Brew It Yourself!To make awesome coffee drinks at home or at the office, have these HG-approved ingredients in your pantry at all times . . .
Instant Coffee
—It does the trick in a pinch.
Unsweetened Cocoa
—Adds chocolatey-good flavor with very few calories. Stick with a teaspoon at a time (about 5 calories) and use a no-calorie sweetener to bring out the flavor.
Light Vanilla Soymilk

No-Calorie Sweetener Packets
—Whether you flavor the pink packs, the blue babies, or (HG's fave) the yellow Splenda ones, keeping a stash of these on hand is key to creating coffee magic!

—SF Vanilla Caramel and FF French Vanilla are the best, and they have just about 10 calories per tasty teaspoon.
