The Ultimate Gift Guide for Coffee Enthusiasts

Everything needed to make (and enjoy) barista-style drinks at home—from an automatic espresso machine to delicious syrups and artistic toppings. 

The best gifts show recipients just how well you know them, and are attentive to what they love. When gifting a coffee lover, coffee-themed goodies are the way to go. Luckily, there are tons of coffee-centric items available at various price points, from beans to machines. Spoil your giftee (or yourself!) with an all-in-one machine like Philips LatteGo, or give them accessories to elevate every cup. Read on for thoughtful picks they’ll appreciate a latte.

Philips LatteGo

Delicious coffee and espresso drinks are just a push of a button away with the Philips LatteGo. The espresso machine has an expansive library of up to 20 hot and iced drinks—including smooth lattes, black coffee, and refreshing iced coffees—ready to brew in seconds thanks to QuickStart technology. The LatteGo milk system creates rich and freshly steamed milk from regular and plant-based milk options. Without a complicated cleaning routine, the Philips LatteGo is the fastest-to-clean milk system and always ready for the next cup without any hassle. The machine has a built-in grinder with multiple settings, from fine to coarse, for extracting the perfect crema. Silent Brew technology makes loud brewing a thing of the past, so there’s no need to wake the whole house or interrupt a meeting for your coffee fix.

Coffee Mugs & Espresso Cups

One can never have too many mugs if they’re passionate about coffee. Choose a mug with an inspirational or not-so-serious quote, or a mug inspired by a beloved travel destination. For something more sentimental, customize a mug with a special message or photo. Espresso cups, sometimes forgotten about in a typical cup cabinet, are known for their small size and make for adorable pops of personality or color. 

Specialty Coffee Beans

Beans can be a fun gift idea too! Consider fresh beans from a local roaster, a meaningful unique blend from your latest international vacation, or a restock of a classic go-to for their Philips LatteGo. Another idea is to sign them up for a coffee subscription program that delivers new beans every month or so.

Flavored Syrups

Coffee aficionados who like to add a hint of flavor to their daily brew (or have a sweet tooth) will be thrilled to receive a few bottles of coffee syrup. For an extra-thoughtful touch, you can match the syrups to the season or their favorite flavor notes. During spring and summer, opt for lighter fruity and botanical flavors like raspberry or lavender. For the holidays, peppermint, gingerbread, and vanilla are classic favorites. 

Ice Cube Trays

Iced coffee is growing in popularity. Delight your loved one with some ice cube trays to help bring iced coffee home! They can avoid watering down their iced coffee with coffee ice cubes made by simply pouring coffee into the molds. Once the cubes are frozen, they’re ready to go.

Glass Straws

Another must-have for fans of iced coffee? Reusable glass straws. Get a simple clear set or a multi-color variety pack for pops of color. Cute wavy options or a pack featuring tiny accents offer even more opportunities to customize the coffee experience.

Latte Toppings 

An assortment of toppings is essential for making truly brew-tiful coffee creations with Philips LatteGo. Cinnamon, pumpkin spice, and chocolate curls are traditional finishing touches, but you can’t go wrong with more out-of-the-box ideas (think flower sprinkles, crumbled cookies, and chocolate-covered coffee beans) either.

Whether you’re eyeing your first espresso machine, looking to upgrade, or surprising a loved one, Philips LatteGo makes it easy to enjoy café-quality coffee at home.
