One of my favorites as well as my "secret recipe" approved by my friends hihi...

3 teaspoons of nescafe espresso mixed into 1 bottle of pokka cappuccino then shake well.

It's like instant + brewed coffee combo, sometimes the kaw2 taste very addicting. I drink this combo almost everyday. I made one for my friend he literally finished that 500ml bottle in less than a minute!

If the pokka cappuccino had more milk in it then it would be heavenly.

anyone still drink g7, isit good?

g7 is a vietnamese brand 3in1 coffee, but if you want to copy the taste of fresh brewed vietnamese coffee, use condensed milk instead of creamer and nescafe azera espresso because it has a blend of fresh ground coffee and instant coffee, which gives a better taste.

I heard instant coffee especially the 3in1 is bad for health.. those artificial stuffs they add in actually can damage brain?

Never go for 3in1 and never go for malaysian white coffee. Why?

Yes, anything that has creamer in it is bad for health. You are literally adding palm oil as well as other chemical stuffs in your beverages rather than milk fat or soy protein.

What about white coffee? I wouldn't say it's bad but the process making it doesn't sound appetizing to me. Cheapest liberica coffee beans are roasted with margarine and sugar until burnt, that explains why white coffee is so ironically dark, let alone adding it with condensed or evaporated milk that again, have palm oil as fillers. Not just white coffee alone even Kapal Api, vietnamese drip coffee and all "kopi campuran" are made by the same process.

Do your body a big favor, buy only pure coffee granules and mix with milk. Avoid artificial creamer at best.

There is an instant coffee that i particularly like after tried the first time. It's Bru coffee from India and it's pretty common in every Indian household. Bru instant coffee has 70% coffee and 30% chicory herb, when mixed with milk it gives a very creamy and pleasing aroma. Even making only kopi-o the coffee has a very delightful herbal taste. However i can only find Bru coffee in Mydin and Hero supermarket, not sure about others.

no love for essenso here? the best plain coffee for me compared to indocafe and nescafe.

Im a big fan of Essenso colombian blend microground coffee. Tastes pretty close to the real Americano.

Indocafe, nescafe alike are coffee granules. This colombian blend mixes microground coffee beans and instant coffee, that's why it has a very nice roasted flavor.

Just back from Singapore and managed to grab a few cans of these korean coffee. After tasted all the canned coffee, including the milk tea, i think Maxwell colombian is the best, followed by Samyang espresso. Maxwell has good roasted aroma just like a fresh brewed coffee. The rest are either just sweet or the coffee aroma not so appealing. Worst is the Kwality milk coffee bought at Mustafa center, very creamy but doesn't taste anything like coffee. The royal milk tea btw, was quite nice. It has the tea aroma and not overly sweet. Slightly better than pokka milk tea and most bottled milk tea sold at Mix.com and Family mart. Definitely can not compare to homemade milk tea but still considered good for canned milk tea on the go.

UCC actually carries a lot of good instant coffee such as the blue mountain blend and charcoal roasted blend. But here's a japanese brand ground coffee that i particularly like, it's the Key Coffee special blend. To me it has the perfect balance of sourness, body and aroma.

Its color is black but not dark roasted, it tastes somewhere between light and medium roasted but has a full body, not too overly oily even brewed using a french press or just ordinary tea strainer.

No wonder it is priced at around rm35 for 200g ground coffee sold at village grocer. Quite pricey for regular coffee drinker but i think it's fine to indulge yourself once in a while.

Sitting at home during lockdown period, have u guys tried out the tiktok viral whipped coffee aka beaten coffee (existed long time ago)? U whip instant coffee and water with an electric handmixer until fluffy then pour on top your favorite milk.

Vs the beaten coffee which is done manually by hand. Couldn't have thought such thing also can go viral. I bet whipped coffee must taste like foamy cappuccino.
