Tea and Coffee Whitener

[Puddock]

Does anyone have a good source for buying tea or coffee whitener in individual sachets?

I have looked online but you have to buy 1000 at a time and £30 is a bit much. I am just looking to buy 50-100?

Same goes for Coffee Sachets?

I know that you can 'borrow' some from hotel rooms and motorway service stations etc, but I don't spend much time in either.

I tend to pick up the Nescafe or Kenco 2-in-1 or 3-in-1 from the bargain stores, can't remember the price but they come in packs of 10's or 15's.

Bargain Madness or Poundland is usually guaranteed if you have one nearby.

we use the freeze dried tea (like QT) easy, comes with whitener and you dont have to trow a tea bag away. Or black coffee but that won't help you

+1 for Nido. Full fat milk and usualy available in Asian markets.
Happy trails...torc.

Nido is good but won't 'keep' as well once opened due to its high fat content so use within weeks rather than months. Nearest shop selling it is a good twenty miles from me so I got some included in my order from

Once upon a time and it does not seem all that long ago, I was able to get Dairystix (your standard catering pack) from my local tescos, not seen them recently though.

whats this whitener yous are talking about?

 

[Andy T]

i use a polythene bag and some wire bag ties.............just put in what you would normally have in a cup of coffee, (in my case 1 coffee, 2 sugars, 2 whitener) tip the bag so it goes into a corner and then using a tie, seal it. repeat this until you have enough drinks to last you. one advantage is that you get the same drink indoors or out, just the way you like it.

They are still around as the fast food chains still use them.

You can get little tiny zip lock bags from supermarkets - they're intended for sweets or snacks in kid's packed lunches. They are perfect for making up your own brew bits.

Take them home with you after use, wash them, turn them inside out to dry and re-use.

 

[Rebel]

I make my own sachets up too.

Or if I'm just going to have one brew I put it in my mug (which has a sealed lid) in advance with the sugar and then pour the hot liquid from my vacuum flask on it.

 

[Ruvio]

I get ours from the local cash and carry. About a tenner for a box of 500, just lob em in the garage. Next time I go I'd be happy to pick you some up.
Not that fussed for myself, I just drink it without.

 

[geordienemisis]

go to a local motor way cafe and just take a few (dozen) extra with your brew.
