For many people, coffee is an essential part of every morning. Some add milk to it, others drink it with cinnamon, and there are also fans of sweet variations like pumpkin spice latte. However, one addition will help in the battle with extra pounds, enhancing the flavour in such a way that chain coffee shops might as well not exist anymore.

If you love coffee and the pistachio craze has reached you, too, you will love this drink from the first sip. It will diversify your morning routine and bring a range of health benefits.

Pistachio coffee

The intense aroma of coffee combined with the delicate sweetness of pistachios creates a unique flavour. The simplest way is to add a teaspoon of pistachio paste to hot coffee. You can use both espresso and traditionally brewed coffee. For a creamier consistency, try a pistachio latte. Simply froth the milk and add it to the espresso with pistachio paste.

It is best to choose pistachio paste that contains only nuts and nothing else. Unfortunately, you can find products enriched with sugar, salt, or oil, which are unnecessary.

Pistachio paste - health benefits

Pistachio paste is a delicious addition to coffee and a source of many valuable nutrients. It contains B vitamins and minerals such as zinc, magnesium, and potassium, essential for our body. Thanks to the fibre content, we feel full longer, and our intestines work more efficiently. This way, coffee with pistachio paste can support weight loss. Thanks to this, we can feel better and have more energy to act. However, it is worth remembering that pistachio paste is quite high in calories, so it should be an addition to the diet, not its foundation.

Of course, coffee with pistachio paste alone will not do all the work. We must remember to exercise and eat healthy, but this drink can be a nice addition to our diet.
