12 Unique Coffees From Around The World

March is the month to drink coffee or tea like people do in your target language's country! Ever wonder what the traditional ways of drinking coffee in other countries are? Now is your time to find out. I was mainly able to find European and American countries that have coffeehouse cultures. Many countries throughout Africa, the Middle East, Asia and parts of Europe (mainly the UK and Russia) have strong tea cultures that I'd love to write a future article about.

Many of these countries also have the "coffeehouse culture" that gives you the freedom to drink coffee or tea any way you want at specialty cafes. I've listed ways of drinking coffee that are unique to each country. Due to globalization, many of these are starting to make their way around the world, such as how the coffee culture from multiple European countries is making strong imprints on the US. After all, cultures have always been shared.

Without further adieu, here goes!

Finland

Cheese coffee! There are special types of cheeses you can put in your coffee.

Turkey

In Turkey, coffee is traditionally drunk with a cezve, and the beans settle on the bottom.

Italy

Made with the strongest beans possible in an espresso machine, and best consumed within five minutes for a good boost to your day!

Australia

In Australia, it is popular to put ice cream in your coffee.

France

In France, café au lait (coffee and milk brewed at the same time) is the popular way to take your coffee.

Ecuador

In Ecuador and throughout much of Latin America, people brew raw sugar with their coffee.

Morocco

In Morocco, people put cloves and other spices in their coffee.

Hong Kong

In this country, you can blend coffee and tea together!

Venezuela

Venezuela has something similar to a café au lait: combine milk and expresso and warm them at the same time.

Poland

Poland is one of those countries with a similar coffee culture to the US, but it is also known for instant coffee and specialty coffee shops around its old towns.

Colombia

In Colombia, cafes actually break down the coffee by region of the country. They also take much pride in getting it straight from the farm.

Canada

Maple syrup coffee! Add a spoonful of maple syrup.

I hope you enjoyed this list! Does your country have a special way of drinking coffee?

Small towns certainly have their pros and cons. Many people who grow up in small towns find themselves counting the days until they get to escape their roots and plant new ones in bigger, "better" places. And that's fine. I'd be lying if I said I hadn't thought those same thoughts before too. We all have, but they say it's important to remember where you came from. When I think about where I come from, I can't help having an overwhelming feeling of gratitude for my roots. Being from a small town has taught me so many important lessons that I will carry with me for the rest of my life.

I can't say "thank you" enough to express how grateful I am for you coming into my life. You have made such a huge impact on my life. I would not be the person I am today without you and I know that you will keep inspiring me to become an even better version of myself.

Course registration at college can be a big hassle and is almost never talked about. Classes you want to take fill up before you get a chance to register. You might change your mind about a class you want to take and must struggle to find another class to fit in the same time period. You also have to make sure no classes clash by time. Like I said, it's a big hassle.

This semester, I was waitlisted for two classes. Most people in this situation, especially first years, freak out because they don't know what to do. Here is what you should do when this happens.

Whether you met your new love interest online, through mutual friends, or another way entirely, you'll definitely want to know what you're getting into. I mean, really, what's the point in entering a relationship with someone if you don't know whether or not you're compatible on a very basic level?

Consider these 21 questions to ask in the talking stage when getting to know that new guy or girl you just started talking to:

Challah vs. Easter Bread: A Delicious Dilemma

Is there really such a difference in Challah bread or Easter Bread?

Ever since I could remember, it was a treat to receive Easter Bread made by my grandmother. We would only have it once a year and the wait was excruciating. Now that my grandmother has gotten older, she has stopped baking a lot of her recipes that require a lot of hand usage--her traditional Italian baking means no machines. So for the past few years, I have missed enjoying my Easter Bread.
