Instant Cold Brew: 7/10
The directions for this cold brew call for 1 tsp of cold brew to 12 oz of water. This was wayyy too watery for me and I found that I needed to add at least 4-5 tsps of cold brew at which point I had no idea how much caffeine I was drinking haha. I was surprisingly shocked that this instant cold brew was better than I was expecting! In my opinion it was not as good as the #traderjoes cold brew concentrate because it tasted a little weak and not as bold and rich. I did like how smooth it was though and it paired well with some frothed oat milk. I will definitely keep this in my cabinet when I’m in need of a quick drink and I cannot wait to make whipped coffee out of this! Each container is $3.99.
Have you tried this yet? What did you think?
Soo good!!
It’s not very good in water at all. Mix it straight into your choice of milk, a dash of creamer if you choose, add some pumpkin pie spice, shake It up in a mason jar with some ice and it tastes like a paid drink

Omg yes! It should be more like 1 tablespoon than 1 tsp! I thought it was a joke 😂
Just bought this! I followed the instructions and ended up with watery coffee like you, but I think I found the trick with this product!
Place a heaping teaspoon on the bottom of a mug. If you have a Keurig, have it pour 12oz of hot water over it. It mixes perfectly! It comes out stronger and less watery. I poured the hot brew over a cup of ice and then added my cream. Highly recommended!!!!
I actually liked it. I put 2 heaping spoons and thought it was strong.

Noooo guys it’s so good I promise. Use milk instead of water and put in sugar!
I like it…It’s not bitter 👍
Love it and it’s insanely easy and smooth. So versatile ❤️
2 heaping spoonfuls for me with almond milk and i love it! I’d give it an 8 or 9/10!! ❤️
Tried it today, I used 2 tsp and it still wasn’t strong enough, odd directions!
Totally agree that it’s WAY too weak. To curb the caffeine I’ve doing doing 6oz or so of water. I think in the future I’ll just stick to the cold brew concentrate, but this option is good because you get more cups of coffee out of it than the concentrate, it’s cheaper, and it’s non-perishable/doesn’t need to be refrigerated. Acceptable in a pinch but I’ll stick to cold brew concentrate most times in the future

I make it with milk and their sweet creamer and use a hand milk frother. Tastes like coffee ice cream. Sooo good!
@ronnikat5 I still need to send this to you!
👍🏻 9/10 for me. Great price!!
I love it!
So helpful!! Sticking to the concentrate since I love the bold brews 💕 ☕️ 💕
9.8/10❤️❤️
like most TJ items, was lured into this purchase due to the nice package, but I found this meh. just like average instant coffee really. would rate 3/10
@torresevelyn try it tonight
Not creeping I promise. I got this for baking (I either make my own cold bre concentrate or buy TJ’s). Added 2tbsp instant cold brew + 3 tbsp milk to TJs Truffle brownie mix… was maybe too much coffee, but I love the flavor so it works for me. Have you tried/reviewed the brownies yet? I think they’re some of the best box mix ones ever, but batter too thick, hence the 3tbsp milk
