Brewed Coffee
For a perfectly brewed, fresh cup of coffee, remove the tab from the bottom of your silver coffee pod just before brewing. Lift the handle at the top of the Verismo, insert the pod and close the top completely. Press the brew button with the larger cup icon on it. Once Verismo has brewed your drink, lift the handle to eject and discard the used pod and then reclose the lid.

Caramel Brulée Coffee Shake
Add a half cup of Espresso Roast, a half cup milk, 2 tablespoons Starbucks Caramel Brulée Sauce, a handful of ice, a pinch of cinnamon and half of a frozen banana to the blender. Blend well. Pour into glasses and enjoy.

Blended Coconut Coffee
Add a half cup of ice, a half teaspoon of brown sugar, a half tablespoon of cocoa powder, a half cup of coconut milk and a half cup of strong coffee (try Sumatra Roast) to a blender. Blend on high until smooth. Pour into a tall glass, serve and enjoy.

Coffee Ice Cubes
Craving an iced coffee? Keep it cold and bold by making your very own coffee ice cubes; they won't dilute your coffee as they melt. Simply use your Verismo to brew as much coffee as you would like to make into ice, pour into an ice tray and freeze. Add cubes to your next cup for delicious, undiluted iced coffee.
