Tastes like expensive coffee

JANICE RISTOW from La Vista, NE

I keep the small 5oz cans of Carnation Evaporated milk in my pantry to use when I run out of my powdered creamer. Sometimes I use it just because I want to treat my self to something special. The Carnation Evap. Milk in my coffee tastes like expensive coffee you would buy at a coffee shop.

I've always been a coffee drinker ever since I can remember. Although once I started working 3rd shift I need to tone down my coffee so I could drink through my whole shift and someone sugguested vapporated milk and I was hooked.

BONNIE KNUTSON from COTTONWOOD, MN

I have always had my coffee black, but now that I am older it doesn't sit as well any more, so I started using carnation milk as my folks used to. It is great, I used to get coffee or carnation with a little coffee when I was very little. It was good then and it is now.

As far as I can remember growing up in Hawaii, mom and dad always used Carnation evaporated milk in their morning coffee. I have used it ever since I've been drinking coffed which is over 40 years. Delicious. Wouldn't drink coffee any other way.
Don't do mornings without it!

I am not a morning person, knowing I wake up to creamy rich coffee with carnation makes my day =) Couldn't get throught the day with out it!

VANETA HARPER from AVONDALE, AZ

Nothing better than a hot cup of coffee lightened with Carnation Evap milk, the taste is so much better than powder creamers.

Miriam Allistone from ARVA, ON

I always use Carnation milk in my coffee, and will not have it any other way. I would rather have no coffee if I have no Carnation milk, the taste is just not there and I do enjoy my coffee.

Carnation evaporated milk is wonderful. Is there any other kind? I have been using it for over 80 years. As a child it was the only thing to use in hot cocoa.

When I was in college I went to visit my roommate and her family in Long Island New York. Her mother said try the evaporated milk in your coffee. That was it --I was hooked and 20 years later, still enjoying it.

Wilma Avery from COMFORT, TX

I have been using evaporated skim milk in my coffee and hot tea for years now. I love it and feel it is a wonderful way to cut fat out of my diet, painlessly. I am glad to see others enjoying it, too.
I don't miss the fat!

Mary Koenig from TUCSON, AZ

And the fact that it counts as a serving of milk over the course of my morning is just 'icing on the cake!' :)
It's Great!!!

Judy Myers from MIDLAND, GA

My husband started using Carnation milk in his coffee and the only problem is, I have started using it more in any recipe that calls for milk so, it's hard for him to keep it around for his coffee!!!

I sure had my doubts about this, but I gave it a try. Glad I did, it is very good! Now I don't have to use cream any more.

Nancy Hyde from Hixson, TN

Carnation fat free evaporation milk is great in coffee. I especially like it in hazelnut flavored coffee. I remember when I was growing up my parents used the regular Carnation evaporated milk in their coffee.
Excellent

Gives your coffee a very smooth, rich taste. Makes everyday coffee taste like it came from a coffee house.
Mmmmm good

A great replacement but a better all time use.

I grew up with putting Carnation Evaporated Milk in your coffee. My parents did it and so did my grandparents. Coffee just doesn't taste as good without it!
Creamy Rich Coffee

Kimberly Holder from Gadsden, AL

I was wandering through the receipes and saw this one for the coffee. It just so happened I was out of half & half this morning, so I had to use regular milk. It wasn't great, but it got me through. So I just made some coffee with the Carnation Evaporated Milk and it is great!! What a treat. I have just found a replacement for the half & half.
Yum!

Amy Kelly from Englewood, CO

What a good idea! Tastes wonderful!
Ease, availability and doesn't go bad

A Mac Phee from RI

I've been doing this trick for years. Regular milk, half and half, and cream can go bad plus if there's company for someone like me who doesn't regularly drink coffee, this is a help in a pinch!
Coffee was much better!

Susan Kuchera from Canton, MI

What a great idea. I'll use this often. Thank you.
Rich and Creamy

veta Dunning from Los Angeles, CA

My grandparents used Carnation Evaporated Milk in their coffee and I use it in mine. It adds a rich delicious creamy texture to coffee that you just can't get with anything else.
Creamy Rich Coffee

Rosa Angon from Richmond, BC

Carnation Evaporated Milk has been used in my household for over forty years, my mother taught me to use it in just about everything, coffee, mashed potatoes, soups, puddings, flan, hot delicious oatmeal during the cold season, and believe or not! it was a source milk when raising my babies, and they still got their calcium! So drink up! with Carnation Evaporated Milk and if you are counting calories try the non-fat, it's just as delicious. Bon apetite!
Wow!! My coffee was creamy...

Kelly Chandler from Highlands, TX

I ran out of coffee creamer and had read on the website about using the evaporated milk as a substitute. I was pleasantly suprised. Thanks.
Best Coffee

Dorothea Schultz from Naugatuck, CT

I've been using Carnation Milk in my coffee forever. The color and flavor are perfect every time and it never curdles like sometimes happens with cream, if your coffee is to hot. Try it, you'll like it.
CREAMY RICH COFFEE

Betty Pendley from Bonne Terre, MO

WHENEVER I SEE CARNATION EVAPORATED MILK, I REMEMBER MY GRANDMA. SHE ALWAYS STARTED HER DAY WITH 2-3 CUPS OF COFFEE WITH CARNATION EVAPORATED MILK IN THEM. SHE NEVER USED ANYTHING BUT CARNATION!! I FIGURE, WHAT WAS GOOD FOR GRANDMA, IS GOOD FOR ME! CARNATION MAKES COFFEE RICH AND SMOOTHE.
Coffee Treat

Shelli Gary from Dexter, MI

Adding Carnation evaporated lowfat milk to my coffee was such a treat! At only .5g of fat in 2T. compared to 3.5g fat in 2 T. half & half, and twice the amount of calcium as half & half, it is clearly the healthier choice... and it tastes wonderful! (I also made iced mocha coffee with Carnation lowfat evaporated milk and chocolate syrup... it was great!) YUM!
Good Memories

Brianna Dellheim from Waddell, AZ

I had a neighbor, who has since moved, that always poured a great cup of coffee. The secret they told me was in putting in the Carnation milk first and letting it gently mix itself.
