I’m not usually one for iced coffee. I drink coffee mostly out of necessity, not desire - but I always opt for the flavoured options (the ones that taste less like coffee). This was an easy and tasty drink option! Filling up a travel cup with ice made it easy to brew iced. Using the strong feature on my Keurig kept the flavour from being diluted with the addition of ice. I found the coconut taste to be really really subtle. Somewhat present in aroma but more of an aftertaste than an initial flavour. It complemented the chocolate well. I find a lot of the chocolate flavoured coffees to have a really artificially sweet taste, but the addition of the coconut softened the overall flavour.
It took some fiddling to find the best way to brew it, but once I did it was an easy way to enjoy what felt like a more indulgent coffee (a departure from the norm!). Perfect timing for the first day of summer this week!

This ice cream. Just delicious. It is decadent without being too sweet. It strikes a perfect balance of offering a rich chocolate flavour without that strong sugar aftertaste. It is a really smooth ice cream with a velvety mouth feel (yeah I said mouth feel, we’re getting specific). The chocolate flavour felt more complex than your average chocolate ice cream. Despite the smaller carton size, it felt like it offered a generous yield. We got multiple servings out of it for our family, and we don’t skimp on the ice cream serving sizes usually! Another hit from Chapmans. Many thumbs up! -

I love this body wash! It has a very gentle scent that complements the goal of a calming bath time routine. It lathers well without needing a lot, so the bottle offers a good yield. It’s an effective cleanser for even the messiest kids! I have always shied away from any kind of soap on my kids’ faces for fears that it would be too harsh or drying. I did not find that with this face wash at all! It gave that extra bit of clean when water and a wash cloth alone wouldn’t cut it, without any harshness. On the whole it’s a gentle but effective soap for the gentle nature of kids’ skin generally, but especially for sensitive skin. -

This was a nice moisturizer for the kids. It has a soft and subtle scent that is soothing and not overpowering. It applies smoothly and is non-greasy. It’s an effective moisturizer, though not as effective as Aveeno’s eczema lotion at hydrating. I do like the feel of this moisturizer better - no residue and much easier to use as a daily lotion. It was gentle on the skin with no kind of adverse reactions. A great option for daily moisturizing! -

This is a nice club soda with a clear but more subtle flavour than other brands. I didn’t find this one to be as aromatic, but the berry flavour is clear. It would be a nice compliment to other mixes or as a nice way to add a little extra something to a summer cocktail. This one doesn’t go as flat as quickly as some other brands I’ve found. All in all, a perfectly fine choice in flavoured club soda! -
