Runningforme82 Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 So I drink black coffee on W30 but I have recently come across this stuff and have been wanting to try it. I love a a mug of something warm in it during the fall/winter (get bored with tea though). No sugars but wanted to make sure. http://www.criobru.com/bru-benefits/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

frantastic Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I'm intrigued...does it taste like coffee or does it have a chocolate-ish flavor? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GFChris Posted September 30, 2014 Share Posted September 30, 2014 I'm intrigued...does it taste like coffee or does it have a chocolate-ish flavor? Yes. :-) More chocolate than coffee, re: the flavor I posted above, to my taste buds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TinaH Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Where can I buy some locally? I thought I saw someone say in another thread that Whole Foods has it, but I went there and couldn't find it. They didn't know what I was talking about. I'll buy online if needed...buying locally is just my preference. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the Crio Bru website (link above) and click on Find a Store to locate brick and mortar retail sources near you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sleeve Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I kill me some days. Go to the site, it sucks some money out of my wallet. Come back here a few hours later, Chris points out the find a store link. Five stores in the whole state, one 2 miles from me at a store I visit weekly.

TinaH Posted October 2, 2014 Share Posted October 2, 2014 Lol Sleeve! So, the flavored ones are ok? Yay - I'm going to buy Maya and a sampler pack. Great timing as it starts to get chilly out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regina Runs Far Posted January 29, 2015 Share Posted January 29, 2015 It sounds decadent, almost like SWYPO!!!!! If it tastes as good as it sounds, it will seem almost like cheating. I wonder why Crio Bru is ok, but not Almond Milk? I read the label of the almond milk we used to buy and all the ingredients sound natural, so I'm not sure what I'm missing...........

I read the label of the almond milk we used to buy and all the ingredients sound natural, so I'm not sure what I'm missing........... Almond milk is fine to use if all the ingredients are compliant. It's not recommended to just drink it by the glass, but to use it in coffee or in a recipe is fine. Many people make their own since it can be hard to find any that don't have off plan ingredients like sweeteners or carrageenan. Crio Bru is a nice alternative to coffee, but unless you add coconut milk to it, it's not creamy like hot cocoa, and it's definitely not sweet. I like it okay, but don't crave it and definitely don't want huge amounts of it at a time. It's less bitter to me than coffee and a nice change every now and then.

Regina Runs Far Posted January 30, 2015 Share Posted January 30, 2015 Thank you! I think I will try the Crio Bru. Yeah, I don't drink glasses of the Almond Milk, just in coffee to take the edge off. I'm not sure what a carageenan would look like in the ingredients. There were like two ingredients that I was not sure what they were, so maybe those are the bad ones................ I can do the black coffee ok, but my boyfriend really doesn't like it one bit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can do the black coffee ok, but my boyfriend really doesn't like it one bit. Carageenan would be an ingredient all on its own. You can post the ingredients of the almond milk in question if you still are not sure. It is also really easy to make for yourself. Google homemade almond milk and you will get a bunch of hits. Everyone has a slightly different process so best to look and see which works best for you. You could also try coconut milk from a can and see if you like that in your coffee.
