Winter Warming Spices

As we continue through the winter with chilly temperatures, it’s the perfect time to highlight some sweet spice to elevate those go to, warming beverages. Coffee and cocoa have long been infused with spices, creating beverages that reflect ingredients and traditions from around the world. The US has recently seen interests growth, with Yemeni coffee houses popping up, influencing beverages with traditional ingredient combinations, creating a layered, rich, sensory experience. Cinnamon, cardamom and star anise are classic additions in this space, not only for enhancing flavour and aroma, but also providing additional health benefits.

Cinnamon, a well known aroma and flavour enhancer provides additional sweetness, warmth and an earthyness, but it is also known for its antioxidants, while also thought to assist with reducing inflammation and blood sugar levels.

Traditionally, Cardamom has been used to help with digestion and to alleviate bloating, but it's hint of pepperiness add a delicious complexity, and intensity to classic winter beverages. Last, but not least on the flavour scale, is Star anise. Its liquorice like flavour complements the natural taste of coffee and the aroma contributes to an overall enhanced sensory experience, plus - its rich in antimicrobial properties!
