Maxwell House Instant Mix - Café Français

Drinking this takes me back to the times I would sit with my Grandma and have a cup while watching The Tonight's show. Yes, we drank coffee right before bed, lol. She always had the General International brand but it's no longer available so I thought I'd give the Maxwell House brand a try. Really glad I did as it makes a great and flavorful cup that is easy to make. The directions call for 2 spoon fulls which does make a nice aromatic and flavorful cup but it was a little too strong for me. I cut the amount down to about 1 and a half spoons and that seems to work better for me. You'll get several cups out the small container it comes in but I do wish they offered a large size.

I don't really like coffee, so I tried a lot of brands before I settled on this one. Most are dreadful, but the French Vanilla tastes OK to me. I think I'm not alone, because it's always sold out in the store, and there are many brands trying to copy this flavor. I always hated the high price, and the sugar overload, but it's the only one I even come close to liking, so I paid it.Now, this one has the Sugar free, but still has the caffeine - Yay. For Years, you had to go caffeine free, if you wanted the Sugar free, but I need that caffeine in the mornings, and after lunch.Pros:Tastes good.CaffeineSugar free (and it doesn't taste horrid, as some sugar free drinks do. ie, Not aspertame.)Price is better even than Walmart price, so I'm happy. I even signed up for auto delivery.Cons:Auto delivery forces you into clumps of 4-boxes (ie you get 4, or 8, or 12, but not 5 or 6 cans, which is what I would prefer.)Auto delivery also forces you into monthly increments - 1 mo, 3 mo, etc, so if you run out, you're stuck waiting til the next clump of 4 cans comes.I'd like to be able to order 5 cans a month, which is what I use, but that's not possible, so I find myself rationing for the last week of every month. I'm here today to order a 1-off order of 4 cans, just to get ahead a bit, so I can stop rationing. I guess I'll have to sign up for another subscription, with 1 clump of 4 cans every 3 months, to account for it. Not exactly convenient, but hopefully it will work. (Not sure I can have 2 separate plans, but we'll see. )Overall, good coffee for a better price than in stores. Home delivery is convenient, if not always what I'd like, and this is the ONLY place I've ever seen it with Caffeine AND sugar free, so Yay! Keep it coming! : )Finally, Caffeine AND Sugar Free!

Why did you pick this product vs others?:I am a coffee lover,so it is easy to try something new

Fast delivery and great quality.

Delicious! Cafe Francais is my favorite of the International coffees. I couldn't find this in my local stores, but Amazon had it. The price was better than at my local store.

I use this daily in my cup of decaf coffee

My favorite and it’s sometimes challenging to find it locally

GREAT INVENTION/PRODUCT. WORKS WELL. THANKS.
