The Budget Casa

We like our flavored coffee as much as the next person, but those designer drinks get expensive after a while. Here’s an easy way to make your own flavored coffee.

Use pure flavor extracts to add flavor to your next cup of Joe. McCormick makes a great variety of extracts, including almond, amaretto, raspberry and vanilla, all for around $4 each (the price of one designer coffee!) and available at any grocery store. The pure extracts are concentrated, so just adding a few drops to your ground coffee beans before brewing will enhance the flavor and make you feel like you’re drinking a “designer� coffee – which, in a way, you are.
