DREO BaristaMaker Air — DREO / DREO

DREO’s newest release to their BaristaMaker collection, the BaristaMaker Air, makes milk frothing at home easier than ever. With 8-in-1 versatility, this sleek and efficient milk frother can easily froth dairy and plant-based milk to make any café-style coffee drink imaginable. From cappuccinos to macchiatos, the BaristaMaker Air uses AeroSilk™ Technology to create an ultra-fine microform like your favorite coffee shop. This new launch joins DREO’s other leading coffee tools, designed to elevate your home coffee bar.

Using a patented Impeller Tip Max impeller blade, the BaristaMaker Air can cut large bubbles into a silky microform that is only 0.5 mm fine (just half the regular size). Meanwhile, the anti-burn propeller prevents overheating and ensures a rich froth without scorching your milk. The device’s multi-stage frothing program is designed to expertly control temperature, time, and speed for the smoothest possible froth. Just a few uses and you’ll wonder how you lived without this sleek and innovative milk frother.

The device features a water-based, non-stick coating that allows quick cleaning with water, preventing clumping and scorching. Plus, this milk frother’s compact and sleek design is perfect for even the tightest of kitchen coffee bar areas. The DREO BaristaMaker Air is available at select retailers and online on Amazon.

Barista tips: The art of customizing your coffee

Adjusting your cup of coffee to perfection

Free Rein Buckskin

What makes a great cup of coffee? There are dozens of ways to describe the "perfect" cup of coffee, as every coffee drinker's ideal cup can look quite different. From sweeteners and add-ins to various milks and creamers, coffee can be enjoyed in many forms. While most of us coffee drinkers know how we like to take our coffee, we often overlook how specific coffee roasts and milks impact the flavor of each cup. Ana Eoff, Free Rein Coffee Company Representative and Head Barista of the San Angelo Roastery, shares how sweeteners and add-ins can drastically change the taste of your coffee. Here's what she shared.

Klatch Coffee introduces new spring-themed blend, Songbird

A coffee blend from four different origins

Klatch Coffee Songbird

Klatch Coffee has introduced a new, limited-time-only coffee just in time for spring. The Songbird blend features coffees from four origins—Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, and Panama—highlighting the natural and washed processing methods. This spring blend was loved by Klatch Coffee customers back in 2024, and the brand is proud to bring it back for 2025. In the face of rising prices and new tariffs, Klatch Coffee has worked hard to get the 2025 edition to market at a price lower than the price in 2024.
Klatch Coffee's Songbird blend delivers the same elegant flavor notes as last year, featuring notes of honeysuckle, white cherry, and molasses, thanks to a blend of Brazil, Panama, Ethiopia, and Colombian beans.
“In 2024, customers told us they loved Songbird, but it was more expensive compared to some of our other coffees," says Mike Perry, Klatch Coffee’s Roastmaster. “It’s no secret that the combination of tariffs, weather, and increased demand continue to drive coffee prices higher worldwide, so we are really excited to deliver Songbird this Spring at a lower price than in 2024!”
In addition to the return of the Songbird blend, Klatch Coffee has also launched a second springtime limited-edition coffee called Peru Geisha. Peru Geisha is delivered in special packaging, containing 310 grams of premium coffee (almost double the amount of coffee compared to other typical Geisha packaging) in a distinctive, re-usable drawcord bag. This coffee highlights the delicate, bright, and clean citrus flavors of high-altitude Geisha grown in the hamlet of Gracias a Dios, District of Lonya Grande in the department of Amazonas, Peru.

Starbucks is all about cherry cream cold foam on its new “not-so-secret” menu

Will you try the new cherry cold foam coffee trend?

Starbucks Iced Mocha with Cherry Cream Cold Foam

At first, cherry cream cold foam with coffee sounds like an interesting flavor combination. Yet, Starbucks believes cherry is trending in 2025 and says you should try it too. On Instagram, Starbucks released a new way for customers to order a Starbucks Iced Mocha with Cherry Cold Foam. You won't find this specialty coffee advertised on Starbucks menus or signs, as it's part of what Starbucks calls its "not-so-secret" menu.

To order a Starbucks Iced Mocha with Cherry Cold Foam, you'll start by ordering an Iced Caffè Mocha without whipped cream. Instead, swap the whipped cream for Cherry Cold Foam with a Cherry Crunch Sweet Topping. The result: A dreamy Iced Mocha with Cherry Cold Foam and Cherry Crunch Topping features Starbucks' full-bodied espresso combined with decadent mocha sauce, milk, and ice, topped with cherry cream cold foam and cherry crunch topping.
If the Iced Mocha with Cherry Cream Cold Foam doesn't sound appealing (or if crunch on your coffee doesn't sound up your alley), Starbucks also suggests a few other ways coffee drinkers can give the "cherry coffee" trend a chance. Some other ways to order cherry cold foam in your Starbucks drink order include:
