Do you love coffee? (Nod your head yes, and feel sorry for the people shaking their head no!) Do you especially love coffee drinks like me? Then you should enter the Red Cup Showdown and show off your own special coffee?concoction!

Seattle?s?Best?Coffee is looking for blue ribbon-worthy entries ? from a tribute to Midwestern comfort food or a Wild-West adventure for the taste buds to coffee drinks inspired by favorite fair foods, classic candies or even sandwiches. A panel of judges will select one Facebook finalists based on their use of Seattle?s?Best?Coffee, appetite appeal, uniqueness and the story behind the coffee drink idea. The contest is open to all US residents 18 years or older until July 27th. For more information on how to enter and official rules, visit Seattle?s Best Coffee on Facebook!

Jeff Mauro, host of Food Network?s Sandwich King, created for two drinks using Seattle?s?Best?Coffee, including this Chocolate Cream Cookie Sandwich Iced Coffee recipe. It was easy to make, especially since I cheated and simply chilled my coffee overnight versus the entirely too involved?cold brew instructions from Jeff. It may be the?equivalent?to drinking boxed wine but my?taste buds?can?t tell the difference! It was delicious!
