Vanilla flavored coffee! I hate it, ha ha ha ha. I agree with @coquicoin on this one, I can drink it with a little milk (homemade coconut or cashew milk) but I don't even like its smell when it's brewing. I'd get rid of it right away!

I still have a little left, as the only one who drinks it is one of my sister's. So I brew a little when she comes to visit. I add a stick of cinnamon in the bottom chamber of the moka pot--the one I only use for flavored coffees--to make the smell bearable for me. I love Sello rojo but I'd be happy if I don't have to see this one again!

As a favorite item, I'd like to show you my little coffee grinder. It's one of my most cherished treasures. It was a birthday gift from my eldest sister, four years ago.

I clean it with a paper towel every time I use it.

It's super useful and the size is perfect since I only grind 30-50 grams at a time ❤️😌

I hope you guys are having a nice Sunday! ☕🤎

That's the one! haha. And I think what I dislike most about that coffee is precisely its smell while it's brewing.

I like your grinder, it's cute 😍

That's so funny 🤣 Sello Rojo is really good in my humble opinion, but this one is infamous,ha ha ha ha.

My little coffee grinder says thank you ❤️

Yes, Sello Rojo is a very good coffee brand except for the vanilla-flavored one;)

I need to replace my grinder. I had a powerful one in the Philippines with many grind sizes, it went dead after a few years. So, I'll have to decide whether I want to get a manual or one that's simple and easy to care for like yours:)

Any sort of flavored ground coffee has always been a huge nope for me! I agree— the smell is awful, and the flavor just feels... off. 😅

Your coffee grinder is immaculately clean, that makes me smile! You can tell how well loved it is 😁

My husband and I used to try flavoured coffee from a Coffee Roastery with flavours that I didn't mind. I can't remember which ones exactly because that's like 15 years ago. However, we once tried a citrus coffee flavour and that put me off.😖

Thinking of this made me feel queasy 🤣

These flavored coffees...I guess somebody loves them out there 😁 99% ofthe times I prefer my coffee black. No sugar. But trying new coffee beverages can be fun!

My little coffee grinder shines like new 😋 No one touches it.

I've never tried coffee with coconut or cashew milk. I'm not sure if I'd like that at all. Vanilla, I don't mind 😅. I prefer vanilla more that fruity coffee, like orange or strawberry... YUCK!

I add a stick of cinnamon in the bottom chamber of the Moka pot.

Now, that's sounds like a great idea 👍
That's a good grinder and cleaning with paper towel sounds like the best bet. You're full of brilliant ideas:)))

I wasn't sure about coconut milk in my coffee at first. However, when I finally got to try it, it was a wonderful surprise. Both my husband and I are mildly lactose intolerant, so I always have a little homemade vegetable milk in the fridge--for little experiments.

I made this latte with homemade cashew milk. Another pleasant surprise! I can't tell really, but you might like it if you give it a try.

My little grinder is well taken care of. It's been with for four years, working at least once everyday and it's like new :D

Wow! What a lovely photo 🙌
I will pick you on that, however, it would be the coconut milk from a can, as it would be difficult to get dried coconut where I'm living in the Uk.
Gosh, I really wanna taste that coffee with biscuits now 😋

The only coconut milk I've had from a can was in piña coladas 😌 Dried coconuts are to be found everywhere around here; we're lucky. Making the milk yourself takes a little work, though but tastes a lot better--if you know what you're doing 😁

When I lived in the Philippines, my neighbours taught me how to make coconut milk from scratch. It was fun to do, however, I would have to wait until when I go back to Jamaica where I have coconut trees in my backyard 😁

...coconut trees in my backyard...
😍
You must have a nice place in Jamaica, perfect for a good cup of coffee, even if it's hot.

I also love Red Seal coffee, it's the one we use in our business. I drink it without sugar and for making coffee with milk it is very good. I really liked your grinder, it is still like new because, definitely, what is well cared for lasts for many years. I am about to buy a grinder, as soon as I get it home I will show it to you here.

Very good coffee indeed! I seldom have latte, but I agree, Sello Rojo makes delicious latte.

Looking forward to the photo of your brand new coffee grinder! 😁🖤
