(More customer reviews)One of the big advantages of owning a K-cup brewer is the ability to make a hot beverage for just one person and make whatever they want (as long as you have it). During the holidays hot cocoa is a favorite drink for the young people in my family as well as anyone wanting a hot and sweet drink. Since I got my Keurig I have experimented with several different hot cocoa K-cups. So far, the Green Mountain has been the preferred K-cup, especially by the adults (there are some sweeter ones out there that some of the children like better). When I saw this new Cafe Escapes Dark Chocolate I decided to give it a try.
The first thing that I noticed was that it is made by Green Mountain! A couple of interesting notes on the box:
* You should shake the K-cup before using
* They suggest using the 8 oz. cup size
* They recommend that you run a hot water brew cycle (without a K-cup) after brewing the Cafe Escapes
It did taste a little richer than the regular Green Mountain Hot Cocoa but I didn't get the Dark Chocolate taste that I was hoping for. I also like it better when I used the next smaller cup size on my Keurig B70 (about 5 1/2 oz.). It's not as good as the Ghirardelli packets made for the Keurig but it's more convenient. I like it better than the Gloria Jeans which tends to be a little sweeter and lighter on the chocolate taste. There is not getting around the fact that the best hot chocolate drink is the one that you make yourself with milk, cocoa and sugar, but this is still very good and I will buy it again.
