This seasonal coffee brew features tasting notes of spiced apple cider, rich chocolate, and fallen leaves’ warm, earthy aroma. The quality blend is created from coffees from Brazil, Guatemala, and Columbia. If you haven’t heard of this coffee brand, Downeast Coffee Roasters strives to set itself apart from traditional coffee brands by making specialty coffee approachable and fun for everyone. Whether you’re new to drinking coffee or are a seasoned connoisseur, the brand delivers exceptional coffees for every coffee lover.

The limited-time Sweater Weather blend will be available until late November or early December, when the brand releases its next seasonal flavor in time for the winter. While you can brew Sweater Weather using any coffee-making method, the brand loves using a Hario v60 pour-over or a French press method to brew this roast. Of course, since Sweater Weather only comes in whole-bean coffee (not available in the ground), you’ll also need a quality grinder to enjoy this coffee. With flavors of spiced apple cider and the earthy aroma of fallen leaves, don’t miss the chance to try Downeast Coffee Roasters’ Sweater Weather blend while you still can.

Is black coffee good for you? Here’s what science says

How you can benefit from drinking black coffee

I'll drink coffee any which way, and when I say that, I truly mean in any form. Sometimes, I prefer a creamy cappuccino or a sweetened latte, but nothing hits the spot like starting my day with a bold cup of black coffee. Generally, I like to consume black coffee while intermittent fasting and save my more indulgent coffees to consume later in the day.

If you're also a black coffee drinker, you've probably wondered at some point, "Is black coffee good for you?" Luckily, the answer is yes, which is good, considering many of us wouldn't quit drinking black coffee even if it weren't good for our health. Several recent studies have found that when consumed in moderation, coffee can support your health. Here's how.

Why coffee may not be the best hangover cure

In the moment, the dreaded hangover might feel like it'll never end. Even if you do all the right things, like drink a glass of water in between each drink, it's hard to escape after a long night out. As someone who loves to be productive and is a definition of a "type-A" personality, I hate feeling slowed down by a hangover.

After a night of drinking, my mind naturally says, "Go downstairs and make a cup of coffee," to energize my sluggish self. But does coffee help a hangover? Or does it ultimately make it worse? Before you rush for coffee to cure your hangover, here's what to know.

How to make coffee: Perfect your drip brewing technique

Here's how to master the basics

Coffee pot

There are endless ways to brew a delectable cup of coffee, from French Press brewing to the pour-over method. Though these coffee brewing methods offer advanced precision and control, it's best to master how to make coffee with an auto-drip coffee maker first (think Grandma's coffee pot).

Since 1908, the drip coffee maker has remained the most popular way to brew coffee -- simple, effective, and easy to learn. I learned how to make coffee at a young age but only first mastered the art as an adult. As a child, I was just happy when I could brew coffee alone without waiting for someone else to brew it. Yet, I later acquired a taste for stronger, bolder coffee. This led me back to the drawing board, looking for a way to brew better (and bolder) coffee using a drip maker.
