Enjoy these recipes from our 89 Coffee Recipes eBook
I love a good cup of coffee but not in a way that I could talk about fresh beans for 6 hours. There are some people who take their coffee very seriously and you don't want to mess with their beverage! :-) For some, it is an ultimate caffeine boost and for others like myself it is a cozy comfort to be sipped slowly.
There are a few different types of coffee I love and I've enjoyed a few in some very special cafe's, parks and museums around the world which made them all the more marvelous!
At home we do a simple French Press in the morning, but I do love a creamy and foamy flat white, latte, cappuccino or a cafe mocha now and then. I've created a handy sheet below to show the difference between the main coffees incase you're not familiar with them. I still get a bit confused.
If you've ever been fortunate enough to enjoy a cup of coffee in a Paris cafe or in a garden under the trees in a beautiful European city or special place, then you know how exciting it can be being served something delicious and interesting.
