Holiday Ideas From Eight O’ Clock Coffee

Looking for some great, last-minute holiday ideas for gifting and/or entertaining? Let Eight O’ Clock Coffee help!

It’s no secret that I’m a little bit obsessed with peppermint. When the holidays roll around, I’m all about the peppermint fudge, chocolate mints, candy cane coffee creamer…you get the picture! I think chocolate and peppermint are one of the best flavor combinations around. I’m also obsessed with coffee, so when you combine all three things into one, it’s like having all my favorite things in one cup! Our friends over at Eight O’ Clock Coffee recently sent over a complimentary bag of their new, and (Sadly) limited-edition coffee in Chocolate Mint. This delicious blend has just the right hint of minty fresh chocolate – it’s very light and smooth, which makes it a real treat to drink. I’m going to confess to you, we have already gone through the whole bag! It was THAT GOOD, you guys! If you love peppermint goodness as much as I do, you’re going to need to stock up on a few bags of this before it’s gone for another year. It would also make a great addition to a coffee lover’s stocking, so consider this for last-minute additions to your shopping list – makes it easy, since you can just grab it at the grocery store! It retails for $6.99 per 11 oz bag and you can locate a store near you by visiting EightOClock.com.

Sometimes it’s the little things that really stick with us, from enjoying a wonderful mug of coffee on Christmas morning to serving a special brew to guests. Eight O’ Clock Coffee have created a special selection of holiday recipes on their Facebook page that you can make easily with a regular coffee pot or a Keurig. For example, the photo you see above is of the “Marshmallow Candy Bar”, a cuppa that is created by brewing coffee over a bed of marshmallows and a small candy bar. You stir the coffee until the candy melts, then enjoy. Uh, YUM! To see all 8 decadent recipes, click here.
