| Lisa Lillien (aka Hungry Girl) and I enjoy Dunkin' Donuts coffee. |
First off, I love donuts (as you may know) and I love coffee, so when Dunkin' Donuts invited me to taste their new Bakery Series flavored coffee line, let's just say they didn't have to twist my arm.
When I found out that Hungry Girl creator Lisa Lillien was also on board, I was even more in—if that's possible.A few other bloggers and I met up at Hungry Girl HQ in LA and tasted coffee flavors, including Apple Pie, Blueberry Muffin and Glazed Chocolate Donut. Yes, you heard that right.
To be honest, I wasn't sure how I'd like mixing fruit flavors with coffee, but I was especially surprised by the Blueberry Muffin flavor, which was doubly good with milk and sugar. Yum. It really tasted as if I'd taken a bite of muffin and a sip of coffee at the same time.
While we were there, Hungry Girl shared some fun (and low-calorie!) recipes for yummy coffee drinks.
Here's my favorite. Enjoy!
