Good cold, great warm — Espresso across seasons

I drink Espresso year-round but the experience changes significantly with the seasons. In summer prepared as an afternoon ritual over ice it's refreshing and the calm alertness is immediate. In winter served warm the brewing time becomes more prominent and the comfort factor is high.

Versatility is underrated in a drink. The fact that Espresso works across contexts — morning, afternoon, social, solo — means it earns its place in any regular rotation. Gets better the more you learn about it.
