low acid decaf coffee

For the last couple of days, the thought keeps flitting through my head, "I need to remember to buy decaf coffee!" You see, I'm hosting the Thursday installment of my family's Thanksgiving (we're gathering again on Saturday with a slightly expanded group) and I know that several of my relatives enjoy a cup of coffee to go along with dessert at the end of the meal.

You could add this to coffee...but then why not just use regular Bailey's? You could drink it over ice, but honestly, coffee-flavor is not what we want from Bailey's. The Mint flavor? Yeah.

Our verdict? Bailey's with a Hint of Coffee is unnecessary. Inoffensive, but unnecessary. It's getting cold out there, and Bailey's is best neat, over ice, or in your hot coffee.
