Many popular coffee additives actually don't pair well with coffee.
Even milk, which is considered the ideal partner for coffee, is superfluous there.
Culinary expert of TUT NEWS, chef and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova will share with you advice on what products you definitely shouldn’t combine coffee with.
Milk is indeed first on the list, and there are a number of reasons for this.
Firstly, milk significantly increases the caloric content of the drink. Secondly, every fourth person experiences bloating when drinking this combination of products. Thirdly, milk neutralizes the invigorating effect of caffeine.
If you really want coffee with milk, you can add cow's milk analogues - oat, soy or coconut.
It is not recommended to add strong alcoholic drinks to coffee, as this puts a lot of strain on the liver.
It is also better not to overuse honey, since it is a source of fructose, which stimulates the appetite.
For the same reason, it is not recommended to add sugar and sweet syrups - it is better to opt for sugar substitutes.
