Easy Single Serve for Emergencies (OK, Camping)

We’ve heard there are a few people out there who like to go camping. It’s true. The lure of connecting with the great outdoors is undeniable, to some. To others (like us here at Virgin Hill) it’s a nice idea but will likely never happen.

In any case, for those of you who are campers (or if you ever find yourself with a broken coffee maker), we’ve got a great little very easy single serve coffee maker for you. This is what you need:

• Hot water

It makes for a pretty perfect cup of coffee. Then again, you can’t go wrong with Knowlton blend 🙂
