Did you know that after petroleum, coffee is the most valuable commodity in the world?
Coffee comes in an abundance of orders, from a simple drip coffee to a decadent cappuccino. And there are now a wide variety of coffee flavors.
Coffee drinkers may already have their favorite orders and flavors, but read on for the top 5 most popular coffee flavors on the market today, and you may just be enticed to try a new one next time you go to order your cup of joe.
French vanilla is a popular go-to flavor for many. The sweet aroma of the vanilla is a pleasant, subtle one that compliments and softens the bold and sometimes bitter taste of coffee. French vanilla is best suited for light or medium roast beans.
Having become too popular, French vanilla is popular both at your local coffee shop as well as often found in coffees with single serve packaging for your convenience.
Also amongst the top coffee flavors of the world is hazelnut. Its sweet, nutty and buttery taste softens the taste similar to French vanilla, but without the sweetness. The nutty, rich taste complements the woodiness of coffee.
If you’re looking for a smooth and mild coffee rather than something bold and bodied, hazelnut may be for you. As well, it pairs well with chocolate and vanilla, which makes it a great choice if you’re mixing your coffee with something else; for example, Baileys during the holiday season.
Like French vanilla, the abundance of hazelnut coffee drinkers means it’s also available at your local grocery store and K-Cups.
Popularized by Starbucks, pumpkin spice has become a popular coffee flavor year-round, rather than just in the fall. It’s now become a go-to choice for coffee drinks around the globe.
Pumpkin spice often includes spice blends of nutmeg, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves. The aromas of these spices paired with those of the coffee make it a heavenly combination and rich taste.
Thankfully for fans, pumpkin spice is widely available at grocery stores, not just at coffee houses. You can also try experimenting by making your pumpkin spice latte at home or preparing your own from scratch at home with natural ingredients.
Light on caffeine and softer on flavor, mocha is a great choice for new coffee drinkers. Mocha is often people’s “first” coffee order. The chocolatey, rich taste with the caffeine kick makes it an easy drink and popular choice among teenagers.
Another decadent coffee flavor is caramel coffee. Similar to mocha, it has a sweet, pleasant flavor that makes it a great choice when you want to treat yourself or indulge on the weekend.
Caramel coffees usually have a strong and rich taste. Most often, it’s added as a syrup to coffee, which also makes it an easy one to make at home.
Have any of these coffee flavors enticed you? The next time you’re at your local coffee shop, give one of these coffee flavors a try. The range in taste profiles means there’s something everyone will enjoy.
