Coffee or tea? You simply cannot make up your mind. How about having 40 different premium coffees and teas in the comfort of your own home? Sounds too good to be true? Well, Gevalia coffee is willing to do this for you, you get to choose what you want and then get ready to start enjoying your drinking pleasure. This is because the best coffee shop there is can only be found within our own homes.  We drink coffee or tea for many reasons, from those which help us relax and ease our tensions, to the simple fact that we enjoy its great flavour and taste. But why should we confine ourselves to just one flavour when we visit our favourite coffee shop when we can get to savour a different variety?

For just $14.95, you get to enjoy the Gevalia coffee experience with two boxes of coffee, a Gevalia scooper, and your very own stainless steel coffeemaker, all delivered right at your doorstep!  Who says you don’t make the best coffee?

If you love coffee, then you can probably get by on the blue cups that you drink from delis and street vendors. But on Sunday afternoon when you really want a good cup of joe, there are dozens of places that can satisfy your craving.

Using single origin beans, meaning that they come from a particular area or farm, many of these new roasters are revamping what it means to be a New York cup of coffee. At places like Gimme Coffee (Noho, Williamsburg) and Joe (various locations, with a new one on the Upper East Side) the baristas are trained professionals and don’t mess around. Only beans roasted within the past 10 days are used, and all are ground to order.

If you find yourself waiting 10 minutes for a shot of espresso, don’t be alarmed. It’s not the lines, it’s the barista making sure that the grounds are evenly tamped, that the water temperature is just right, and that it isn’t exposed to air for too long (10 seconds is about the average time it takes for an espresso to go stale, unless mixed with an additive like cream, whereby it becomes a macchiato).

Start sipping, but don’t get too comfy, each one of these coffee spots is just as good as the last.
