Is it any good? I bought it today to replace my coffee house ccaramel macchiato skinny creamer. I love , love this creamer, but it has too many calories and sugar. I mix it with Starbucks Via ready lighlty sweetned iced coffee! man what a mouth full! I'm hopeing its going to be wonderful, and also do the trick.

    I use the "So Delicious" coconut creamer in french vanilla or hazelnut. I love it!! But it did take a few days to get used to the less sweet taste. I used to have a little coffee with my cream and sugar..lol..But now I love it.

    That sounds really yummy! I might have to check that one out. I did try the Almond Joy and Cinnabon creamer- those were pretty good.

    You can use 1 Tbsp. of actual coconut oil as coffee creamer, too. I like it with stevia in fresh coffee. Get the extra-virgin, unrefined, cold-pressed organic kind for some yummy coconut flavor. Here are some of the benefits of coconut oil, for anyone who's interested:

    I use coffemate coconut creamer and I love it but the calories....UGH!!!! I recently bought the so delicious coconut milk creamer but it isn't sweet at all and doesn't taste like coconut. My morning coffee used to be 140 calories and now I got it down to 92 calories by using only 1 Tbsp of coffemate, 3 Tbsp coconut milk creamer and 2 tsp of sugar. I know I will eventually reduce the calories by slowly reducing the amount of sugar but for now I'm happy that I was able to reduce the calories as much as I have.

    I never thought of coconut flavored coffee. I can get the flavor and not the fat! Thanks!
