BulletproofInstaMix Original Unflavored Keto Coffee Creamer Packets, Pack of 14, Powdered Grass-Fed Butter and Brain Octane C8 MCT Oil, Supports Brain Function

After having two babies in 3 years I was ready to lose the weight and take my body back. Focus on me without feeding another being off me...and get back to feeling good! I read the Bulletproof Diet and it made perfect sense and seemed easy for my busy lifestyle. So I ordered this, mixed it in my coffee the next day and haven't looked back in a week. I am not hungry until 1pm or 2pm if at all. I am super happy and focused at work. My sleep is fantastic. My mood is stable. Got bloodwork done and it's perfect!It's for a very creamy consistency. I use a small coffee whisk to break through the clumpiness and it becomes a divine Narnia cup of delight. It smells great and is super easy to pop in my coffee and hit the road before work. I don't have to think! I am also losing bloat which is great.

So yes, this bulletproof Coffee Creamer (French Vanilla) is expensive. However, if you are familiar with a few things this is amazing and worth it.*Key points. Mixing, Flavor and Cost.**Side not. Yes it does 'smell' unpleasant. But it tastes good.The mixing. This can take time. Now if you have ever been a kitchen person and know how mixing powdered ingredients into liquid ingredients works, this is easy. If not it may take practice. It is somewhat like your powdered (coffee mate) type creamers. Just a little slower mixing. You need to allow it to sit and slowly dissolve. If mixed improperly you will get clumps. You need to allow the creamer to 'dissolve' before mixing. To fix this you can go to a dollar store or Walmart and get a cheap hand held frother. This will speed up the process. Highly recommend doing so or the clumps most likely will be an issue.The 'flavor'/'sweetness'. I only use 1 scoop a day. My coffee cup is about 2 cups. 1 scoop is a perfect amount. (If my coffee cup was only 1 cup. I would only use a max of half a scoop) As I drink my coffee I slowly top off my cup which also helps with the flavor and sweetness. I also mix my coffee with butter and heavy cream.This is how I do it.* Add butter to cup, fill cup halfway with coffee. I start with 2-3 TBS of butter. (You have to froth the butter until it is well mixed or you will have a layer of melted butter on top.) I then add a little more coffee to cup. Froth a second or two. I then add the Coffee creamer. (Froth good to avoid clumps.) When well mixed I add a touch more coffee. Just enough for about 2-4 TBS of Heavy Cream to be added to your cup. Once Bulletproof creamer is well mixed with coffee and butter, I add Fresh Local Heavy Cream. This combination counteracts the sweetness/flavor and cools the coffee enough to start drinking.** I do HIGHLY recommend a hand held electric Frother. It will speed the process up.This does take time to properly mix. If you are in a 'rush' may be slightly inconvenient. Again if properly mixed it is indeed worth it.Cost! Yikes!! According to coffee pots I make '6 cups'. With my large cup that works just fine for me. Considering that, and I only use 1 scoop of Bulletproof coffee creamer a day. I can justify the cost. It works out that 1- 14.8oz tub of Bulletproof Creamer will last me about 1 month. All at once I cringe at the cost at checkout. *If you have to have your coffee extremely sweet and drink coffee throughout the day, it may not be as cost effective. (Simply depends on your creamer/coffee ratio) as well as your creamer/coffee intake throughout the day.* For me, the bulletproof creamer works out to roughly (rounding evenly) about $1 a day. So to me it is worth it for the benefits of the creamer.Long review I know, I am sorry. I am trying to explain a little bit in regards to the negative reviews while also adding my tips and the selling points that got me.Just as any food product/recipe you need to find your techniques and desired flavors/results. Just as you would when trying a 'new' recipe. You follow directions first time. Then you tweak the recipe and make it your own.I hope this review is helpful for making an educated decision on whether to try or not try this product.

I tried this creamer because I wanted a less-processed alternative to the ones you can buy in the dairy section of the grocery store. So far, I've tried the Peppermint Mocha and the Pumpkin Spice.Pros:- Very creamy and stands up to the bitterness of the coffee. Makes it enjoyable (I get stomach aches from black coffee due to the acid content)- The Peppermint Mocha is a nice balance of peppermint and chocolate.- The Pumpkin Spice has organic ingredients I can pronounce and it smells amazing.- Blending the powder in the coffee with a milk frother makes it super frothy and foamy, which is nice. It reminds me of a cappucino.- Having drank a cup of coffee with this creamer every day for the last two weeks, I can say I dont get my post-coffee jitters like I used to, and I feel more alert and focused through the workday. Definitely no crash afterward.Cons:- It is a more expensive way to flavor my coffee so it's definitey a splurge.- At first taste, you can definitely tell it's sweetened with Stevia. There's a metallic aftertaste to me that lingers a lot longer in the pumpkin spice than in the peppermint mocha. The strength of that depends on how much you use in your coffee.- I was let down on the taste of the pumpkin spice. I would have liked something stronger, spice wise. I've compromised and just add my own ginger and cinnamon to it to kick it up a notch.- For my personal taste, I use about a scoop and a half in a normal coffee cup. The instructions say that it's a scoop per 8 oz, and most of my coffee mugs are 14+ ounces, so the container doesn't last very long. I've gone through almost all of the peppermint mocha in a little over two weeks (the container says it's 28 servings - just know that's 28 scoops, basically).- You definitely need a mixer to or milk frother to blend it in easily with no clumps.Overall, worth a shot. Not sure if I'll keep investing it long-term.

I really enjoy Bulletproof creamers, especially the pumpkin spice. They're a bit sweet so I don't use a full serving. Use a frother to blend in to your coffee. Find my mind is much sharper with use.
