Cafe de Moderata!. Review on Tea Vs. Coffee

As a child, I was prohibited from having coffee in my milk.'Children should not have coffee. Its bad. Stick to Bournvita(uggg) or Horlicks(ugggggggg!)'And as all children will agree.what is banned is oh so exciting! My interest in coffee began.

And now when im all grown up and can make my own choices as far as beverages are concerned( among other things).i can safely say that I love coffee. Its one of those things that'picks' you up and puts you up there. But even though I love it what ive noticed is that a hot cup of this rich aromatic drink or a frothy galss of chilled coffee tastes ever so delicious when its had once in a while.

We human beings tend to go overboard with everything.and if we like something.we really go after it.dont we? And as a result we over do it all.coffee becomes just another drink that we have'all' the time. . we keep making it stronger and finally we are imune to that facinating aroma and lovely taste. Alas

we lose out on a great drink.

Some time back I working long hours and was on the dreaded night shift in a news room where tensions are high and one needs to fight sleep. In one corner stood the coffee machine.I statred drinking coffee like good old water! Mocchachino, Cappuchino, (excuse my spellings here!), caramel, hazelnut,  ( where is the coffee?).Anyways.there came a time when I just couldnt stand coffee.so I gave up for a while.

I am so glad that now I can enjoy it again. Get home from work beat a strong cup .make it exactly the way I like it.and enjoy it.  If you like coffee take some coffee powder and put sugar in it. Then with very little water.keep mixing it till you have a light brown thik paste(the mixing takes a while and be careful not to put too much water).store this paste in the fridge. And when ever you want coffee take a spoonful of  the pase; add boiling water and milk to taste and stir. Sprinkle some drinking chocolate on it. You can now enjoy a good cup of nicely beaten coffee( complete with that trade mark froth that barista thrives on!)

So people.please enjoy your coffee!
