I'm a huge fan of McDonalds coffee. I love just their regular coffee with some added creamer. So you can only imagine how over the moon excited I was to find out that you can now purchase McCafé packaged coffee in local stores! Have you seen them or tried any of the varieties? Do you have any favorites?
I am excited to report that I have tried the following McCafé packaged coffees:
- Breakfast Blend- K-Cup & Roast and Ground
- Hazelnut- K-Cup & Roast and Ground
- Espresso Roast - Roast and Ground
BONUS brew video of the Breakfast Blend. Doesn't this make you want to brew a cup of McCafé packaged K-Cup coffee right now?
I love having them in my home to be enjoyed anytime of the day. I have found that I enjoy the Breakfast Blend anytime of the day. It has the perfect flavor that I'm used to at my local McDonald's restaurant. I do not know if that is what they use for their all day coffee but to me, it taste jut like McDonalds. I have become a fan of the Hazelnut and since it is Christmas time, I do enjoy it in the afternoon with 1-2 tsp of my homemade hot cocoa mixed in. The Espresso Roast is perfect anytime, especially after dinner.
Here is my favorite holiday cup filled with Hazelnut McCafé packaged coffee, 1 tsp of homemade hot cocoa mix and topped with whipped cream, peppermint stick & chocolate shavings.

I have a coffee Christmas tree in my kitchen. Doesn't it look beautiful with all the packages of McCafé around it? I'm a serious coffee lover and my kitchen is called Susie's Cafe. I don't just have any coffee in my cafe. Now I can carry McCafé packaged coffee in my home cafe by just picking up K-Cups at my local grocery store. The coffee is made with 100% Arabica beans. Please do stop in for a cup of McCafé coffee when you are in town!
How about that! I like McDonald's coffee too.
