Forto Coffee Shots - What Are They?
Walking around through various stores, if you have been paying attention, you may have seen Forto coffee shots on the shelves. Apparently I have not been paying close attention, as these little things just came to my attention last week, at my local Walgreen's. Reading up, I see that they are available at a lot of places, apparently, like Walmart, Ralph's, Amazon.com, even, oddly, advertised at Keurig.com. You can also find these coffee shots at their own website, Fortocoffee.com
What are they?
From what I can tell, it looks like Forto Coffee is positioning itself as an alternative to products like 5 hour energy. Or, maybe Monster, or, maybe Redbull. However, this is not a concoction of synthetic caffeine, taurine and b vitamins, like Redbull. So, what's the difference?
Well, here we go: Forto coffee is mostly just a little itty bitty coffee. Cold brewed coffee, yes. Added caffeine coffee, yes. It’s like a cold, small espresso, in a way. These coffee things come in a, well, sort of like a tall Keurig coffee, erm, pod, that is really tall. You don't brew these 2 ounce small sippy pods. They are already filled with liquid. No, you pretty much drink it like a shot of tequila.
