I agree with you on last year’s pecan biscotti, I wanted them to bring that back. I have though fallen in love with the forest almost for the vertuo line. I add some sweet Italian creme creamer to it and it tastes fantastic.
Someone else mentioned using the italian Sweet Cream with that pod as well and even trying it iced. I normally use dairy free creamers but I think they sell a small one of that. I’m going to get it ASAP.
@@coffeeandkay5198 I think I might have been the one to mention it under another one of your videos! Lol! They do sell small containers of sweet Italian creme creamer.
@@evanimark3241 lol. You’re probably right. Either way I’ve been meaning to try it so I’m definitely trying it now. I’m going to try it iced tomorrow and again once I get the creamer.
Siiiis, why am I just hearing/realizing OL & VL can be different for same coffees? Had no idea - thank you for a great review! I enjoy it as OL too. Now I gotta try both side by side!
Lol. Yes! And the OL is an espresso 9 times out of 10 and it’s usually better than the VL. Let me know what you think when you try them side by side!☺️
I’ve seen so many mixed reviews for these new pods, but I’ll give them a try to see what I think. Thanks for the video Kay! 😊 BTW, the Torani Amaretto syrup is really good. I’ve used it several times with different pods… 👍🏾 😊
The forest almond with sugar free Amaretto syrup from Monin with half&half is my go to way to drink this coffee! I wish I would have gotten the forest black but the last time I checked it wasn’t available on the site anymore! I can’t wait to see what you think of it. I really was underwhelmed with both the forest fruit and forest almond! I do think shortbread flavor would go really nice or even maybe the sugar cookie because it has almond notes!Thanks for sharing!
Thank you for watching! I was only able to get the Forest Black for the Original line. I will say I preferred the Original Line to the VL for this pod, it was much more smooth and balanced. I prefer the holiday pods from last year, the amaretti and pecan biscotti were much better than these.
@@coffeeandkay5198 Pecan biscotti sounds amazing! I wish they would have brought those back. I’m in to the holiday flavors and I want holiday pods to have some kind of nostalgic feeling to it! I have the peppermint pinwheel but I’m waiting to try them after Thanksgiving! My cousin grabbed the gingerbread in Canada for me and is shipping them to me! I can’t wait to try them both! To me the flavors they did this year just don’t say “Holiday” to me!
@@stephaniesimmons0723 the peppermint pinwheel was good, the flavor was just mild as well. I haven’t purchased the gingerbread yet but I heard it was a really subtle gingerbread flavor, which I think is good because that can be overwhelming. I think I’ll go ahead and get that one.
