Are you someone who just can't get their day going without a delicious cup of coffee? My husband is definitely one of those people! Every morning he's in the kitchen brewing coffee, then he has to make the decision if he wants it black or wants the addition of sweetened creamers. Decisions, decisions! Part of the fun of having coffee is having those options to change it up each day. If you are like Jason, you are going to LOVE the new Ninja Coffee Bar™!
Ninja
® is transforming the way
Americans brew coffee with the Ninja Coffee Bar
™. Ninja
® has completely reinvented
traditional drip coffee makers by designing a machine to unlock coffee’s full
flavor potential and provide smooth, rich and well-balanced coffee in the size
and style that you want. Perfect for daily coffee drinkers and coffee lovers,
with the
Ninja Coffee Bar™ you can choose a cup, a
travel mug or a carafe, and you can choose from a variety of brew styles. From
classic rich hot coffee, to refreshing Over Ice Brew or even delicious hot
milk-based and frozen blended specialty drinks, you can do it all with one
machine.
Aside from the coffee bar looking sleek and modern, what we were amazed by is its Thermal Flavor Extraction™
technology which uses automated controls for Temperature Calibration,
Pre-Infusion, and Even Coffee Saturation which unlocks your coffee's full flavor potential with every brew! The Auto-iQ™ One Touch Intelligence lets you select the size of your cup (standard, travel, half pot, full pot), your brew type (classic, rich, over ice, specialty), and then the
Ninja Coffee Bar™ automatically adjusts for the correct amount of water use.

The box also contained a booklet with 40 scrumptious coffeehouse-style recipes. I made the Caramel Macchiato recipe for Mariah, and it was love at first sip! I then brewed Jason his regular black brew. He was so impressed with the way it turned out, he kept asking if I did anything different than I do with our normal coffee maker because he loved how delicious it brewed. He was immediately sold!
I admit, I am not a hot coffee drinker. However, give me any iced coffee any day of the week and I'm a happy camper! I'm embarrassed to think about how much I've spent at the local coffee shops, or even on those refrigerated bottles of coffee I buy from the grocers. I decided to try my hand at making my own iced coffee using the cold brew feature, and
OMG! It was AMAZING! Never will I buy another iced coffee from the shops again!
Ingredients:
3/4 Cup Cold Brewed Coffee
1 1/2 Tablespoons White Chocolate Chips (I use Ghirardelli)
2 Tablespoons Caramel Sundae Topping
1 Tablespoon Sugar
2 Tablespoons 1/2 & 1/2
whipped cream and shaved chocolate for topping (optional)
Directions:
Melt chocolate in double-broiler over low heat until smooth. Pour melted chocolate and caramel sauce into coffee; stir until incorporated. Add 1/2 and 1/2 and sugar; stir until incorporated. Top with whipped cream. Garnish with chocolate shavings if desired. Serve immediately.
