Change-Up Your Morning Coffee with These Spices

Having a cup of coffee in the morning is a great way to start your day. Most of us have our go-to add-ons like cream, sugar, milk, vegan milk, and the list goes on. One thing most people don’t think about adding to their coffee are spices. There are certain spices that are popular in the Middle East for flavoring coffee and they will definitely up your morning coffee game if you add them. 

Cardamom

In Tukey, Cardamom is added to most black coffee. It melds with the coffee’s natural bitter flavor to further enhance it. Not only does cardamom make coffee taste even better, but the spice itself contains antioxidants which are good for your overall health. 

Cinnamon

Coffee itself wakes you up and gets your brain started. Cinnamon is often sprinkled on top, but you should consider stirring in a dash of the sweet-smelling stuff. Like cardamom, cinnamon is an antioxidant, and simply smelling it triggers the memory part of your brain. You might find that your cognitive abilities improve if you start drinking your coffee with cinnamon.
