Skinny Coffee? I know that coffee is naturally low in calories and fat free…but I am not one of those that can just drink it that way. In fact, my husband teases me that I really like warm creamer with Splenda instead of coffee!
That said, I do drink coffee all day – every day. I love it hot, cold or frozen. When I was contacted about trying Skinny Coffee I couldn’t wait for the box to arrive. Right away a couple of them went into the refrigerator, 2 of each in the freezer and 2 of each in the pantry.
My plan was to set up a taste for both flavors received, Skinny Coffee Vanilla Latte and Skinny Coffee Creamy Cappuccino.
Testing Methods:
Chilled or over ice:
Skinny Coffee Vanilla Latté: Sweet, smooth taste
Skinny Coffee Creamy Cappuccino: Not as sweet, had a stronger taste
Heated in a mug:
Skinny Coffee Vanilla Latté: Not quite as sweet tasting as when cold, but still pretty sweet, great taste
Skinny Coffee Creamy Cappuccino: Still had a stronger taste and I added a splenda to mine
Frozen:
Skinny Coffee Vanilla Latté: Sweet and smooth! Yum
Skinny Coffee Creamy Cappuccino: Stronger taste of the two, nothing needed in it
A little info from the company:

- Contains only raw, green, unroasted coffee bean powder that has been standardized to contain at least 45% chlorogenic acids

Recommendation: I enjoyed both flavors and would purchase them in the future. I loved the convenient containers. They were sturdy and held up well when tossed in my backpack. For me, I find drinking 11 ounces at once to be difficult, but with these containers simply screw the top back on and finish it later.

Well, I guess I have to go to Walmart. I usually drink the lite International Delights Iced Coffee in half gallon cartons, but his sounds like it would be better for me and I like the smaller size.
