Self-heating coffee. Self-heating coffee that tastes good.
Seriously. This is at once the most ridiculous thing ever produced by Starbuck-driven America (come on, who needs self-heating coffee when there’s a freaking coffee shop on virtually every corner?) and the most genius idea I’ve ever seen. Basically, you turn the can over and push this little button on the bottom that drops some mineral/chemical into the water surrounding the inner can. Wait five seconds, turn the can back over, and wait for another two or three minutes while the mineral and the water react and heat up — thus, heating the coffee in the inner can. Shake, pop the top, and you’ve got hot coffee.
Val says the vanilla latte is better than this one (it’s the mocha latte), but who knows? It’s coffee from the future.
