Coffee and Kickoffs: Spiced Snack Mix

No Super Bowl party is complete without a solid snack mix. Everyone is reaching for that bowl between plays while they wait for main course. This snack mix disappeared in a single afternoon during taste testing at the office so we can confidently say that this is a crowd pleaser. The coffee comes through on the finish and lingers in your mouth after the other flavors have subsided, much like the whiskey finish in our barrel aged coffees. Give this snack mix a try - it just might be your new go-to party mix.
