I got this mix as a Christmas present and it's quite different. I was curious what was in it because of the smell of the mix, but as I drank it, I started to enjoy it. Definitely different from what I am used to. But I like it.

As other reviewers have pointed out -- the difference between this recipe and the 'gunline coffee' on this site is the sugar... And we all thought this recipe needed the sugar too!

Just made a small amount to check out the taste - which is delish! I tried it in a cup of hot water - excellent - then I tried it in a cup of coffee in place of the expensive flavor creamers - 1 tsp in a cup of coffee and a bit of sugar substitute- Perfect - I really like the nutmeg and cinammon flavor and it doesn't need refrigeration. THANKS SO MUCH for this keeper.

This was very good. After trying it I added another half cup of coffee crystals and about half a cup of sugar. I used 4 heaping teaspoons of mix, added water then 1 teaspoon of sugar free coffee syrup. Next time I will probably use vanilla flavored creamer.

just wanted to make a comment,some people complained that it needed sugar,I think it is better this way beceause people can add sweetness according to their own taste using sugar or sweetner.

My mom used to make this for company when I was a little girl (in the '60s) and it was called Brazilian Coffee. The only difference is that she added sugar and put whipped cream on top and sprinkled it with cinnamon. She would also make it with fresh brewed coffee by adding cocoa powder, sugar, cinnamon and nutmeg with the whipped cream on top which would melt into the coffee instead of using the cream or creamer. Everyone always loved it.

Halved the recipe to be sure I liked it. Used regular non-dairy creamer and sugar free hot chocolate mix and decaf coffee. Was good with 3tsp mix but next time will try 4tsp. Added a pack of splenda. I'm going to give out as Christmas gifts this year. :)
