re sugar free and each flavour tastes absolutely
delicious. For people who are trying to
be good and avoiding sugary snacks, I find that these coffees give just enough
flavour to try and control my constant sweet tooth (when I’m on a diet that
is. Which is not right now. Chocolate Digestives and Oreos are where I’m at.)
Every
single flavour is also suitable for both vegetarians and vegans – which is
amazing to me because you’d be surprised by what kind of random animal products
manufactures throw into their products these days. However, what I love the most about Beanies
is that they are not even unreasonably priced.
Each jar costs just £2.50, and when they recommend that you only need 1
teaspoon worth of coffee per brew, each jar will last you a decent length of
time! Beanies online almost always have
some sort or promotion on be it free delivery or a free mug when you purchase 6
jars – making it even better value for money.
Free mug anyone? |
In January, Blue Monday to be exact, Beanies ran a
competition on Facebook and I was lucky enough to win! They sent me a prize of one of their famous
Stashboxes which contained 9 jars of coffee: Almond Amaretto, Chocolate Orange,
Irish Cream, Double Chocolate, Mint Chocolate, Coconut Delight, Cinder Toffee,
Very vanilla and Nutty hazelnut. I was
over the moon to receive such a generous prize – and these yummy flavours will
keep me going for a very, very long time!
My winnings :) |
Have any of you guys tried Beanies flavoured
coffees before? What’s your favourite
from the bunch?
Until the next one,
