best kept coffee secrets
This is my petition to bring back the drip coffee pot!
Hear me out on this one: we spend SO much money on coffee every week. Don’t get me wrong, I love a well-made latte with a cute little design on it, but that should be saved for special occasions. This is a simple way to save money and make delicious coffee at home! Keep in mind, this is going to require a bit of an investment up front to purchase equipment and products, but trust me it is so worth it!
what you’ll need:
drip coffee pot
fresh ground coffee beans
Buddy Brew (TPA) + Cafe Umbria (SEA) are a few of my faves.
milk frother (trust me on this)
aerolatte froth tool
collagen powder (I prefer unflavored)
barista boost powder
raw sugar
half & half
recipe
add 1 T coffee grounds per 1 c of water to coffee pot. I recommend making 4 cups for this recipe (makes 2 servings)
brew coffee.
in a separate cup (pyrex or stainless steel) add 1 scoop collagen powder, 1 scoop barista boost, and 2 t raw sugar.
add brewed coffee to mixture and mix/froth with aerolatte frother.
simultaneously heat half & half in nespresso milk frother.
add steamed/heated/frothed milk to coffee cup (about 1/4 full) and then add coffee mixture to top.
sip, relax, and be energized!
