I feel like instant coffee gets a bad rep but it’s actually really good if you get over yourself and stop taking your coffee so seriously all the time
i get the appeal of the espresso turned latte but have you tried a full cup of hot milk on a tablespoon of instant coffee?? or even half milk half water ratio will do
it‘s GOOD
(some brands are better than others, choose wisely)
(any milk is fine)
justice for the occasional cup of instant coffee.

i live away from home, have been for almost 4 years now; i’m studying in a city far away from home, and like all college students, i need coffee to function 🙏 here are some things i do to keep the beverage interesting :)
• whipped coffee; beat instant coffee, sugar and a tiny bit of water till you see peaks forming, and pour in your choice of milk! can be had iced or hot. i love the little foam layer and bubbles that form on top.
• café medici(ish); add milk, cocoa powder and orange essence (pls don’t use orange juice because that’ll split the milk) to your instant coffee and you’ll have a rich, complex flavour which will warm you from the inside.
• cardamom café latte; prepare instant coffee in the normal way, add milk and sugar, and then add a pinch of cardamom powder! as an indian girlie, i love chai, so having coffee which reminds me of the flavour of chai is great ;)
• coffee cookie ice cream; get a tub of vanilla ice cream, and make a concentrated decoction with instant coffee. crush any cookies/biscuits off your choice. pour the decoction into the tub of ice cream and sprinkle in the crumbs as you mix. pop it back in the freezer for a while and then you’re done! enjoy.
• cran-coffee; if you’re not a fan of milk, make a weaker decoction of instant coffee, pour it into cold water, add some cranberry juice and sugar, with a twist of lime. top it off with some ice and you’ll have a refreshing earthy mocktail!
what are your favourite ways to have coffee?

I love coffee. Iced, black, maybe a dash of oatmilk here and there. I drink it to feed my soul a little energy in the morning. Although it 100% in certain cases has gone too far to bleed into the capitalistic culture we live in. Curious to know your thoughts on this “hot take”. This is not a bash on my culinary creatives.💋

a friend had her birthday this week. We got her flowers. Went out for beer and fries. Had burgers too. Truffle mayo. Stayed out in the cold for a bit too long. Walked around.
simple unplanned birthdays are underrated

walking, witnessing nature, using your body, breathing good fresh air, OH MAN
every adult yapping about spending time in nature is CORRECT
the sore muscles, the good kind of exhaustion!! it’s such a simple thing and it does so much for you
and dabble in what kids do on vacation, depending on the weather, get your clothes dirty, get your gloves soaked in snow, slide down a hill
get out there, play a little, the child in you needs it
