So here I am.. trying to make this a more regular thing. \ud83d\ude09 Recently, Starbucks released two new coffees in the retail channel (you will see me refer to this as CPG, consumer packaged goods) Spring Day Blend and Honey and Madagascar Vanilla. These are both pre-ground, and can be found in stores like Target or Walmart, or of course.. <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3cw4qvo\">Amazon<\/a>! I normally stay away from the flavored coffees, but I was really impressed with the Spring Day blend, so I decided to give the honey a go.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The first thing I noticed when I opened the bag was the smell. It smelled so good. So good in fact I immediately texted a friend to share my excitement. That hasn&#8217;t happened in a while. Since this is pre-ground, I started off by making a pour over. and it was absolutely delicious. side note: I have been so sick and congested, I haven&#8217;t been able to fully taste or enjoy things. This was the first sip of coffee I had in several days, and it just what the doctor ordered. Next, I knew I wanted to make a cold brew, so I just did it quick and easy in a mason jar. no real exact recipe, just 4 cups of water to 1 cup coffee in a mason jar for 16 hours. strain and chill.<\/p>\n<p>While the cold brew was steeping, I started meal prepping, and I randomly decided to make these kitchen sink style muffins.
