How Did Your Affair With Coffee Begin?
My Grandma introduced me to coffee when I was young and I still drink it black. I was probably nine years old when I had my first taste, then at twelve a small cup, and later a full mug. While I observed that many of my family members added sugar and cream, I thought there was something cool and authentic about her drinking it black. So, I followed in kind.
Recently at Brazen Careerist, in the coffee group, a coffee aficiando asked the question:
So, how did everyone get started drinking coffee?
Fellow members were quick to answer, and many were introduced by someone in their family. I wasn’t the only one. Curious, I gave my Grandma a call to find out how her affair with coffee began.
My Grandma still drinks Folgers and Maxwell House, but my family recently bought her a Kerig K-Cup, so she’s beginning to explore… Regardless of her coffee brand preferences, Grandma told me that she was likewise introduced to coffee when she was young. Her Grandma
use to put a few drops of coffee into her milk, and it was the fragrance that drew her in. It wasn’t until she was older that she moved from coffee with sugar and cream to coffee black; she didn’t enjoy the taste of powdered milk offered at restaurants.Like me, my Grandma’s affair with coffee was and continues to be social. It wasn’t just about the coffee.
So, now it’s your turn. How did your affair with coffee begin?
