I do. It\u2019s wonderful as it allows me to have many different types of coffee without having to make a whole pot and without having to worry about having several bags of coffee open (and quickly\u00a0deteriorating\u00a0in taste). One of the big producers of K-Cups is Green Mountain Coffee. Their coffee is spot on in taste. It\u2019s neither too bitter, too bold, too weak, too light, it\u2019s just right. So when I heard they were coming out with two new blends for their\u00a0<span>new\u00a0<\/span><span>\u201d<a href=\"http:\/\/GreenMountainCoffee.com\/Wellness%20\">Wellness Collectio<\/a>n,\u201d I was certainly intrigued.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p><span>The new blends (as seen above) are the Focus Blend and the Antioxidant Blend. At first I was a bit worried about how the coffees would taste with the addition of the vitamins and amino acids found in the blends. Don\u2019t worry &#8211; they taste just the same. In fact, I couldn\u2019t tell there was anything added to the coffee. But, as you will find out, the benefits are certainly there.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>First was the Focus Blend. It contains 50\u00a0mg of L-Theanine, which I have discovered is an amino acid that helps relieve tension and improves your focus. I had one at the beginning of the work day and I did seem to have a bit more determination and focus for the rest of the day. And, as previously stated, the coffee tasted great, so it was not a problem getting it into my system.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>The second blend is the Antioxidant Blend. It contains the antioxidant vitamins C &amp; E. Now, I am not saying that it helped prevent me from getting that nasty cold that everyone in the office had, but I was unaffected by that incident at least! That may have been coincidental but I did feel like it was a bit healthier drinking that blend.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>You can pick them up at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.GreenMountainCoffee.com\">GreenMountainCoffee.com<\/a>. I think it\u2019s well worth it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span>Have you tried it?
