Let’s set the scene: It’s blistering cold outside. Snowflakes fall as the wind rustles through the trees. Even though it’s mid-day, the sky is shaded by a thick layer of frost-filled clouds. On a day like this, can you think of anything better than cozying up with a blanket, cookies, and a delicious cup of hot cocoa?! I thought not! The afternoon that I received Starbucks® Cozy Collection in the mail was just that sort of bone-chilling winters day. And it couldn’t have been more timely…
I squealed with delight upon opening the box, because clearly my day was about to take a seriously cozy turn. The collection included Starbucks® Classic and Salted Carmel K-Cup® pods, the softest blanket ever, a box of Madyson’s Marshmallows, Walkers Shortbread Cookies, a chic mug, and a $5 Starbucks Card with an exclusive offer on Starbucks® Hot Cocoa K Cup® pods. At this point, the angelic and charitable side of my brain contemplated sharing this amazing box with one of my lovely readers. Unfortunately for you, the devilish glutton that I truly am won over and I ripped into the collection faster than you can say “Selfish, much?!”. But no worries, for I am about to impart to you, my loyal (and ever-so-patient) reader, two gifts. The first gift is that I’ve included the fabulous recipes from the box throughout the rest of this feature. The second gift, well, you’ll just have to click on this link to find out (heads up, it includes a chance to win one your own Starbucks® Cozy Collection boxes!).
The Collection came with two delicious Starbucks® Hot Cocoa K-Cup® pods, Classic Hot Cocoa and Salted Caramel Hot Cocoa… naturally I tried them both immediately. The Starbucks® Classic Hot Cocoa was just as a good cup of chocolate should be – sweet and satisfying. The Starbucks® Salted Caramel Hot Cocoa was fun and unexpected, with a clear taste of sea salt and caramel mixed in. Each cup is made with real cocoa and non-fat milk, so you don’t have to add a thing. Plus, these pods have been created especially for the Keurig® brewer and are sold at local grocery stores, which wonderfully simplifies the process. So with the hot cocoa brewed, I plopped in a marshmallow, set out the cookies, made sure the blanket was close at hand, and got my cozy on…
So there you have it, that’s how I utilized the much needed Cozy Collection on a very cold day. Think about how you would put the box to use and make sure to grab some of the Starbucks® Hot Cocoa K-Cup® pods for your home!
