How to choose gifts for tea and coffee lovers
Think about how they brew
The best gift depends on how they already make their drinks. A cafetière fan may enjoy a burr grinder, a pod machine user might like a milk frother, and a tea drinker may prefer loose leaf with a good infuser. Fit the gift to their routine and it will get used.
Freshness matters
Coffee tastes best when it is fresh, so choose smaller quantities of whole beans rather than a huge bag. Tea should be kept in an airtight tin away from light. A tasting set is a good way to try different flavours.
Things to avoid
Avoid gadgets that duplicate what they already own, and check compatibility before buying anything for a pod machine. Check the current price and delivery date on Amazon before ordering.
