Luxury - Yes, coffee is first and foremost a luxury to enjoy. Sit by the balcony, watch over the pouring rain, feel the rainy breeze and sip at a hot cup of latte - hardly anything beats it. You know I am right.
Hobby - If you have made yourself coffee drinks like latte, cappuccino, simple pour over...you know if you don't like it as a hobby you're not going to enjoy going through the "ritual" on a daily basis. Starting from the thrill of buying beans to grinding and adding your own secret touch to add a bit of flavour to the process of brewing - it has to be a hobby!
kick - Well, duh! What's coffee without that morning kick eh!
So to sum it up, Coffee is a Luxurious Hobby with a kick to it!
Edit : Here's my favourite coffee mug! The words hit different and brings back so many memories!
Yes, sir! I know you're right!
I don't have a balcony at home, but as soon as it starts to rain, I like to make coffee and lie down in my hammock on the porch. It's almost always black coffee, but sometimes if the weather really cools down, I add coconut milk and cocoa powder. It's nothing like a kick, as I get sleepy anyway, though 😂
That sounds delicious, and you've left me craving it. I want to try a coconut milk coffee with cocoa powder!
@coquicoin I love coconut milk lattes and if you add chocolate it would be super delicious. Coconut milk is ideal for those with lactose intolerance and dairy allergies.
I don't have issues with lactose but I should drink skim milk to keep my cholesterol under control. And I'm not sure if coconut milk is recommended to keep it under control.
I think that the oil in coconut milk will not increase your cholesterol because it is a vegetable fat, and it is also less frequently consumed so I don't think you are going to overdo it. Don't stop enjoying its sweet flavor @coquicoin
Wow! That combo of coconut milk, cocoa powder and coffee, sounds like what I need on the wet miserable autumn day.👍
It sounds great, doesn't it? It's not autumn here, hehe, but it's a miserable rainy morning. So perfect for that combo too ☕️😍
It's autumn, but we hardly had summer.🙄
Although I use coconut milk for several things, I never added it to my coffee. I should try this, thanks for the tip!

I have tried it this way and I liked it, it is an ideal vegan solution to replace dairy, although the taste varies a little.
I will give it a go to see if I like it because I have coconut milk here anyway and now I'm curious :)

You must be killin' it out here!

Yeah, I love coconut milk, but adding it to coffee is yet to be tried 😁
Haha, so we are alike :) I use it for chia pudding as well as smoothies but it hasn't occurred to try it in coffee yet. I'm thinking which of the cups would be best suitable first though :)

I have only had coconut milk as is, never tried with anything else. But I see so many people heaping praise on it that I just have to try it at some point!
I have never tried coconut milk in coffee but I have seen it on many recipes online. Is it good with coffee?
Aye, that sounds really nice too! :D
Yes! It's delicious. I like it with homemade coconut milk. I also add cocoa powder sometimes and make mochaccino. It's a must try :)
I need to try this out if I ever see it on the menu at a cafe!
I guess there must be something like this on a vegan menu (I'm not vegan, but we love many plant based dishes at home).
Definitely coffee is a kick way, very good your perspective. I couldn't live without my morning coffee.
How Hobby can also be a game full of experiments. I like to mix flavors, even though with some I have a feeling it will go wrong, it ends up being a delicious thing in the end.
I agree that it is a luxury, one of the wonders that those of us who don't have expensive cars and big houses can afford. Having a cup of coffee is like sunbathing in front of a swimming pool or reading a book in the middle of a beautiful silent forest.
Now that is something I would really, really like to try someday...with a cup.of coffee of course. And if it rains, even better!
Totally agree. The sound of the rain falling is mesmerizing.
Good descriptive words. Hobby is an interesting one. It would have cone to my mind but you are definitely right. Coffee is a hobby to a lot of people.
Heya Leaky! Been a while mate, how have you been!
One of the best hobbies one can have eh! (Yes, I am being very biased here hehe!) 😉
It's been good. Busy with work so less time to comment on Hive unfortunately but good nonetheless. 👍
Same here, I myself have been away for nearly 2 months. Just got back to blogging again this month.
Yeah. It happens to us all. We all take breaks now and again. Life gets in the way of Hive blogging 😆
I very much agree with your three words. Trying to find the best flavor when preparing coffee becomes a fun and challenging pastime, Then come those moments where having a cup of delicious coffee becomes very pleasant and unmatched and to finish I think we all need that kick of caffeine in the morning. Hehe.
Thanks for leaving your comment.
May a delicious cup of coffee accompany you.☕
Happy weekend!
Happy weekend to you too! :))
I always try to add a bit of cinnamon powder when I'm grinding the beans 😉
You are right. Coffee can also be a hobby, very interesting indeed. For me, it is not, at least yet. But I want at to sign up for a course to learn how to taste the difference of denomination coffee. Maybe if I do, it will also become a hobby.
And it is definitely a kick and a luxury that fortunately I can afford ;)
I like your three words to describe coffee, because yes, sometimes coffee also becomes a hobby.
The best hobby eh! 😁
I can only agree fully. I really enjoy my coffee in the morning :)

... Don't you have a photo to add???:)
Whoopsie!
Edited and added one now 😄
Awesome 😁
Hey, it's great to see you active again on Hive. You're one of those authors who always bring a nice perspective to everything. Great comment that I agree with.
But, heh! Where's your photo??? Find one and edit 😁
Snap! I was watching a game while hiving and got distracted lol! Added one now.
Thanks for the edit!
That's a delicious-looking coffee, and I agree, the ups and downs are always worth it.
Which game were you watching?
Thanks, made it myself! 😄
Bangladesh vs New Zealand, cricket!
Nice!
I haven't had coffee with milk in ages, but that one is inspiring.
Ah, cricket... that's right my friend has been watching it. I have some Kiwi friends who might have been watching too.
What was the score?
There was a time I used to make latte everyday hehe! I've switched to mostly drip coffee now, but I'll still occasionally go to a cfe for a latte or cappuccino 😄
NZ are 216/7 after 44 overs. It's still on, and there's football later in the evening! My schedule is all jam packed hehe 😂
Well, I have the joy of giving myself a life of luxury every morning. 😊☕ In my country a few years ago the price of coffee increased so much that very few could buy it, really it was a luxury to be able to enjoy even just a cup of coffe in the morning.
Yep! Same here, it's quite expensive to buy a cup of latte or cappuccino or even simple americano. But I consider myself lucky that I can afford it from time to time.
3 words that seem to me perfectly describe this relationship with coffee.
Interesting description, especially the morning kick hahahaha I had not seen it that way, but you are right without drinking my cup of coffee in the morning I am not a person hahahaha, after I drink my coffee I start my day, so I agree with your description, greetings!
