If I can enjoy cafe quality at home in the comfort of my PJs well you can guess what I’m doing. This is a coffee for the parents , can’t wait to try it cold.

I like my coffees with milk and the best part about this flavor is that you can customize according to your liking. For those who like a strong coffee, this is perfect although I am not that person. You can also construct a cold coffee by adding this shot and some cold milk with caramel syrup and it tastes amazing.

The Americano capsule is my Husband’s favourite pod. He normally drinks a Long Black so this is perfect for him. The flavours are rich and robust and you can weaken or strengthen to your liking. When I gave him the coffee he asked what coffee shop I went to, to his surprise it was from the Nescafé Dolce Gusto! 10/10 Recommend.

I’m a big fan of Americano coffee. Hot or cold it is always my choice of coffee
The Nescafe Dolce Gusto Americano Rich Aroma coffee pods definitely taste better with a long pour as there’s no bitterness.
I make these pods in a tall glass with ice for a delicious cold coffee that has a full caffeine hit with no bitter taste.

This is probably my least favourite in the whole range as I am usually not that into americano coffee (still like to have it with milk!). However these capsules are super efficient and easy to use (even for beginners like my husband) and always help me get ready for the coffee within seconds. Would definitely keep trying other flavours in the future.:)

Really enjoyed this Americano coffee. It has a nice strong flavour and beautiful aroma. I like that it’s super versatile, I can have it cold or hot and when I want a bit of a kick after busy day with the kids I can drink it without the milk. It definitely wakes me up and keeps me going. But it also taste great with a splash of milk, especially when I want my coffee milder some days.

The Americano Rich Aroma is such a delicious and strong coffee. I love having it both hot & cold – depending on the time of day I’m having my coffee. I love how easy it is to make, but is still full of flavour. I love having it on its own, but also adding a dash of milk is delicious too!

As soon as I made this Americano coffee my house smelt like a cafe. It smells amazing! It’s very simple to make with just one pod, all you need to do is select what temperature you like it. I’m not a huge fan of black coffee, but I do prefer this one iced over hot. It’s strong, but not as strong as I was expecting it to be and it’s very smooth. I prefer sweet coffee and this one is quite bitter so after trying it as is I preferred adding sugar and some milk. What makes this coffee really delicious is having it iced with some vanilla ice cream added to give it some creaminess. This isn’t one I’d normally purchase so I wouldn’t get this one again, but there is so much options with this one such as using it in a dessert. It’s quite versatile.

Although this coffee pod was quite smooth in its self it is quite on the stronger side. So if you are new to coffee I would not recommend this one to start off with. However if you are a coffee drinker then this is for you. A perfect shot right into your cup in the convenience of your own home. Definitely a boost in the shot. Highly recommend to those that like or need a strong coffee.

I’m not going to lie – I love a milk based coffee! I was a bit nervous to sip this on its own, but the flavour itself was pretty good. (I just added some sweetener to mine, ssssh) If you’re a fan of espresso coffee, you’ll love it!

Genius Beach And Pool Tips Every Aussie Mum Should Know
Summer beach and pool days are core childhood memory creators, but getting the kids out the door, not so much! From wrestling wriggly toddlers into rashies to arguing with teens trying to dodge sunscreen and cramming half the house into the car, the exhaustion can kick in before we’ve even set foot on the sand!
But there are some very clever tips that will make even the most stressful summer days smooth sailing – and the Mouths of Mums community know them all! Which is why we asked our mums for their hints, hacks and tips – from sand removal to stress-free sunscreen application (we’re going to introduce you to the fabulous new Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Sprays that will make your life so much easier).
You’ll want to take note before you next hit the beach or pool!
Pack Smart, Not Big
Do you feel like you take waaayyy too much when you head to the beach or pool, and then you seem to forget a couple of key things that would have made life so much easier?
Our Mouths of Mums community swear by this fab list of essentials which should be in every mum’s beach kit, and
A plastic bag for wet towels and bathers
A dry bag for clothes
A bucket or basin to wash off sandy toys
A ‘clean zone’, sand-free blanket or mat for eating and changing
A pop-up tent for changing
Waterproof phone case
Talcum powder to get sticky, wet sand off little feet. Just pop it on and brush it off – it’s magic!
A hand-held car vac for quick sand cleanups!
“The amount of times my kids have gone home in wet chafing swimming costumes because they didn’t want anyone to see them changing is unbelievable! Our pop up tent has been life changing! We all drive home comfy and cosy! Lastly, a sand proof picnic blanket is so perfect for a sand reprieve! The sand literally falls right through them!” – MoM Member
Get Safety Sorted Before The Fun Starts
It’s pretty hard to get the kids’ attention once you’re at the beach or pool, so the safety talk should really start at home. Our mums recommend chatting to the kids about:
Swimming between the flags at the beach
Setting a meeting spot in case anyone gets separated
Sunscreen: Always apply sunscreen 20 minutes before heading outdoors. And set alarms to reapply every two hours throughout the day. Reapply immediately after swimming or using a towel.
Applying sunscreen at the start of the day and regularly throughout is so important, but it usually causes the most arguments. Kids don’t want to stop, teens assure you they ‘did it already’.
That’s where Banana Boat’s new SmartMist™ Sunscreen Spray SPF50+ actually makes a difference. The iconic sunscreen brand has just launched its newest product, which turns sunscreen time into something simple and fun. It’s an easy and convenient way to tick off sun safety – which isn’t always easy when it comes to kids!
Why Banana Boat SmartMist Sunscreen Spray makes sunscreen easier
The Smart Control Spray gives you the choice of a short spray for tricky spots or a long spray for larger areas like those wiggly little legs, making application simple and convenient. It also sprays from any angle – just spray, rub in and you’re ready for playtime.
Clear, lightweight formula that absorbs fast and with no greasy feel.
SPF50+ broad spectrum UVA and UVB protection and 4-hour water resistant.
Kids SmartMist™ is mild and gentle for kid’s sensitive skin, fragrance free and contains Aloe and Vitamin E.
Sport SmartMist™ features high-performance Powerstay Technology™, designed to stay on through sweat and water.
Banana Boat SmartMist makes those important sunscreen stops much easier and effective and is perfect for active Aussie families this summer.
Prep & Time It Perfectly
There’s nothing worse than kids itching to get to the beach while you’re trying to remember everything you need to pack – it makes everyone frazzled. So get prepped early – even the night before. And time your departure to minimise the amount of time in the car (and the amount of times the kids ask ‘are we there yet?!’.
“Packing the car the night before, always a huge help getting the bucket, cabana, and bag of spare clothes/towels in the boot. We usually leave straight after breakfast to avoid heavy traffic as the beach is an hour away.” – MoM Member
Pack Smart Snacks
Snacks are a must, but it can be tricky to know what’s going to survive a hot, Aussie summer day – and what’s good for hungry tummies. Here’s what our mums recommend:
Chopped fruit
Crackers
Boiled eggs
Drink bottles that have been frozen overnight
“We have a few allergies/intolerances, so being prepared with food is helpful and saves us the search and some money. I pre-chop carrots, cucumber, apples, boiled egg, in a handy separating container, a packet of chips, dip, and bring water bottles. If it’s a longer day planned at the beach I’ll bring lunch too.” – MoM Member
A chaos-free beach day. Yes please!
You don’t need a military-style plan to enjoy a sunny day out. A beach trolley, some prep, and an easy sunscreen like SmartMist™ are enough to help things run calmly – or at least calm-ish!
Always read the label and follow the directions for use. Wear protective clothing, a hat and sunglasses in addition to sunscreen. Reapply frequently every 2 hours or more often when sweating and immediately after swimming or using a towel. Avoid prolonged high-risk sun exposure.
