In An Instant

I'm probably the last person on earth to try these little packets of ready brew coffee by Starbucks. It's most likely because I remember what instant coffee used to taste like! These bear little resemblance to that big jar of Nescafe that was a staple in the kitchen cupboard when I was growing up. Using instant coffee was standard operating procedure back in the day, perked coffee was reserved for company and special occasions. I believe it was the advent of Mr. Coffee in the mid-1970's and the drip coffee maker that changed all that. The only similarity between that jar from days gone by and these packets is the instant part! Some days just call for caffeine... and quickly! I'm all set now, this is good stuff. Life is Good!
