    I am Jessica Randhawa, the head chef, recipe creator, photographer, and writer behind The Forked Spoon. I create delicious family-friendly recipes that anyone can make, and my website has over one million users per month.

    I am a coffee addict. If I don't have two drinks a day from one of my Jura Super Automatic Espresso Machines in my test kitchens, I get a headache.

    My absolute favorite whole beans to add to my Jura's is Trader Joe's Bolivian Blend, which is Fair Trade, medium-bodied, very low acidity, and has lovely caramel notes. It makes very nice espresso and ristretto - better than very expensive specialty beans and coffees.

    I am independent from both Jura or Trader Joe's :)

    10/10. this is beyond delicious. i think this is my new favorite type of tea to be very honest. this is so full of flavor and smells so good and tastes like a warm hug on a cold rainy fall day like today. i did add a bit of almond milk and a splash of lemon but the chai flavors are still shining through! I love trader joes everything so im not surprised I love this, go get yourself some!

    I don't really know how to grade flavored coffee but I'm a guest at a vacation this week so trying to be polite and laidback. This flavored TJ's is what everyone is drinking. I like it better than run of the mill flavored coffee and prefer it over general hotel coffee. It's very smooth and the maple flavor is clean and doesn't seem super fake.

    This ready-made coffee beverage is surprisingly good. Smooth, dry, balanced, and clean. It makes for a refreshing summer drink. Toeing the bitterness line, it manages to remain relatively neutral. Flavor profile is distinct, with a certain green nuttiness, hinting of almond.

    Cupping Method:straight from the bottle

    This roast is balanced, with just enough intrigue to make it interesting. Hints of lemon, chocolate, walnut, and a classic light roast flavor. I was pleasantly surprised, as I bought it on a whim-- I was in a rush to make cold brew
    (this review is for fresh brewed, however) and wanted a ground option. The bonus is that it was *so* inexpensive-- could this be the ultimate best deal for light roast coffee drinkers? One caveat: my experience with Trader Joe's coffee is that it is consistent until it isn't (meaning there is always a possibility that their beans/balancing could suddenly switch but the packaging would remains the same).

    Cupping Method:Vietnamese drip, cream with no sweetener
