A worldly morning buzz.
Seeing the world is about experiencing new cultures, but how to achieve that varies for many. Regardless of whether you believe in hitting the most touristed spots or heading off the beaten path, most need a morning coffee. Local cafes are a peek into everyday life—people in a vulnerable haze (just woken up, pre-caffeine)—as well as a taste of the city. While the purpose of giving you a burst of energy is the same across the board, the way in which it’s consumed differs as you make your way around the world.
For those growing tired of mediocre home-brewed coffee, or just needing a change-up, we’re recommending that you reconnect with your travel roots and recreate your favorite drink abroad right in your very kitchen. We’re rounding up the most-talked-about and consumed caffeinated beverages from around the world—from a café Cubano to a matcha latte—and teaching you how to make them at home.
