Since I LOVE warm drinks on a cold day (and boy has it been cold lately) I will resume making warm drinks. Warm drinks all around! Maybe I can finally take off one of my layers off (seriously, I am wearing 4 layers right now and I am still cold)
So what drink can I drink in the morning. A morning drink that is warm… Think Cathleen, think.
Obviously the drink that comes to mind is coffee.
Now during the school year, coffee is my drug. And Starbucks is my dealer. They even knew me there,they knew what I wanted, and they sometimes even gave me a free drink. Actually a girl beside me wanted to buy me a drink because she thought I was Miley Cyrus. Way off the mark, so I obviously didn’t accept.
Now since I was way lazy to think up some coffee drink by myself, I was browsing around recipes (one of my favorite pastimes) and I found a strange coffee made from the feces of the Asian Palm Civit. One of the most expensive coffees in the world.
I don’t know about you, but I’ll stick to the coffee I know.

2. While the coffee brews, warm coconut milk and honey in a small saucepan on medium-low heat. Stir until the honey is dissolved. Pour coffee into the mixture and stir well. Pour into a mug, and enjoy!
I was intrigued by the name coconut coffee. I love both I am coconut lover, but not tried a coffee with it. Looks delicious.
I have never heard of this but I know it must taste fantastic; creamy good.

Coconut coffee is a genius idea and it sounds incredibly delicious! 🙂
This looks delicious .. never thought of coconut coffee, you have me inspired. 🙂
As if Miley Cyrus can't afford her own coffee. Sheesh, I don't get the star struck. Pay it forward people to somebody who could actually use your generosity. Ok, now that I have that out of my system, I'm going to go make coffee.
Mmmmm I want to try this! It sound delightfully delicious!
Delicious!
I have some coconut milk in my fridge that I need to use!
delicious looking coffee
following your site on google friends 🙂

If I drank coffee, I'd definitely drink it like this.
What an interesting way to enjoy a cup of coffee!
I can smell the amazing coffee aroma! such interesting flavours. too bad I'm coffee intolerant now, gives me insomnia even if I take it in the morning.
Wow this is really an innovative idea… Never know that v can add coconut to coffee… Great
Hi Cathleen, your coffee look awesome. Like the combination of ingredients that you added in the coffee, I'm sure it taste good.
Have a nice day.
I am a big fan of Santa's White Christmas which is a coconut flavored based coffee you have no idea how happy this post has made me.. going to make some right now! THANK YOU!!!!
never heard of coconut coffee. sounds interesting. nice recipe.
Awesome recipe!! Being a big fan of coffee, coconut & cinnamon I am sure I am going to love this coffee.
…and ya, you have an uncanny resemblance to Miley Cyrus! Should have accepted the coffee!!
The first thing I have in the morning is a tall mug of coffee with frosty milk, and cinnamon or cocoa powder on top. Love your coffee…yumm!
I love coconut and coffee separately, so I'm sure I'd love the combination together. It sounds fantastic!
It's still very cold out there ?! And here I'm complaining that I haven't even taken some decent photos of my ice cream and it's already melting ! lol
Who needs Starbucks if you can make that yummy spiced coconut coffee ?! 😀 A cup here , please , with extra cream !
Civet coffee ? Ugh ! I rather stick to Nescafe ! hee hee

It sounds very easy to make this dish though it looks like a long ingredient list! bookmarked!
usually it's milo for me in the morning. I do take coffee on and off and coconut milk in coffee seems like a creamy and yummy thing to me. I'm not sure if you look like miley cyrus but i see a very pretty face in your profile pic!
Starbucks is my dealer also. But this coconut coffee would definitely rival it in awesomeness!
Wow! That is such an interesting combination – coffee with coconut milk…sounds and looks great!
I'm a huge fan of coconut and coffee…I need to make this happen soon! Thanks for sharing, sweet friend! I hope you have a beautiful day. Thanks for making mine more delicious!
