BLEND OF MILK AND COFFEE

Coffee always makes me awake every time I feel sleepy in the office or at home during wee hours. But I am not a coffee addict. I drink milk every morning before going to work and in the evening before I sleep.

Coffee is one of the most beverages worldwide nowadays. It is a widely-consumed stimulant beverage prepared from roasted seeds that is commonly called coffee beans of the coffee plant drink by the coffee prince. Ha-ha.

Coffee was first consumed in the 9^th century when it was discovered in the highlands of Ethiopia. Brazil is the world leader in production of green coffee followed by Vietnam, Indonesia, Colombia, Mexico and India. In the Philippines, the city of Amadeo is the coffee capital of the country. Lipa is where the first coffee was planted in the Philippines. Arabica is known for its good flavor and aroma. Benguet is one of the highest regions in the Philippines where this variety grows best. That’s why there’s this coffee called KAPENG BENGUET.

On the other hand, milk is an opaque white liquid produced by the mammary glands of female mammals. There are two distinct types of milk consumption: a natural source of nutrition for all infant mammals; and a food product for humans of all ages derived from other animals. The term milk is also used for whitish non-animal substitutes such as soy milk, rice milk, almond milk, and coconut milk.
