Every morning I look forward to my cup of coffee. I sip it as I take some time to read a novel and find this to be an excellent way to start a day.
If you would like to have a coffee drink that is a bit fancier, this book contains 50 recipes for just that. One caveat, a number of them seem to depend on having an espresso maker. That said, there are some great looking drinks here including Cafe au Lait, Cold Brew, Scandinavian Coffee, Flat White, Cubano, a number of flavored lattes and frozen drinks like a mocha frappe or an affogato. The book concludes with some coffee cocktail recipes.
In addition to the recipes this title has information on the different coffee roasts, types of grinders for beans, filters, coffee history, coffee makers and more.
If coffee is you thing, you might want to give this title a look.
Many thanks to NetGalley and the publisher for this title in exchange for an honest review.

Brew something from the book: Cream Soda Cold Brew
Two very different drinks are combined to make this delicious summer beverage. The fizz from the soda mixed with the rich, full-bodied espresso equals a well-rounded finish. It has only been in recent years that coffee and soda have started crossing paths. There are many recipes using other types of sodas; however, cream soda is a great trial option as its flavors mimic some typical syrups used in coffee drinks. So, next time you’re craving coffee on a hot summer’s day, whip up this ice-cold concoction and let your cares melt away
Directions:
1. Fill a tall glass with ice and pour in the cold brew.
2. Holding the glass at a slant, pour the cream soda into the cold brew, trying not to create too much fizz. Smile and enjoy the ride.
Recipe tip:
To keep any cold coffee drink from becoming diluted, fill ice cube trays with cold brew and freeze them. Use these cold brew cubes in your drink—as they melt, they won’t dilute your coffee!
Ingredients:
- Ice, for serving
- 6 ounces cold brew
- 6 ounces cream soda
