Sustainably sourced & plastic-free

Cambio K-Cup

Cambio Roasters, a brand led by former Keurig Chief Innovation Officer Kevin Hartley, has announced an exciting new development in the world of K-Cup coffee. Cambio Roasters has developed the world’s first aluminum K-Cup, marking an innovative shift from plastic to aluminum. The aluminum coffee pod addresses the environmental concerns raised by plastic coffee pods, significantly advancing sustainability and coffee quality. With over 40 million plastic pods ending up in landfills and oceans every day, these aluminum K-Cup coffee pods offer a promising, eco-friendly, and high-quality alternative to plastic pods.

Cambio Roasters has announced its commitment to moving away from single-use plastics and toward sustainable alternatives. Recyclable aluminum pods are especially important for our environment and can elevate the K-Cup coffee-drinking experience. Since plastic is porous, traditional pods cannot preserve coffee freshness in the same way aluminum can. Aluminum pods feature a nearly perfect oxygen barrier, helping to keep coffee fresh and full of flavor from roast to brew.

Coined the “world’s better cup”, Cambio Roasters’ new aluminum K-Cup coffee pods are available online for purchase directly from their website. In addition, pods are available for purchase at various retailers, such as Amazon and Walmart. In the upcoming months, the brand plans to continue to collaborate with more retailers.

Coffee lovers who enjoy a variety of roasters will also be happy to see the selection of available roasts in aluminum K-Cup pods, ranging from light to dark roasts, with several medium roast selections, too. If you can’t decide which roast to try, the Cambio Roasters variety pack allows you to try them all.

Sightglass summer solstice

As longer days and golden hours take hold, coffee roaster Sightglass Coffee is ready for the summer season with the debut of its summer solstice collection. The limited-time seasonal blend, Summer Solstice 2025, is crafted for long days and golden light, with a medium roast and blackberry, guava, and honeysuckle notes. This year's fruit-forward blend combines silky, washed Ethiopian heirloom coffee from Worka Chelbessa and lush, naturally processed Bourbon from Huye, Rwanda. This medium roast coffee blend is perfect for slow summer mornings or sun-drenched afternoons and is available in three sizes: 12 ounces, 2lb, or 5 lb bags.

The summer solstice coffee can be purchased independently or in one of three brand-new, thoughtfully curated coffee sets to pair with the season’s slower pace and brighter mood. While these roasts can be enjoyed in any of your favorite brewing forms, Sightglass recommends trying them over ice to highlight the floral, tropical notes, using a simple iced V60 brewing method.

Starbucks around the world: Discover the most Instagram-worthy views

Starbucks in Rome

On a surface level, coffee lovers visit Starbucks locations across the world to grab a delicious cup of joe while on the go. Yet, the Starbucks experience goes so much deeper than a place to grab something to fuel a caffeine addiction. Whether it's sharing a moment, catching up with friends while sipping a latte, or treating yourself to a specialty espresso drink after a long, hard day, a Starbucks run holds a more profound significance in the lives of many coffee drinkers.

If you're both a coffee lover and an avid traveler, like I am, every visit to a new Starbucks location serves as a new adventure. I recently visited the Starbucks located in the Al Seef area of Old Dubai, and it was a unique experience. Sitting on the patio and watching a mixture of locals and tourists pass by through the streets of Old Dubai made me realize the value of a cup of coffee (beyond its incredible taste). The beauty of coffee is that it connects us even on opposite ends of the world.
