Believe it or not, I drank my first cup of coffee in over 10 years, just a few months ago. Needless to say, I am hooked again. The first sip back, and I knew I back in for good. So naturally, I did what I do best, shop for new stuff. I wanted a coffee machine, a milk frother, and obviously a cool mug to go along with my shopping spree. Upon my shopping journey, I found a number of useful products I didn't realise existed, but now I want.
If you're also a coffee-lover, then I saved you the time of shopping. Ahead, I curated a list of 12 fun finds that will surely make your morning brew a little easier, or hopefully at least more enjoyable. From a compact coffee machine that'll look good [1] on your countertop to a cold-brew maker, prepare to leave with at least one thing. Take a look.
