michelle7898's Full Review: General Foods International Coffee, Sugar Free Sui...
There are many reasons why I use the International coffee sugar free Suisse Mocha coffee mix on a pretty regular basis. First of all I want to say that I first tried it about two years or so ago. My mother had tried it first and then recommended it to me. I tried it on her recommendation and have been very fond of it ever since. Of course this is me, I don't do it the tradition or way it is meant to be used. But it is still great. I will explain more about what I mean by that below in my "use" section of this review.
Details and facts:
The International coffee sugar free Suisse Mocha coffee mix ranges in price from one market to the next. The average price is $4.99 per 4.4 ounce can of it. The can is not round like your average can. It is rectangular sort of. There is a plastic lid that reseals tightly at the top of it. The foil under has a pull tab. Just rip it off and toss it in the trash and your ready to start making some coffee.
The taste of the International coffee sugar free Suisse Mocha coffee mix can vary on how you use it. Just using it all on it's own. Yo use about 3 spoons of it to one cup of water. This is a strong tasting Mocha coffee. I would have to compare it to coffee mixed with hot chocolate. For me the straight way is a bit too chocolate tasting so I do it my own way which I will explain below like I said above.
As far as ingredients go there is nondairy creamer (Partially Hydrogenated Coconut Oil, Corn Syrup Solids, Sodium Caseinate (From Milk), Dipotassium Phosphate, Mono- and Diglycerides, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate, Artificial Flavor), Maltodextrin, Instant Coffee, Cocoa (Processed With Alkali), Contains less than 2% of Natural and Artificial Flavor, Nonfat Milk, Lactose, Salt, Sodium Citrate, Aspartame and Acesulfame Potassium (Sweeteners). There is no sugar.
My use:
My use of the International coffee sugar free Suisse Mocha coffee mix is a little different then what they recommend on the can. I like the taste making it the way it is supposed to be made, but too much of a chocolate taste bothers me after a while. So I make my coffee in my coffee pot and then add a scoop of this. It helps me save on sugar to because the International coffee sugar free Suisse Mocha coffee mix sweetens the coffee. This for me give it the perfect taste and I love it this way. I also use a half of a scoop in a cup of hot chocolate to give the hot chocolate a coffee taste when I do not feel like making a pot of coffee.
I use the International coffee sugar free Suisse Mocha coffee mix at least five to 10 times per week. It is not like I use it in every cup of coffee that I drink. But I do go through it fast because my fiance does drink it the full way that the can recommends. So we go through at least 2-4 cans per month depending on how many times per day or week that we use it. It is certainly one item that makes it to the shopping list every single time that we go to the market.
My thoughts and recommendation:
The International coffee sugar free Suisse Mocha coffee mix is great. You can get other flavors such as Hazelnut or French Vanilla Cafe. They are good too but we prefer the mocha. To us it has the strongest and less sweet taste of all of the flavors that they offer in these coffee mixes. I have been using it for two years now. My mother still uses it as well. Thinking back, I have recommended it personally to about 8 friends an a few family members who also now like it. I even have a sister in law who comes by every morning for a cup before she heads to work.
I will continue to use the International coffee sugar free Suisse Mocha coffee mix for sure. I really like it. It has no sugar so it doesn't get my hyper like some drinks tend to. The flavor the way I make it really suits what I prefer. It does last awhile even with two people using it on a regular basis in our house hold. I have no complaints. I would recommend the International coffee sugar free Suisse Mocha coffee mix.
