The Perfect Gift for the Perfect Cup

It’s hard to believe that the holidays are upon us. I tend to be one of those people who believe that holiday decorating and shopping doesn’t start until after Thanksgiving, and it’s game on once I’ve enjoyed my favorite feast of the year! In the last few years I have moved a lot of my shopping online so that I can find the best deals and also avoid the holiday craziness in the stores and focus more on celebrating the season. If you are in the process of making your holiday shopping list, I have the perfect gift for the coffee and tea lovers in your life as well as a great Cyber Monday deal.

The TASSIMO™ Home Brewing System! I have always been a traditional ‘pot of coffee’ kind of girl, but ever since I received the TASSIMO™ system I have enjoyed the convenience of making a cup of coffee, tea, latte or cappuccino anytime the mood strikes. It’s especially nice for an afternoon pick-me-up during these cold weather months.

Once you have it up and running it’s like having a coffee house in your kitchen! The machine is attractive and looks nice out on the counter.

My favorite thing about this machine is how smart it is. The brewer uses T DISCS equipped with barcodes that the brewer’s INTELLIBREW™ technology scans, and it identifies precise brewing instructions so you get a consistent cup every time. The barcode provides the machine with the exact temperature, water and time duration to ensure that you get a perfect cup.

It’s truly as simple as popping the disc in and pressing a button. Since the TASSIMO™ features instant heat up, your first cup is ready in under a minute. Plus, it’s super quiet and won’t wake up the whole house if you’re the first one up and making coffee. Another nice feature is that it’s adjustable for cup size so that you can also make coffee in a to-go cup. You can also customize your cup by adding more or less water.

And you’re not limited to just coffee. Like I mentioned above, there are so many beverage options including lattes, cappuccinos, chai tea, espresso, hot chocolate and more. They also have seasonal offerings like peppermint hot chocolate and pumpkin spice lattes.

The lattes are foamy and delicious! The website also features many recipes that allow you to mix it up and get creative with your T DISCS. If you think you want to give the gift of the perfect cup to someone on your shopping list (or add it to your own wish list!), the TASSIMO™ system and T DISCS are available for purchase at several online retailers including TASSIMO™ Direct, Amazon and Bed, Bath and Beyond. You can also buy the T DISCS in stores such as Bed, Bath and Beyond. If you are looking for a deal and want to knock out your shopping online, TASSIMO Direct is offering a Cyber Monday promotion where you can save 20% off of T DISCS and 20% off brewers + get two free packages of T DISCS if you use the offer code: TACYMON3 on Cyber Monday (see full offer terms below).

Breakfast + What I Bought at Trader Joe’s

I am such a creature of habit when it comes to breakfast. 95% of the time I’m craving a breakfast that is on the sweet side. That mostly alternates between smoothies or yogurt bowls with overnight oats, chia pudding or oatmeal occasionally thrown in there. On the rare occasion I go savory – it’s scrambled [...]

Life Lately: Summer So Far

Life Lately: Summer So Far

I want to bottle up this summer and make it last forever (well, maybe minus the wildly hot and humid weather that makes running a big thumbs down). I mentioned this in my last post…but I am really enjoying the slower pace and the days that feel like they have more space. While I’m trying [...]

Happy Memorial Day Weekend. It’s a very rainy one here in Charlotte and while I am a little bummed not to be spending the weekend in Florida with the fam or by the pool at our swim club (just opened for the season!), I’m also welcoming a slower pace and time at home. It’s been [...]
