Coffee that makes you fall asleep
When people want to stay awake, many look for a rich cup of coffee to keep their
energy up. However, from now on, you will have to be more careful because there is a new
coffee in the market, called Counting Sheep Coffee, which will make you fall asleep even
faster and sleep more soundly. As Deland Jessop, sheep executive officer, has explained
that his team aimed to create a great-tasting coffee that would help people relax after a
long active day, Counting Sheep Coffee has been developed and engineered to put you
to sleep. Besides that fact that Valerian is a plant that has been used as a mild sedative
and a sleep inducer, the team has discovered that Valerian roots’ bitter taste actually
works well with the taste of coffee. As a result, the Counting Sheep Coffee helps the
drinkers sleep through the night or wake up fewer times during the night and this new
revolutionary drink is tasty, too. Therefore, if regular decaffeinated coffee still keeps
you awake, try the Counting Sheep Coffee.

farm in Boonville, New York, has successfully invented
wine ice-cream. Note that it is not just wine-flavored
ice-cream, but it is wine-infused ice-cream! Mercer’s
Dairy has revealed that combining wine
and ice-cream was not a simple task as
high quantities of alcohol made it difficult
for the ice-cream mixture to freeze. The
best and final experiment result contains
15% of butter fat and up to 5% of
alcohol; therefore, one must be Coffee as painkiller
