Stok Black - Pre-packaged Espresso Shots

This is a unique coffee product that was made for adding to an existing brewed cup of coffee.

It looks like one of those pre-packaged creamers you get at 7-11, you know 'creamer that doesn't require refrigeration'.

How does it work?

You simply open the small container and pour it in your coffee. It contains 40mg of caffeine which they say is equal to a shot of espresso. A standard cup of coffee has about 120-150mg caffeine, so you are not adding that much more caffeine.

It is VERY dark colored but doesn't have a coffee smell.

Comes in two varieties - one with sugar and one without. I recommend the one without sugar as the sweetener they use has an odd taste.

Look for these in places like 7-11. When I have seen them they are free like the creamers. I have also seen them in stores, sold in packages of 50.

The good thing is that is doesn't make your coffee taste stronger, just gives it a nice extra kick.

Recommended!

Whoa, I've never heard of these before, but I feel compelled to stock up on these!  They sound perfect for me.  Not too much caffeine, and not too much liquid.  I'll have to hunt these down!

By the way, if you look to the right side of the page, you'll notice that I updated a few things for you.  I added some factual information in the wiki, and I added a few tags for better organization.  For instance, tagging this topic "coffee" will have this review automatically placed into Lunch's archive of coffee-related content.  Let me know if you have any questions about that! :)
