I had never heard of the product called Choffy before I was contacted by Sarah Glancy. At first I was quite unsure if it would be something I would enjoy. But then again who wouldn't want to try a low calorie, 100% chocolate drink that is all natural and sugar free with the added benefit of some caffeine? I decided to review this wonderful product and was pleasantly surprised by how much I loved it.
The first time I made it was with my hubby and sister-in-law and we opted to just prepare it as we would have a cup of coffee. It is caffeinated although not as intense as a coffee. I enjoyed mine with Sweetleaf Stevia and soy creamer and a yummy strawberry scone, it was perfect.
I then made it again but wanted something cool since the day I prepared it the weather was considerably warm, 55 degrees in RI for January is quite crazy! I went with a choffy smoothie.
Choffy has only 20 calories per 8 oz cup and 2 grams of protein as well! No sugar, dairy, gluten or chemicals added. I made a cup, added some ice cubes,a banana and some sweet leaf stevia and YUM! A chocolate smoothie with a kick! Or have it INSTEAD of coffee with less jitters from caffeine and a chocolatey taste!
The one thing that is necessary in order to enjoy this delicious chocolate drink is that it needs to be brewed in a french press some are called bodums. Here's mine and I love it!
Bodum 8-c. Chambord Coffee Press
I don't see it as a disadvantage because having a bodum is a great purchase. It brews a fantastic cup of coffee with out having to plug anything in. You can even travel with it as my hubby and I have. We've even taken it camping. Each time you will get a perfect cup of coffee or choffy if you prefer! All you do is add your 2 tablespoon of choffy or coffee to the bodum, pour in hot water and let it steep for 4-5 minutes. After that press the piston on the cover and push down, pushing the grinds to the bottom and only the liquid will then be poured into your cup. Its so easy!
For receiving the review Sarah would love for me to also Giveaway a 12 ounce bag of Choffy to a SFM reader ! I would love for you to have this before Valentine's day to enjoy it for yourself and significant other.

I alternate through phases where I drink either coffee or tea every morning. I drink tea when I'm being more health conscious, but tend to gravitate towards coffee when I want something a little more rich (there are few coffees I drink without cream/sugar). I've never heard of Choffy, but it sounds like it may be a great way for me to kick the coffee habit.

I have never heard of Choffy so therefore I sure haven't tried it. My morning starts with good lite Maxwell House. This really sounds interesting. I would love to try it for hot chocolate. Thanks for the opportunity to win.

I love Choffy 1/3 with Coffee 2/3 in my french press, stir in hot water and let set for 20 minutes stir mix in vanilla creamer and enjoy every morning.
Andrea
A giveaway is nice, thank you! We already have a nice French press (they are not all called Bodum, you can use any brand). I'd love to try this stuff, though at $19.95 for 12oz, it's hard to imagine being able to afford it as more than a treat!
melissa
I have never heard of Choffy before, but I am a regular user of a French press. I love the stronger coffee, and will often drink a double espresso with low-fat milk. I like the flavor of coffee, not just that it is coffee. Speaking of which, I'm off to make some coffee now. 🙂
Claire
I haven't tried it and I drink coffee every morning w/o fail!
Jan J.
I haven't tried Choffy before but I sure want to! It sounds delicious! I am going to have to get one of those coffee presses. I have heard such great things about cold brewed coffee and I only need it on a small scale so that would be perfect. I'm going to go see how much it costs LOL!
KimH
Yum... that sounds like a GREAT cuppa! I'd love to try it! Thanks for the introduction! 🙂
Kim
I have never heard of Choffy before, but am always looking for new ideas in the morning. I really struggle with carbs and calories in the am to keep my blood sugar low.
Christine
I've never tried Choffy before but it sounds like it would taste yummy as a smoothie! I'd also love to try it in place of hot coffee or tea in the morning, to change things up a little 🙂
Thanks!
Tammi
I have never tried Choffy but would love to! It sounds wonderful! Currently I drink water in the mornings and occasionally juice. Thanks for the give away!
William Dotson
I have never heard of Choffy before but may be interested in one if it would make a good sugar-free hot chocolate, my favorite breakfast drink is coffee but may be different if this makes a good SF chocolate.
Michelle Moralez
I have not tried Choffy before, but it sounds Yummy. I always have water in the morning with either Green tea, Oolong tea, smoothie or coffee.
