Gevalia Café-Style K-Cups Provide Delicious #FoamAtHome {Review & Giveaway}

I would be willing to wager that if you asked a roomful of people to name fall holidays, the majority of answers would be Halloween and Thanksgiving.

Correct, but... oh, those people. Those poor, misguided people.

They're overlooking National Coffee Day!

That's right, Sunday, September 29th is National Coffee Day and I, for one, am planning to celebrate. And, although my regular coffee has been making me happy day in and day out for quite a while now, this upcoming holiday is going to be anything but ordinary thanks to Gevalia.

Because this year coffee has been given a major upgrade thanks to Gevalia releasing their revolutionary two-step single-serve café-style coffee beverages for Keurig K-Cup brewers.

Already known for buying the best beans in the world and handcrafting a top-quality product, Gevalia offers over 40 premium coffees that have a distinctively rich, smooth taste that's never bitter and has been served by the Royal Court of Sweden for well over 100 years.

But these days Gevalia is not only upholding the uncompromising standards put forth by their founder back in 1853, they have taken coffee to an entirely new level with their new two-step, single-serve Keurig K-Cup coffee made from real milk.

That's right, if you've ever dreamt of enjoying a latte made with real milk and topped with froth — all in the comfort of your own home — then now is the time to become a barista, my friend, with the new Cappuccino, Caramel Macchiato and Mocha Latte options from Gevalia.

I couldn't wait to try each of these café-style beverages and I love that Gevalia made them possible without needing an espresso machine, a latte maker or the hassle and expense of a coffee shop.

Instead, each one only takes two easy steps and, in under a minute, your drink is served.

First, simply open and pour the froth packet (made from real milk!) into your mug.

Second, place the coordinating Gevalia Espresso Roast single-serve k-cup in your Keurig and brew as usual.

Third, take deep breaths of the amazing aroma while you stir and enjoy!

You can't get much easier than that! No pots and pans, no frothing, no wasted time. Just pour, brew and drink.

Gevalia Caramel Macchiato

Each of the three varieties of Gevalia café-style beverages have ended up rich and delectable and I adore the way that I'm able to make them so quickly and easily whenever I want.
  • Mocha Latte — A creamy, perfectly balanced blend of cocoa and coffee topped with a velvety layer of foam.
  • Caramel Macchiato — Creamy and smooth, with the indulgent flavor of caramel, topped with a velvety layer of foam.
  • Cappuccino — Smooth, mildly sweet with subtle roasted coffee notes, topped with a velvety layer of foam.
The most difficult thing that I've found from trying all three has been selecting a favorite, as each one is so delicious! However, as I'm in the mindset that everything is made better with chocolate, I think that, in my mind, the Mocha Latte ends up edging out the competition just just a tiny bit...
