May I sip in your honour while I ponder if I'm a man at the pond or just a Duck. by @captainquack22

A sleep an... gives us an introspective rhyme while on night shift, as he ponders over some changes he has been going through recently.

DANG, I'M TIRED
So I thought, let me get a coffee going to spice me up. To rev me up, like you start an old lawnmower. It's sometimes so ironic working at night and monitoring my study on patients. The irony is that I'm tired, so tired, watching another person sleep. Hearing them snore. Counting their awakenings. Counting how many leg movements they might have, or how many times their breathing gets a little weird.


An American ☕to accompany my sunny Sunday ☀️ by @nathaly23

Author shares a family tradition of picking and making coffee in the Cumano region of Venezuela, as she reminisces about her recent trip to a coffee shop in her home town.

visited about a year ago this coffee shop called Amarelo located in the Hyper Galerías shopping center in Cumana, but it closed for remodelling Since then I have not gone, but I had a super big curiosity to return to that place and enjoyed the transformation of its structure, but because of my work it had become a little difficult for me to go Until today came that day, I said to myself, there is no better place to have a delicious Americano ☕ than in Amarelo


Charlotte Sweet & Coffee hosted Hive Conecta Tech Event by @crisch23

Author shares her exciting story about a recent Hive Technical Meet-up, where she experiments with many different products.

The power is in the hands of the chocolate but the best is the Oreo cookie, which combines several ingredients to make the ultimate top of the flavour with Oreo Frappuccino, I love it, and if you come to Charlotte for sure it will be in the options that you can also choose.


Cuban Cappuccino by @drplasticwill

Author shares his shocked experience of having a midnight coffee at a Cuban bar, only to discover that the coffee was not the rich, strong Cuban coffee he expected, but instead a weak American version. Check out the exotic-sounding location called the Bar Piano.

Essentially, the coffee was not Cuban- it was not as strong and bitter as Cuban coffee. He said there are different ways to prepare coffee. For instance, there is Cappuccino, which is coffee with hot milk, milk foam, and a little chocolate powder. There is cortadito, which is Expresso with powdered milk. Another option is Machiatto, which is Expresso with milk foam. Finally, there is Irish, which is coffee with whiskey, whipped cream, and sugar. However, Irish coffee was not part of the deal and had to be purchased separately.


This Coffe with Family by @franzzonline

Author takes us on his coffee morning by showing us some goofy photos that indicate just how special the moment is to him and his partner.

Where I live, the coffee in the morning combined with good company, makes any environment feel much more enjoyable, something extremely valuable in families, where we appreciate group chats about the vanities of life or the news of the moment.


Escorial Coffee : A place to dream by @osismi

When we think of Havana, old cars and classics come to mind. However, there's stunning old architecture and quaint streets with coffee shops, as this author shows us in her post.

Located in the picturesque streets of Old Havana, Café Escorial is a charming place that attracts visitors with its cosy atmosphere and exquisite coffee. It is located on one of the corners of the Plaza Vieja, from where you can enjoy a spectacular view, as you can enjoy the different architectural styles of its colonial buildings, which is what makes me fall in love with the place.


Trouble at the Rose Garden Cafe by @ellenripley

It's also sad to see stunning architecture with the character being demolished and left for the ruins, isn't it? Well, our author recently visited a location where despite what looks like some renovation in pro

As we entered through the side door, it was dark inside with wooden panelling hiding the kitchen area and yet more scaffolding. There was a serving hatch in the middle. It looked as though the café was having some renovations done to it. They had tried to make it more hospitable with some nice fairy lights and shelves. I thought it looked like Santa's Grotto without Santa! I appreciated the effort though and as long as I got my coffee, I didn't mind.


Green tea with pineapple, my first experience 🍃 by @valrodriguez

I prepared my first green tea with pineapple, just by the smell it started to give off I knew it was going to be good. When I tasted it I noticed that it had an undeniable bitter touch at the end of the natural green tea, but with the pleasant sensation that the pineapple flavour gives it, I have to accept that it improved the experience a lot.


What would happen if you completely stopped drinking coffee? by @justbabybee

Someone who is used to enjoying coffee will find it difficult to stop consuming it. They will not be able to completely get away from their coffee.
One thing that can be done is simply to reduce the duration of drinking coffee or reduce the amount of coffee they drink slowly and periodically. Don't immediately stop drinking coffee completely.


Co-pilot coffee machine by @astrea

It is a marvel, it brews coffee like any electric coffee maker, in less than 10 minutes the rich aroma of freshly brewed coffee begins, the cup is sturdy and made of steel, as is the connection cable. I can't wait to make a short trip to use it a lot.
