Drinking coffee is now for suckers. There’s a much more convenient and gelatinous option available to stay caffeinated.
GO CUBES, by Nootrobox, are here to help reinvent your caffeine-ingesting experience. Two chewable coffee gummies pack the same amount of caffeine as your average cup of coffee. They’re available in three flavors: Mocha, Pure Drip, and Latte.
No more waiting for beans to steep, water to drip, or having a barista spell your name wrong. Check them out here.

Coffee, a wonderful start to the day, is also a popular art medium. Now, coffee has graduated from analog to digital, with the Coffee Drip Printer.
Brought to us by Ted Kinsman, the printer borrows from the technique of pointillism. Dispensing its ‘ink’ one drop at a time in varying sizes, along with coffee’s natural hues, give each print its tonal qualities.
Although, any colored liquid can be used to create some point-art, coffee would be better for anyone looking to lay down some earth tones. I hear that drinking coffee ink will also help make mornings tolerable.

If you’re a coffee snob on-the-go — it’s OK, you’re amongst friends — then the Cafflano Coffeemaker should be in your cup holder.
The handy all-in-one coffeemaker will grind fresh beans, drip-brew, and then provide a tumbler cup for which to drink from. The only reason to step foot in another coffee shop, will be to laugh at the people standing in line… and perhaps to grab some sugar.
Check it out here.

Because we can never have enough meth-inspired coffee shops, a new Breaking Bad-themed spot is coming to Brooklyn.
Walter’s, named after the TV series’ title character, is an Istanbul-based coffee roaster, with its second location set to open in NYC this summer.
Naturally, baristas will don hazmat suits and gasmasks while they carefully brew your coffee. No mention if they’ll do a special blue batch.

It’s that time of year again. Time to express yourself with greeting cards, flowers, and now, some hot chocolate on chocolate action.
Starbucks has just released their Valentine’s Day drink offerings, and they just might be the thing to get you in the mood. This particular threesome includes, Molten Hot Chocolate, Molten Chocolate Frappuccino Blended Beverage, and Molten Chocolate Latte.
The drinks are only available this week, so you still have some time to share them with a loved one. After that you’ll just have to use your words. Happy Valentine’s!
