Advantages: Cheap and easy

Disadvantages: Not as good as the real thing

I was waiting for a train once, and i thought I'd go get a coffee (i had a long time to wait). When i got there i thought I would try something new and went for the latte. I am damn well pleased that i did. I like my coffee but this was so much nicer. This was where i found a problem. I am a bit of a cheapskate, and to buy a latte costs more then making my own coffee at home. You see to make a latte it is suppose to be an espresso with steamed milk. To make this i need a coffee machine. Which again costs (and i hate coffee machines)

Haha, Douwe Egberts to the rescue. Out they came with an instant latte mix. Now its not the greatest coffee or latte that ive ever had, but for the price and ease to make, its damn close.

I find that its best if made with milk rather then hot water. However if you use half boiled water and the rest as cold milk, that works fine as well. Especially if your being lazy.

Summary: Well recommended as a cheap alternative
