Dark Horse coffee on a Friday. Trying to get a head start on the dulling effect my oxycodone will have on me. Wishful thinking, but I'm in a wishful mood this morning.
Fresh Roasted Coffee's Organic Drago Blend is the only thing that's keeping me going right now, tempered with some Coffee Tamer.
Finishing the final cup of Jamaican Blue Mountain in my coffee arsenal. Making sure I take time to enjoy it, but not too much time - don't want to let it cool off too much and lose its delicate flavor.
Jamaica Blue Mountain. The perfect chaser to a leftover Mexican torta sandwich for breakfast.
I am now drinking a coffee that has too many names.
Native American Sacred Grounds Dark Horse Coffee.
They put more thought into the name then they did into the blend.
It can be coffee time now.
Jamaica Blue Mountain.
2 packs Equal.
Scoop of Coffee-Mate.
Let the good times flow.
No breakfast yet - just a cup of Jamaica Blue Mountain, the dangerous way (i.e., no Coffee Tamer). Small sips. Small sips.
Continental Breakfast time! Cherry cream cheese danish and Jamaica Blue Mountain. At least *trying* to start the day off right.
Oh, thank God. My allergy medicine is finally kicking in, right in the middle of a cup of Jamaica Blue Mountain. I was afraid I'd never get to smell the stuff.
FRC's Organic Drago blend this morning. Skipping the Jamaica Blue Mountain because I need the higher caffeine level. JBM's been unable to keep me awake through my pain meds lately.
Second try - I think I hit the spot. Now, *that* is what Jamaica Blue Mountain is supposed to taste like. Wonderful stuff, worth the expense.
Ahhhh. Jamaica Blue Mountain has arrived. Brewed up a cup, and I'll be damned if I didn't over-sweeten it. 😞 Still tastes good, though. I'm just going to have to try again to get the right JBM taste.
AND NO COFFEE TAMER! You do NOT tame the Mountain!
In need of a late cup of coffee today. Trying some Dark Horse from Native American Coffee (https://www.nativeamericancoffee.com/products/dark-horse-single-cups). Pretty strong French roast, however the Coffee Tamer does its job well on it.
Trying Adagio's Bella Luna Blue Tea (https://www.adagio.com/herbal/bella_luna_blue.html) - yes, it really is blue, until you add some lemon juice, when it becomes violet! Tastes a bit like blueberry and lemongrass. Not bad - more show than flavor, but what a show!
I THINK I HAD MAYBE ONE TOO MANY CUPS OF COFFEE THIS MORNING
In need of an extra-large mug of coffee today, so I'm pushing the Coffee Tamer to its limits. Got a mixed mug of FRC's Drago and White Knight blends, and I'm using 5 packs of the Coffee Tamer to get rid of the upset stomach I usually get when I drink that much coffee all at once. Experiment starts now.
OH DEAR GOD I NEED COFFEE TO STAY AWAKE IT'S ONLY 8:45 AND i'M FALLING ASLEEP ALREADY HELP ME CAFFEINE
FRC's Organic Drago blend this morning. Not screwing around with the meh stuff today. I need to stay awake for a change.
In other news, I bought a new supply of Coffee Tamer. The stuff does the trick for burping and upset stomach. https://calciblend.com/product/coffee-tamer-packets/
I had two cups of coffee and still fell asleep again. Damned chronic pain medication.
