If you are like me, you like to have something sweet after dinner. I also like to have a cup of coffee too. This dessert coffee is a perfect combination of the two.
I’m sure that I am not the only coffee addict around here. I love it in the morning, afternoon and evening. Not too late in the evening though. I really don’t mind having hot coffee in the summer. It might be hot outside but that is why they have AC!! Hehe, I love to curl up with a nice cup of coffee while its 100 degrees outside and 75 inside!
I recently learned that Seattle’s Best Coffee, which is a part of Starbucks Corporation, has teamed up with celebrity chef Jeff Mauro to launch the Red Cup Showdown. Red Cup Showdown is a coast-to-coast search at state fairs and on Facebook to find the most creative new coffee drink. The grand prize winner will be awarded with $10,000 and the chance to have their coffee drink featured at Seattle’s Best Coffee locations across North America. WOW! You have got to go and ever this contest!!
Check out the #RedCupShowdown at one of these fairs, if you are near!
