Coffee is a wonderful thing. It perks you up when you're wilting. It gives you that jump you need each morning to get up and going. It provides warm comfort when you snuggle up with a good book. Coffee is always there, ready and waiting, steaming hot and delicious.

Coffee is also actually good for you in many ways. The caffeine it contains has several very real health benefits that range from opening constricted airways for those with asthma to helping you get those extra pounds off. Caffeine is most commonly known for it's ability to wake people up, and to keep them awake. The other health benefits have been unknown until recent years. All the more reasons to have a cup!

Coffee lovers love a good cup of coffee. Most drink their coffee from the coffee pot. Brewing coffee is not the only way to enjoy a good cup though. Other options are available such as instant coffee. This recipe calls for you good old fashioned regular instant coffee. Most commonly it's purchased in a little glass jar.

What you'll need to make a delicious cup of instant coffee with a fancy vanilla twist is the following: Your favorite coffee mug, instant coffee, vanilla extract, sugar, and half and half.

First fill your favorite coffee mug with water. Place in the microwave for three minutes. When the water is hot remove the mug from the microwave carefully and set on the counter.

Next, add one to two teaspoons of the instant coffee to the water. Stir well to ensure that it all dissolves. Once you've added the coffee add the sugar. Use three to four teaspoons of sugar. Add it to the mug and stir. If you like your coffee sweet add another spoon or two. If you prefer it closer to black add a little less sugar.

Next measure out one teaspoon of vanilla extract. Add it to the mug. Once the vanilla is added it's time for the last ingredient. Make your vanilla twist coffee extra smooth and creamy by adding two teaspoons of half and half.

Your coffee is almost done. Give it a good stir again and place the mug back into the microwave for one minute. Once it's done carefully remove, sip, and enjoy.

Coffee is loved by millions of people all over the world. A coffee drinker delights in a good cup of coffee. Instant coffee is a quicker way to a good cup of coffee. When vanilla is added it becomes a vanilla coffee delight. Add more or less creamer and sugar to suit your own personal tastes. Enjoy and thanks for reading!
