Spring Texas News – The Woodlands Texas

If you are like most consumers, cutting back on the food budget is a priority right now as we traverse uncertain financial times. One way to save money is to make your own top-shelf liquid coffee creamer that you normally purchase at the grocery store for three to seven dollars per container. Here in Spring Texas, there are several places to buy flavored syrups you can add to milk, and sweetened condensed milk to make your own flavored coffee creamer. The initial investment will be a little more than you would normal pay for the prepackaged creamer in the stores, but in the long run it will save you quite a bit of money.

Take a fourteen-ounce can of Carnation or your favorite brand of sweetened condensed milk, and an equal amount of regular milk, then ad two to three teaspoons of your favorite flavored syrup, or extract like vanilla, or almond to the mix. You may want to put everything in your blender and run it on high for a minute to make sure it mixes properly. And “Bam”, as our good friend Emeril says, you have your perfect home flavored coffee creamer.

If you are not a frugal shopper than this experiment may cost you more than what Carnation and the other food makers are charging for your favorite creamer. The up side to making the creamer yourself is that you can dial in how much flavor you want, and can experiment with combination of different syrups, and extracts to come up with an original creamer that assaults your taste buds the way you prefer. Surely the manufacturers of these delectable creamers do no use the exact ingredients we have laid out here for you, as they would not profit enough to make it worth their while.
