Crio Bru: Chocolate rain or feel no pain?

Crio Bru Chocolate rain or feel no pain? As a bona fide chocoholic, I succumbed to the many ads showing up in my feed for this curous substance they called chocolate tea… with the brand name of Crio Bru. One thing that drew me especially - aside from the chocolate, of course — is the lo-calorie idea. I like the thought of filling up on a chocolatey liquid so I would not be so tempted to snack in the afternoons. So how did it work out? Deliciously! Crio Bru is easy to amoe - just pop a filter into your coffee maker, add some water, and brew. And it tastes like a liquid brownie — just not as filling. I tend to like strong coffee, and dark chocolate, so I probably put more of the chocolate "tea leaves" into the filter than most would. So my only quibble is that I go thruogh a Crio Bru bag pretty quickly, getting about 4-5 cups out of a full filter. So the cost of the bags for every day use could add up, if you like it strong like me. But for an occasional lo-cal chocolatey treat, Crio Bru is a delicious alternative to heavier beverages like milkshakes or protein drinks.
