How Do You Like Your Coffee?
Lately, Joel & I have been treating ourselves with Aldea Coffee, a local coffee company that sells ethically sourced, high-quality coffee beans in small, fresh batches. Their mission expands beyond the end-product with a processing facility in Honduras that they use to train farmers on environmentally sustainable methods.
What I love about this company is that their process is very personable with strong way values to educate, support & provide meaning for their employees. It's more than just coffee, which makes the coffee even better. We have the Union Blend made by farmers, Victor, Maurico & Martir but we also really like the Espresso Roast.
A dash of sweet is also required for my morning cup. Flavored creamer turned into a bad habit after having it in 3 cups a day every week. Luckily, I found a coffee creamer recipe that's super good, ridiculously easy to make & doesn't tear up my insides. The recipe calls for vanilla but I've also tried it with cinnamon & nutmeg. Both spices did not disappoint!
I don't know a lot about coffee other than how much I absolutely need it to start my day. I'm an addict & not ashamed. Most of my family won't talk to me before I have a sip. I blame this on my momma. Or should I be thanking her for passing on the obsession?
