Holiday Traditions Start With Coffee 

December may look different all around the world, but there’s one thing almost every culture shares during the holiday season. Coffee.☕

Not just as a drink, but as a ritual. A gathering point. A reason for people to pause, connect, and celebrate.

From candlelit breakfasts in Scandinavia to pre-dawn processions in the Philippines to clay-pot brews in Mexico, coffee has woven itself into some of the most heartfelt holiday traditions across the globe.

This week, we explore how families across the globe weave coffee into their December celebrations.

Some of these traditions are ancient, others are delicious, and a few may surprise you.

If you love learning how different cultures welcome the holiday season, warm up a mug and come along for this heartwarming journey.

When the cold wind blows and the snow begins to blanket the world outside, the last thing you want to do is to bundle back up and brave the icy roads just for a coffee run.

But thankfully... you don’t have to, 'cause your kitchen has become the coziest café in town.

The Brentwood Espresso & Cappuccino Maker hums softly on the counter, pulling a bold, rich shot of espresso that instantly warms the room with its rich, unmistakable aroma. It’s the promise of comfort in a cup.

You swirl together creamy eggnog and milk with the Brentwood Cordless Milk Frother & Warmer, watching as it transforms into a velvety cloud of froth...warm, steamy, and gently spiced.

Then, with a quick blend, the Brentwood 12-Speed Glass Jar Blender whips up a snowy puff of fresh whipped cream, ready to crown your cup with a final flourish.

A few shakes of cinnamon on top and you are in for a heavenly treat!

And, that first sip? Pure winter bliss. No traffic. No lines. No slipping on the ice in the coffee shop parking lot.

Just you, your favorite mug, and the quiet magic of a perfect homemade Eggnog Latte (or your favorite winter espresso drink)...all without leaving the warmth and comfort of home.

This winter, skip the drive.
Make the moment yours with Brentwood.
