What is mushroom coffee creamer?

Ideal for adding to any coffee or tea, mushroom coffee creamer can help you boost your health and wellness. It supports a boost of energy, improved cognition, and adaptogenic benefits. Mushroom coffee creamer can be added to mushroom coffee. However, it’s also a great choice if you already have a favorite traditional coffee you want to stick with. Most mushroom coffee creamers have a mild, earthy taste. However, the flavor can vary depending on the type of “cream” or sweetener used, such as coconut milk, stevia or monk fruit, or vanilla flavoring.

Many coffee lovers who want to take advantage of mushroom creamer’s health benefits are hesitant about the switch due to the earthy taste of the mushrooms. Undoubtedly, it does take some time to adjust to using a mushroom coffee creamer instead of a regular coffee creamer. However, opting for a sweetened variety with added flavor, such as cinnamon or cocoa, can help mask the taste of the mushrooms as you adjust.

What is single-origin coffee? The unique advantages of drinking this brew

If you read the label on your coffee bag long enough (and if you haven't read the label on your coffee bag, you really should), you'll find dozens of different terms that make up what I like to call "coffee lingo." Single-origin coffee is one term you'll want to understand. This coffee term is used only for coffee beans that are sourced from one single location (or origin, as the name implies). Drinking single-origin coffee delivers distinctive flavors, allowing coffee enthusiasts to connect more closely with their coffee. From traceability to complex flavor profiles, here's what makes single-origin coffee unique and some advantages to consider.
What is single-origin coffee?

Clay Parker, SVP of Commodities at Westrock Coffee (the world's largest manufacturer of private-label coffee and tea), shared his thoughts and expertise on this unique type of coffee. According to Parker, "Single-origin coffee is sourced from a single geographic area, which can be a single country, a defined region, or a single farm or cooperative. These beans typically share a similar taste profile that is influenced by the characteristics of the origin from which they are sourced."

3 variations of peanut butter coffee
Peanut butter

Unlike french vanilla or hazelnut coffee, the term "peanut butter coffee" isn't one you've likely heard often (or at all). I first encountered peanut butter coffee on an Instagram reel where a fellow coffee lover showed a latte brewed into a cup filled with peanut butter. Since I love creamy peanut butter almost as much as I love coffee, it's safe to say the idea of peanut butter coffee intrigued me.

As it turns out, Alex Zapata's variation of peanut butter coffee is only one of the many ways creative coffee lovers use peanut butter and coffee together. If you're as intrigued about this flavor pairing as I am, here are three ways to try peanut butter coffee for yourself.

As an avid coffee drinker, I think whipped coffee is incredible; it even has a unique look.

Whipped coffee almost resembles coffee that has been topped with whipped peanut butter, yet no peanut butter is used in this unique beverage. Instead, this distinctive coffee drink is made with instant coffee, sugar, hot water, and cold milk (or, if you're like me on a low-sugar, low-carb diet, you can swap granulated sugar for a zero-calorie sweetener like monk fruit). You may have heard this drink referred to as a Dalgona coffee, which comes from a Korean sugar candy with a "whipped" appearance.
