Ninja Blender and Iced Coffee for the Summer Time

My trips to the expensive coffee shops have dropped dramatically.  What is the big reason for this change?  It all has to do with a blender.

I still like getting hot mochas, but it is really hot outside and I have found a shortcut to great coffee.

The shortcut is the ninja blender.  I use it to make iced coffee drinks during the summer time.  The ninja is great for making smoothies, but it is also a winner when it comes to making iced coffee drinks.

Just add the ingredients and turn that puppy on and you have a nice cold drink for the hot summer days.  There is no need to pay big money for a quick coffee drink to cool you off.

The ninja blender single serve cup will do the trick.  I am not giving up my coffee card yet.  I still like to pick up a good slice of cake every now and then.  The ninja blender is just putting in much more work than I originally anticipated.

Perfect Cup of coffee

After getting up in the morning, the first cup of coffee is usually the next step.  

Dumping the old coffee into the drain and rinsing the coffee pot is like the warm ups for a good game.

Getting the right amount of coffee into the coffee maker is kind of like a science.  You don't want to add too much to make the coffee too strong.  

Have you ever had coffee that was too strong at a meeting?  There is nothing that you can do to fix it.  Adding more cream and sugar does not help.  

Not putting the right amount of coffee in makes the coffee too weak.  This is just like drinking water.  

Getting that morning coffee measurement just right is what it is all about.  Not too strong and not too weak.
