5 Ways That Can Help You Have Coffee In The Morning

Coffee is such a wonderful thing. It wakes you up, helps with your memory, helps with your immune system, can be warm, and can be very comforting to your whole body system. If going with a cold drink it could shock you awake as well. Some people still have a hard time finding the time for it in the morning though. Here are 5 ways that can help you have coffee in the Morning.

1. Coffee To Go
This is a wonderful morning starter coffee from Copper Mountain. All the person who is getting it ready has to do is just shake well, remove plastic top and discard, microwave for 60 seconds, let stand for 30 seconds, and then enjoy. It comes with a great sippy lid. The picture shows one of my favorites which is a Hazelnut Coffee Latte. In this can alone, there are less than 100 calories. This is definitely a quick solution to finding time for coffee in the morning.

2. Make Iced Coffee
 This idea is better suited for your afternoon, but is a great recipe for morning times also. Start with an airtight container or thermos. Put several ice cubes inside to fill it up 3/4's of the way. Put in 3 big tablespoons of instant coffee granules. Add water, close the container tightly, and shake it all up. Open it up and you have iced coffee. This is a wonderful recipe that instills that you are still getting much of the antioxidants from the coffee, but you still have time.

3. Instant Coffee
Instant coffee is one of the oldest things still happening with coffee. All you need to do is stick some coffee in a mug of boiling water and mix it together. If you would like you can mix it with one of the 100 ingredients mentioned in the previous blog. Voila! You have your own cup of coffee ready in just minutes. Pour it in a coffee to-go container and enjoy sipping it while waiting on the heavy traffic in the morning.

4. Install A Coffee Machine At Your Place of Employment
Your co-workers would love this idea and it might even help you get a couple dollars of extra change in your pocket.

Install a Coffee Machine. Set up a basket of instant coffees, coffee flavorings, and a ice container. Mark down how much each thing costs. Put out a basket to put the money in. (At some places you might have to set up a camera as well). Then, watch the magic work. Everybody gets their coffee including you and you get a couple extra dollars of change in your pocket each day. Yes!

5. Stop at Your Local Starbucks
Starbucks has a great drive thru. Many Starbucks have hired extra people to work the morning hours. Drive through the drive thru and enjoy your coffee. (Warning: this might be the most time costly of the ideas because although Starbucks has hired extra people, you still might have to sit awhile).

Enjoy your coffee for all it's worth!

How Do You Grow COFFEE?

HOW TO GROW COFFEE

Lots of people grow various coffees.

Lots of people grow trees.

Many enjoy the fruit from the tree,

but how can it be that coffee from grow from a tree?

Maybe you have heard that coffee grows from a tree or maybe you were wondering just how it grows. Well, today I'm am going to explain to you just how you could grow a coffee tree.

The Soil Type

Coffee grows best in a soil that can take a lot of humidity. It does not do well in a soil that has a lot of ashy texture to it, but one that is more like clay. The soil in Jamaica is really much of a clay mixture. This is the reason why coffee grows well there. The type of soil is different within the different elevations of a mountain. This is the reason why the coffee flavoring that you get at the end differs as much as the soil. Usually the more humid the soil can get and still withstand the moisture the better the flavorng of the coffee.

What part of the Coffee Plant Do You Plant?

You can buy a whole potted tree from a Greenhouse Store that is in one of the southern states of the United States. Then, you can lay clay soil down. After that, you would need to make sure the soil is rich. Thus you could plant a whole potted tree.

You can buy seedlings from a store or you can even plant the green cherry part of a coffee bean.

How do you plant coffee seedlings?

1. First thing is coffee trees do best in a place where it has lots of room to grow and where it is hot and humid year round. They also need lots of light and air. Coffee trees just love water and soak up plenty of it. Therefore, you might want to really think about if the place that you are trying to plant the coffee tree in has a wet tropical type of climate.
2. You could supplement the light during the winter with flourescent light bulbs and heat lamps, but please think about the air temperature around the plant and how cold it might get.
3. So, finally, you have the perfect condition to plant your coffee tree in. Take the seedling out of it's pocket while holding as close to the roots as you can.
4. Dig about a 1 inch deep whole in the ground.
5. Push the seedling down into the ground and cover the roots up.
6. Make sure you keep on checking on it and water it plenty.
7. Feed it with nutrients once every two weeks.
8. It takes about 4 years to grow your first coffee bean. Therefore, use your patience.
9. Enjoy your coffee beans and the blossoms that come with it.
