So, are you ready to make your frozen coffee slush with instant coffee? Here’s what you’ll do…
Why I Love Waka Coffee
Now, you may be wondering, “Why should I try Waka Coffee?”
I’ve tried quite a few different instant coffee brands over the years, but none of them beat the delicious flavor that Waka Coffee has. The reason why Waka Coffee tastes so great is because you’re drinking coffee-shop quality coffee with every sip!
What is the Best Blend of Coffee?
Now, most instant coffee brands use cheaper Robusta beans in their coffee. However, most coffee shops use higher-quality Arabica beans. Robusta beans lack the amount and depth of flavor that Arabica beans have. What I love is that Waka Coffee only uses Arabica beans… meaning you’re going to end up with top-notch flavor in every cup!
With Waka Coffee, you can choose between a wonderful variety of Colombian, Indian, and Kenyan blends, which all have their own unique flavors. And if you’re looking for something fun and different, they even offer instant Japanese Matcha, too!
How Does Instant Coffee Work?
Instant Coffee is actually much easier to use than regular coffee grounds. Rather than waiting for a whole pot to brew, you simply dump the packet of granules into a glass, add hot water, stir, and you’re set to go!
So in less than a minute, you’ll end up with a high quality, coffee-shop style coffee… for a fraction of the cost!
How Should I Use Instant Coffee?
Now in addition to having fabulous flavor, there are so many more fun ways to use Waka Instant Coffee Packets! They’re perfect for busy on-the-go days, and make a wonderful addition to your travel essentials bag, too! Some of my favorite ways to use these packets are…
- At Home when I’m in a hurry
- At My Desk for Work
- Traveling + Road Trips
- Camping
- Hiking in the Backcountry
You can even use Waka Instant Coffee as a flavor boost when baking things like…
- Brownies
- Chocolate Chip Cookies
- Cinnamon Rolls
- Coffee Cake
- Glazed Donuts
- Granola
- and Tiramisu!
So as you can see, there are so many fantastic ways to use instant coffee. The creative options for where you can use it, and how you can use it, really are endless!

Such an amazing idea, to freeze them into cubes, and add it directly to your slush! I love the single serving packets . This seems so easy and refreshing! Cold coffee is much needed for me , it is really high temperature here in CA with all the fires going on. Thanks for the recipe!
Never Ending Journeys says
Thank you so much, Aarthi! I understand the high temperatures – never a fun thing!
