International Coffee Day (also known as Coffee Day or National Coffee Day) is an annual event observed on September 29 in a handful of countries for the celebration and enjoyment of the popular beverage coffee.This day is also used to promote fair trade coffee and to raise awareness for the plight of the coffee growers. On this day, many businesses around the world offer free or discounted cups of coffee. Some businesses share coupons and special deals with their loyal followers via social networking.

While the exact origin of International Coffee Day is unknown, many countries around the world participate in this event. International Coffee Day was promoted in Japan by The All Japan Coffee Association (全日本コーヒー協&#20250, and first celebrated in 1983. The name "International Coffee Day" originates from the National Coffee Day in the United States, which was mentioned publicly as early as 2005. The name "International Coffee Day" was first used by the Southern Food and Beverage Museum which called a press conference on October 3, 2009 to celebrate 'International Coffee Day' and to announce the first New Orleans Coffee Festival. International Coffee Day was promoted in China by the International Coffee Organization, and was first celebrated in 1997, and made into an annual celebration in early April 2001.[

In celebration of this day, I ask, what's your favorite coffee/coffee drink?!

Also, don't forget to check around to see if any shops around your area are giving out free coffee or discounted coffee in celebration of this fantastic drink !

 

[Allez Phill]

I'll roast up some black and probably add some creamer. We have tons of coffee at my house not being brewed.

 

[Syphon Filter]

never knew there was a day. Love coffee.

 

[ponpo]

Best day.

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Coffee is too hot. It burns and I don't like it.

 

[rude]

Didn't know it had a day. I love Starbucks! Gonna get a venti peppermint mocha to celebrate.

 

[Allez Phill]

Coffee is too hot. It burns and I don't like it.

Iced coffee?

 

[GoldenEye 007]

Iced coffee?

I feel like that isn't the "real deal" at that point.

 

[Hip Hop]

eww coffee.


My stomach feels like crap after drinking it. Not a fan of it.

 

[Wario64]

I drink coffee like once every 4 years

 

[Pastry]

Have a nice big jug of cold brew coffee that'll be ready in the morning

 

[Jake.]

Go to Starbucks. Their coffee is getting to the point of melted milkshake status, but their coffees aren't too hard hitting in terms of flavor. Just let it cool and enjoy it.

 

[Plywood]

Ya brew it!

 

[InfiniteBento]

I feel like that isn't the "real deal" at that point.

Not true ! May I introduce you to cold brewed coffee !

 

[Pastry]

I feel like that isn't the "real deal" at that point.

Cold brew is the best way to brew coffee, steep and let it sit for 15 hours.

 

[PureYeti]

I need one of those fancy coffee gizmos in my life someday. I will make some vietnamese coffee tomorrow.

 

[waypoetic]

And it coincided with me actually having time to enjoy a cup this morning! Nice.

 

[Askherserenity]

I drink a lot of coffee. Hot in the mornings and iced coffee the rest of the day. No cream/milk, just sugar.

But I'm not sure what's going on in this gif. Never seen coffee being made like that. What's it called?

 

[Allez Phill]

Not true ! May I introduce you to cold brewed coffee !

Cold brew, man I love coffee. Like seriously, nothing can go wrong with it... unless it's too sweet.

What's it called?

Cold brew?

Oops, apparently what you're asking about is something different. Still try some cold brew though.

This is pour over, likely a reproduction of a Hario V60.

The brew method is known as a "pour over" or "v60" sometimes referenced as "drip brew" also.

 

[DarkKyo]

Nice. An excuse to make a ton of fucking coffee tomorrow. Can't wait!

 

[sixteen-bit]

I like that it's on a Monday

Start that work week right!

 

[codhand]

I like that it's on a Monday

Start that work week right!

it's my favorite drug to be high on at work

for OP, Italian macchiato

but i settle for work-based, maxwell house and kuerig

 

[diggmcbadass]

First cup of coffee I had today was the worst coffee I have had in years.

Second cup was alright though. Nothing special. I miss espresso made from freshly roasted beans.

 

[Pickman]

Coffee gives me the shits.

More power to you coffee drinkers, though. I'll stick with my tea.

 

[Cuphead]

Fill me up!

 

[Bacon]

I absolutely love coffee. Can only really enjoy it on the weekends as I tolerate shitty office coffee during the week (it's not that bad though)

 

[ElectricKaibutsu]

You've got to be kidding me. I ran out of coffee today. It's like the first day in a month that I didn't drink coffee. I bought some Guetmala Peaberry beans though. It looks like I'll be doing coffee day tomorrow.

 

[Zombine]

Coffee makes me crash super hard. If I drink it in the morning, by about 9:30 at work I feel like I am going to puke.

 

[DMczaf]

Every day is national coffee day.

 

[braves01]

4-6 cups per dey keeps the doctor at bay.

 

[baterism]

I'll drink my third cup of black today while listening to this song to commemorate the International Coffee Day.

 

[Ultimadrago]

Happy Second Birthday, Extollere!

 

[strafer]

I'm drinking it as we speak.

Such a lovely drug.

 

[Randolph Freelander]

Every day is national coffee day.

That right there.

[bjork]

Coffee is too hot. It burns and I don't like it.

"What do you mean there's no ice? You mean I gotta drink this coffee hot?"

 

[stn]

Never knew such a day existed! I like either all black with nothing added, a cafe latte, or ice coffee. Espresso is also great. Heck, I like all of it.

 

[apocalidiot]

Awwww yeah!!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b1ktIMJ-Grk

Also, fuck "bullet proof coffee". That shit is gross

 

[Mr.Swag]

Whenever I use my French press I feel like a gangster

 

[Volotaire]

Anyone in Central London must visit either Monmouth or Prufrocks Coffee. If you want a Flat White go to Flat White. Be wary, Monmouth has lines going out of the door every day.

[RurouniZel]

Happy Coffee Day! Drink up!

 

[InfiniteBento]

I forgot to share my favorite coffee drinks!

They would have to be a perfectly pulled shot of espresso or a gibraltar (which is a 1:2 ratio of espresso to milk.)

I absolutely adore coffee. My blood is basically made of it.

 

[Into]

Aww yeah. I like mine all black, Wesley Snipes like, i be up all night

 

[studyguy]

Had some this morning.

 

[PhantomHound]

Everyday is coffee day for me.

 

[The Purple Pill]

no wonder I've been drinking so many Mochas today.

didn't know of international coffee day, but it sounds like the best day.
