subject: Let's Have A Coffee Party! [print this page] Have you ever thought that it would be nice to have a themed party? Having a party is a great way to keep up with friends, family and coworkers. Additionally, having a party is a great way to network and have a fun time. In short, if you are not throwing the occasional party, well, you should reconsider. Now anyone can throw a party. But few people think of having a special theme to tie the evening together. This is where the coffee party can come in.
Everyone loves coffee and with good reason. This, of course, will translate into everyone loving a coffee party as well. Just imagine a coffee lovers delight when they hear that you are throwing a coffee party!
Having a coffee party can be relatively simple. For example, you can brew a few of your favorite different kind of coffees for your guests to try. One good suggestion is to brew coffees from around the world. This simple approach will still be of great interest to your guests as they try different types of coffee from different regions. You can even make a guessing game out of it if you wish. You can start out the evening with your different coffee pots missing their labels. After an hour or so, you can put the signs on the different pots of coffees. Seeing if people can guess where the coffee is from is a lot of fun.
Of course, black hot coffee isn't the only option at your disposal for a coffee party either. A coffee party, by its very nature, means that you will be able to serve a variety of different kinds of coffee drinks and coffee related items. Iced coffee is the perfect example of a coffee drink that people often do not enjoy often enough. A well-prepared coffee drink will seem like a real treat to your guest.
While iced coffee is a great addition to your coffee party, there are some other options that you should consider as well. For example, don't forget to have decaffeinated options for your guests as well. Some of your guests may have to work the next day. As a result they may truly appreciate a decaffeinated option or two.
If you want to seriously impress at your coffee party, then espresso and desserts are two options that are can't misses. Few times are more perfect for your espresso machine than a party. Of course, this is doubly true for a coffee themed party. Your guests will simply beam when they see your espresso machine in action. Of course, if you want send them into a state of near coffee nirvana, then serve both your espresso and your desserts at the same time.
Don't forget to give your guests a little coffee cheer as they are going home. Having a contest to win some of your favorite bags of coffee or giving away small coffee treats such as coffee themed desserts will give your guests something to remember your party by for days or even weeks to come.
