Sometimes I fall asleep excited for my morning cup of coffee when I wake up. That’s how much I love coffee. Each morning I do two things. First, I meditate and second, I take the time to brew and enjoy a great cup of coffee. For me, those two things are essential to set up for a great day. I thought it would be fun to share with you my process for the perfect cup of coffee.

I’ll link a few of the items that I use to create my morning coffee routine.

• OXO BREW Conical Burr Coffee Grinder with Integrated Scale $224.95

  I firmly believe in ordering whole coffee beans and grinding them fresh each morning. The aroma and flavor is fresher and stronger. The Oxo coffee grinder that I use is great because it allows you to set the grams per cup that you prefer, the type of grind, and of course how many cups you’re grinding for.

• Bodum Vacuum Coffee Brewer: $72.30

  I’ve shared this item with you before. I happened upon it at Williams Sonoma and thought that the design was chic and the concept was cool. I really love the smooth brew that the Bodum coffee brewer creates and of course it’s a great visual in the morning to watch the vacuum brewing process.

• Zwilling Sorrento Plus Double Wall Glass Coffee Mug Set: $95.95 (set of 8)

• Sey Coffee: Subscribe

  During the winter break I wandered into a little shop in Sag Harbor that was serving Sey coffee by the cup. I fell in love immediately and when I got home signed up for a monthly subscription. Their coffees are packed full of flavor and curated from around the world. Recently, I ordered a few other coffee subscriptions and I’ll share with you any great finds.

• Oat Milk: (32 oz pack of 6): $21.48

  I didn’t include this in the video but I usually drink my coffee with a little splash of unsweetened oat milk. It gives a nice creamy taste without overbearing the coffee.
