Best Instant Coffee

Ah, coffee. The one beverage that’s always just a cup holder away:

My favorite go-to coffee is the Emeril’s Big Easy Bold K-Cups, especially from a handy drink holder. It’s the best instant coffee money can buy in a K-Cup today. I like my coffee black, bold, and rich and this K-Cup delivers. Unfortunately it is so good that I run through this stuff far too fast. If you read its product description you’ll see that it says:

“Emerils Big Easy Bold Keurig K-Cups are a classic Parisian roast. Emerils Big Easy Bold is a thick, hearty blend. Its deep, dark color and invigorating aroma will definitely kick it up a notch. Emerils Big Easy Bold uses a minimum of 50% Rainforest Alliance Certified coffee beans.”

I like it because it tastes great, it is easy to find online or in stores where popular food and beverage items are found and it isn’t one of the flavored brands, so if you enjoy adding flavored creamers (like my girlfriend does) then you can do so without a hazelnut or vanilla grind conflicting with your choice.

This is almost without fail my weekday coffee of choice. On a Saturday when I have a long slow morning ahead of me, I might mix up my flavors a bit or try some unique grinds, but on a Monday morning all I want to do is let the dog out, hit the “On” button on my Keurig B40, take a shower, let the dog in, and pour myself a cup of the rich deliciousness.

There is cheap instant coffee and great instant coffee. The Emeril’s Big Easy lands in the great instant coffee category and fortunately doesn’t carry a hefty price tag along with it. The best part is that you can order this (along with many others) online at Amazon.

You want to buy instant coffee? There are a lot of other great traditional black coffees available in K-Cups that I enjoy as well, but if you are looking for a staple for your morning routine, or for that one brand you want to put on a monthly delivery schedule, look no further. This is it.
