Posted by Gen S on
- It's a necessity for the Christmas Day breakfast or brunch.
- Drinking coffee gives you full cognitive power when it comes to your Christmas to-do list: stay alert, stay sharp, stay focussed! (Hopefully.)
- It goes well with Christmas pudding, mince pies and pretty much all other desserts.
- Coffee brings people together. (We wrote more about that here.)
- It will keep you awake when your relatives are talking your ear off.
- It will serve you when it’s 10pm on Christmas eve, and you still need to wrap presents.
- Makes for a great coffee gift.
- Your Great Aunt makes her first appearance in years? Coffee beans are also a nifty emergency gift.
- Have a cup when you’re loaded alcoholically and you need to give the illusion that you’re in control.
- It's an excellent opportunity to show off that new set of espresso cups you recently bought.
- It's critical for all recipes with a mocha flavour.
- Various studies like this one have associated coffee-drinking with a lower risk of death due to heart disease, cancer, stroke, diabetes, and respiratory and kidney disease. So, bring on the grease, refined sugar and preservatives! (Or not.)
- If you haven’t totally ignored your nutrient intake over the holidays, it helps to know that coffee is a good source of antioxidants. (Apparently.)
- Overdid it with the holiday carbs and now you’re a tad blocked? Luckily, coffee can work as a laxative…
- Too much holiday eating in general? According to an old wives tale (nonna-style), a bit of black coffee can settle your stomach.
- Funny enough, some people depend on caffeine to combat the holiday stress!
- Shirk your bring-a-plate responsibility and bring coffee instead.
- Hosting? Brewing coffee makes your home smell amazing.
- Going away for the holidays and need favours from your neighbours? Thank them with coffee beans!
