A Little Different Taste of Coffee

Being a coffee drinker in the morning has been a little different in Thailand than at home in the United States. The difference is not only because I get up at 6:30AM when the children are up having breakfast out on the patio in front of my room. The difference is that the coffee is not brewed but rather it is made from instant coffee. The amount of coffee that is actually in the instant coffee I mix together with hot water is only about 11% coffee, the rest of the ingredients are about 48% sugar and 41% creamer. For the past few days I thought it was the coffee that was waking me up, but I was wrong, it is the sugar that wakes me up! The three in one instant coffee is still good, and the best part of it now is that the children have so much fun stirring the water and coffee mix that I no longer have to make coffee for myself. Remember, the best part of waking up, is someone else making coffee for you.
