I know that I can't be the only one that loves the holiday drinks offered at Starbucks, Dunn Bros, Caribou etc. What I don't love is the calories, up to 500 per drink!!! Anyway, I was experimenting and found a great substitute, which saves not only calories, but also some money....Brew your own coffee, add 1 tbsp of CoffeeMate Peppermint Mocha, and if wanted, top with lower calorie Redi Whip. The total calories are 55....as opposed to 500, plus it tastes AWESOME!!! I was just a tad excited and wanted to share :)

Hey Erin,

Thanks for sharing! Where did you find the 'coffeemate peppermint mocha'? And is that the powder or liquid?

Thanks - can't wait to give it a try :O)

Hi Lisa,
I found it at Target Greatland, but I think you should be able to find it at any grocery store. It is the liquid form, so it should be in the dairy section. There is also a Gingerbread flavor and Eggnog flavor as well :)...Enjoy, and have a great Thanksgiving!
