For some people, drinking coffee is not just a morning routine – it’s a way to boost energy. Well, caffeine works and for most people, it’s actually healthy to drink a cup a day. It helps them think and work better. However, with they hype of coffee shops like Starbucks, Seattle’s Best and so on, drinking coffee seems like a luxury that not people can experience.
However, we say that it’s not true! Get that caffeine rush in the morning without spending more than a hundred pesos. You can actually drink delicious coffee by spending below a P100.
Make Your Own Coffee
With the rise of coffee shops, people tend to forget that they can actually buy ground coffee in the market and make their own. It’s cheaper this way compared to buying out all the time. If you want to enhance the taste, buy cream, sugar or even milk. Brands like Nescape, Kopiko, Jimm’s and so on are sure to give you the taste and aroma you’re looking for. At the same time, they’ll give you that energy you’re craving for!
3 in 1 Coffee Mixes
If you’re too lazy to estimate the amount of ground coffee, cream, milk and so on, you can rely on 3 in 1 coffee. Just add this to hot water and you’re sure to get a good morning. You can find these in different stores. You may also find them with a plastic cup and a mixer. Prices of 3 in 1 mixes range from P8-P15.
Fast Food Joints
Fast food coffee is just as good as 3 in 1 mixes and they’re cheap. These are already served to you, mixed and ready to go. Usually, these cost about P25. Of course, it depends on the restaurant you’re at. The good thing about being here is that, some fast food joints offer free coffee with breakfast. Imagine how much you can save with that!
Iced Coffee
If you’re not a fan of coffee but would like something similar, iced coffee is for you. Convenience stores sell these. The creators of iced coffee have really revolutionized the drink. In fact, people who don’t like the drink have started loving iced coffee. Usually these cost about P25-P30.
Canned Coffee
Seems like everything can be bought in convenience stores these days. Popular coffee brands like Nescafe have created a substitute for coffee. Instead of you creating coffee from scratch, you can buy them in can. One difference is that, it’s cold. This way, you don’t have to wait for it to cool. Because these are branded, you might have to spend around P50-P60 just to drink one.
Drip Coffee
Again, convenience stores have done it again. Aside from buying iced drinks or juices, you can also buy drip coffee. Similar to blended coffee in coffee stores, these are already given special flavors and are definitely cheaper. Some stores like 7/11 sell them for P35-P55, depending on the size. You might not have a fancy cup of coffee but you’re sure to find delight in its taste, aroma and effects.
