We have a Senseo machine at the office and we make one cup of our BRK Raspberry Latte at a time. Wash the cup between drinks, folks. Don’t be a slob.

And find the kitchen sink in your work-place, college, prison, whatever. Washing dishes in the bathroom is beyond disgusting.

Senseo Dark Roast pods, we believe, make coffee that stands up to the raspberry syrup best and allows you to have a raspberry-flavored coffee instead of coffee-flavored raspberry.

We have raided many a Starbucks in search of the original raspberry syrup. The new Juicy Raspberry makes us ill. We haven’t had to purchase it from eBay yet because we’ve found Barney’s raspberry to be a suitable substitute.

You’ll need 1/3 cup of skim milk from cows raised free from growth hormone. Are the hormones bad? We’re not going to get into that argument, but we do taste a difference when we drink straight from the bottle… we mean, when we pour a straight glass. Our favorite milk is, of course TG Lee fat-free.

Microwave your cup of milk for one minute on high.

Fire up the Senseo machine, pop in your dark roast pod and make one Regular cup, letting the coffee flow into the “steamed” milk.

What is a Regular cup? With a Senseo machine you can use one or two pods and make 8 or 16 oz of coffee. The more water, the weaker the coffee. The more pods, the stronger the coffee. The matrix looks thus:

Weak: 1 pod and 16 oz of water
Regular: 1 pod and 8 oz of water (BRK-style)
Lots of Regular: 2 pods and 16 oz of water (If you need two cups of Regular)
Strong: 2 pods and 8 oz of water

Once the brewing cycle ends, add two TBSP of raspberry syrup. Stir, relax, write a blog post.
