Drinking coffee is a ritual that accompanies us every day. Nothing is better than a warm, aromatic coffee that stimulates action. It can be enriched with milk, cream, syrup, chocolate, or fruit.

Fruits pair perfectly with coffee. This applies to both citrus and berry fruits. If you want to add a twist to your usual coffee, add strawberries and blend everything into a smooth cream. You haven't tried it this way yet.

What to add to coffee to enhance its flavour?

Coffee is one of the most popular beverages in the world. You can choose from hundreds of different varieties of beans, each differing in its degree of roasting, taste, and aroma. Coffee enthusiasts agree that "real" coffee is black, but many drink it with milk, cream, or sugar.

In cafés, it is often served with whipped cream and flavoured syrup. Such coffee ceases to be just a drink and becomes a dessert. A sweet coffee with additives contains around 1500 kilojoules. If you are a fan of flavoured coffees and don't want to add more calories, try coffee with strawberries.

It may sound strange, but strawberries go perfectly with slightly sour, slightly bitter coffee, giving it a pleasant sweetness and a refreshing, fruity note. Such a drink will put you in a great mood starting in the morning.
