Coffee Day: 5 coffee recipes for coffee lovers

September 30, 2020 by Rhys Knipe

In the UK we drink about 2.8kg of coffee per year each. Many of us couldn’t imagine getting up in the morning without our cup of coffee, be it a black coffee, a cappuccino, a latte or any other of our favourite recipes. To celebrate Coffee Day, we’re sharing some of our favourite coffee recipes that you can easily make at home!


1. Peppermint mocha

Peppermint mocha

This one is perfect for giving you that Christmassy, seasonal feel. This coffee is tasty and at the same time refreshing: think hot chocolate meets coffee!

To make it, you’ll need:
200ml whole milk
½ teaspoon mint syrup or mint extract
½ teaspoon vanilla extract or vanilla syrup
½-1 tablespoon cocoa powder (up to you!)
Coffee of your choice!
2-3 teaspoons of sugar

Heat the milk, cocoa and sugar in a saucepan. Wait until the sugar is dissolved. Mix in 200ml of your favourite coffee, the vanilla and the mint (make sure to let your candy cane melt). Serve in a large mug.


2. Milk n’ milk (leche y leche)

Milk n’ milk

This Spanish recipe involves two kinds of milk and is perfect for those days when you want a softer, smoother coffee. It’s easy to make and requires only coffee, condensed milk and normal milk!

Add your condensed milk to your mug, around ¼ full. Pour in your coffee slowly, over an upside down spoon. The coffee should sit over the milk. Then heat up your normal milk and stir it until it foams. Place the foam on top of your coffee with a spoon. Finally, gently pour in the rest of the hot milk. You should have a layered, sweet and tasty coffee!


3. Coffee smoothie

Coffee smoothie

This coffee is perfect for if you want to try something different and healthy for breakfast! With fruit, oats and cocoa powder this is a healthy spin-off that gets you going in the morning whilst still giving you your caffeine kick.

You will need:
1 banana
Your milk of choice!
80ml oats
½ tablespoon of honey
1 tablespoon cocoa powder
Your favorite coffee brand (200ml of cold, freshly brewed coffee.)

Freeze your banana the night before making your smoothie. Add all of your ingredients to the blender and wait for 1-2 minutes. You should have a nice, smooth texture in your smoothie. If it’s too thick, add in some more milk and blend again. Add oats or extra banana to make it thicker.


4. Pumpkin Spiced Latte

Pumpkin Spiced Latte

It’s safe to say that this latte has made headlines since becoming famous last year. It has a lovely spiced fragrance and tastes much better homemade than put together at a coffee store. What does it taste like? Think warm winter memories, lovely nutmeg with pumpkin sweetness and, of course, all blended in with the rich flavor of coffee. This coffee is a treat for the senses.

You will need:
700ml whole milk (heated).
3 sprinkles of pumpkin spice.
4 teaspoons of sugar.
½ teaspoon of vanilla extract (or a dash of vanilla syrup).
Your normal coffee of choice!

Mix up the milk, sugar, pumpkin and vanilla either in a blender or with a whisk or milk frother. Make it nice and frothy! Pour the mixture into your coffee mug until ⅔ full. Then pour your coffee in.


5. White chocolate mocha

White chocolate mocha

This one is a real treat and easy to make at home. A spin-off of the classic mocha, white chocolate adds a rich creaminess to your coffee.

First you need to make your white chocolate sauce: add milk and white chocolate to a pot and stir until it forms a nice, smooth sauce. Pour out your favourite coffee into a mug, and add the sauce on top!

Everyone has their own taste when it comes to coffee. Every cup of coffee is unique to us: so why should the mug we drink from be any different? Discover our range of personalized mugs here:
