Happy National Coffee Day, friends! It’s obviously one of my favorite ‘national days’ of the year. Coffee is my morning fuel, afternoon pick-me-up, and evening dessert companion. It makes me happy and helps me to power through crazy workloads, and occasionally exhaustion.
I absolutely love Café Bustelo’s coffee varieties. It is the brand I whip out during holidays and family gatherings for everyone to enjoy together… because coffee brings people together in my family.
Did you know how important coffee was in Latin American culture?
If I’m being honest (I am) I will admit I knew very little about where coffee actually comes from, how it’s processed, tasting elements, and it’s heritage. When I started to learn about my favorite drink I was so excited.
From Mexico to Brazil and everywhere in between, Latin American culture values a quality brew. There’s a spot labeled as “The Bean Belt” which stretches between the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn, from the Eastern border to Mexico to the shores of New Guinea where the best of the best coffee plants are grown.
Founded by Gregorio Menendez Bustelo in 1928, Café Bustelo has been brewing their flavor-packed coffee for over 90 years.
How to celebrate
My favorite way to celebrate National Coffee Day is to invite a close-knit group of friends & family over to share good times and good coffee. I will craft my Café Bustelo for everyone to enjoy together!
For the tastiest of National Coffee Day, pair with:
1 | Chocolate Tart
2 | Tiramisu
3 | Coffee Cake
4 | Red Velvet Cupcakes
5 | Biscottis
6 | Pistachio Cannolis
7 | Affogato
8 | Warm Churros
Those are my favorite desserts to pair with Café Bustelo and to satisfy that sweet tooth! The bold flavor of the coffee paired with lighter and sweeter dessert bites couldn’t be any more dreamy.
Thank goodness it’s the weekend so you can celebrate all day long without work getting in the way. That’s right… coffee for everyone!
Pro tip: Pick up a 6-cup espresso maker that is easy to store, clean, and use like the one HERE
Enjoy the best
Spice up your coffee routine on National Coffee Day with Café Bustelo’s variety of bold Latin coffees, from its classic espresso-style coffee to Cool® Café Con Leche. My personal favorite is their Café Bustelo® Espresso Coffee because it’s the perfect strength for enjoying a full cup.
