I am really anticipating drinking my first cup of Tully's Coffee Bellaccino Cinnamon Stick coffee! It will be available on Amazon in k-cup form soon. I've signed up to be notified as soon as it is open for ordering and you can, too.

I haven't found many coffees that have a good cinnamon taste to them which has been a bit of a disappointment for me.  From the reviews that I have read Tully's has not disappointed with this bold and sweet flavor. I've seen it compared to the taste of those fiery red hots I used to love as a kid. Makes my mouth water just writing about it.

So far every flavor and roast that I have tried by Tully's has been a superb cup of coffee. So, I'm really looking forward to the release of the Bellaccino Cinnamon Stick. 

Personally, I would enjoy cinnamon coffee all year round but I can see that some might enjoy it around Halloween, Thanksgiving and Christmas. How about Valentine's day? I guess we don't associate cinnamon with the day for lovers but I'm thinking about those red hot candies and those make me think Valentine's Day. If you have a coffee lover in your house, perhaps a box of Tully's Bellaccino Cinnamon Stick would be a great gift idea.

I had a friend ask me about the difference between a coffee pod and a k-cup so I thought a post would help explain this to both her and my other readers. A coffee pod is basically ground coffee packaged between two layers of coffee filters. They look like this:


There are a multitude of companies who are now making these coffee pods to be used in different types of single serve coffee brewers. The pods are usually less expensive than the K-cups that only fit the Keurig brewing machines and the T-disks for the Tassimo coffee systems. Basically, many people interchange the word coffee pod, k-cups, and T-disks but they are birds of a different feather.

Not all coffee pods as shown above are even of the same flock. There are 3 different sizes so it is important to make sure when you are purchasing them that they will truly fit the single serve coffee system that you own.

There is a small coffee pod (44mm) that fits the Melitta single serve brewing system. The medium sized pod (55mm) is for the Juan Valdez brewer and the largest size of coffee pod (62mm) which fits the Senseo, Mr. Coffee, Krups, Bunn, and other single serve coffee brewing systems. To insure that you get the best cup of coffee from your machine, be sure to read the label to make sure the coffee pod is meant to be used with what you have.

My favorite cup of coffee in the morning is the Caribou Daybreak Morning Blend. I love the citrus tones that balance nicely with the mellow nutty undertones added to the delicate floral notes of this coffee in the morning.

I keep a couple of boxes of k-cups for my Keurig Brewing System as a standard in my pantry. Even my husband who generally doesn't like the lighter roasts prefers the Daybreak Morning Blend by Caribou for his first cup of coffee of the day.

Don't have a Keurig brewing system? Not to worry, you can still start to enjoy this wonderful morning blend with your regular coffee maker. Amazon will soon have the Daybreak Blend in 12 oz bags for you to purchase and have on hand in your kitchen or office.

I think you will be pleased with the great flavor of this light roast coffee for morning or all day long. It has just the right blends to tickle your taste buds.

A little history about Caribou Coffee. The idea for the company was conceived by newlyweds John and Kim Puckett on a trip to the Denali National Park in Alaska in 1990. The couple started their first store in 1992 in a Minneapolis suburb and now the chain is second only to Starbucks across the United States.

If you are shopping for a nice light roast coffee for your morning cup, try Caribou Coffee's Daybreak Morning Blend. You won't regret it!

Bevs Coffee Break started out as a blog where I was talking about just about everything other than coffee. So today, I'm changing the cup I've been drinking out of and starting over with a new method of using my break. Instead of talking about all sorts of things, the blog will now focus on something I have a passion for....coffee and all that goes with it.

From this day forward I'll be sharing my favorite coffee flavors along with coffee makers, coffee cups, and even some coffee art from time to time.

I won't erase the posts that came before this one as they do have some relevance in my life. I apologize to the people who have been following this blog for other information. If you aren't a fan of coffee, I understand that you may not want to follow this blog anymore.

But if you are a fan of coffee and all the things that go with it, please come back soon and see what things I've found to share with you about where to buy coffee, k-cup coffee, coffee machines, arabica coffee beans, and more.

Until next time, I'm off to drink my next cup of coffee.
