Decaf coffee can be just as delicious and versatile as regular coffee, and can be used in a variety of recipes. In this blog, we'll explore some tasty decaf coffee recipes that will satisfy your cravings without keeping you up all night.

 

Decaf Iced Coffee

Decaf Mocha Latte

If you're in the mood for something a little more indulgent, try a decaf mocha latte. Brew a cup of decaf coffee and add in some chocolate syrup. Heat up some milk on the stove or in the microwave and froth it using a frother or whisk. Add the frothed milk to your coffee and top with whipped cream and a drizzle of chocolate syrup. (Or... just brew a Smart Sips Decaf Caramel Mocha Latte or one of our other decaffeinated lattes in your Keurig).
