Sounds cliche, I know, but I have been on a transformative path, and I had to change a lot of habits. The biggest; my diet. I have switched over to a vegan diet, minimal sugar and no alcohol. You know me, I love to bake, I love to make things loaded with all the things I can no longer have&#8230; and sometimes I still do make them (I just don&#8217;t eat them), but for a while I have been wanting to change my voice; living a plant based active life.<\/p>\n<p>I apreciate all of my readers so much, and this blog isn&#8217;t going anywhere.. it might just change into something else. I have a lot of ideas, but this year has been busy, to say the least.<\/p>\n<p>Anyways, I dislike the prolonged introductions, let&#8217;s get into the recipe, and the coffee!<!--more--><\/p>\n<p>Now, something else that had to change, was the amount of coffee I drink. Coffee was doing more harm than good. It makes my anxeity skyrocket, I wasn&#8217;t sleeping, so it was also something I had to eliminate from my diet. I will limit myself to one coffee drink a day, before noon only. This has helped immensely.. I can live without alcohol. I can live without sugar. I can NOT live without coffee. Well, I probably could, but I do not want to. Especially when you have a coffee like this; Starbucks passport series West Java.<\/p>\n<p>You might be having a bit of deja vu with this coffee. If it seems familiar, that&#8217;s because it was a component in the 2019 Thanksgiving blend. The partners in the cupping room loved this coffee so much, they brought it back as part of the passport series. West Java is a medium roast, semi-washed coffee. Starbucks usually sources washed coffees from the east side of the island of Java, however, this coffee mirrors \u00a0the wet-hulled process from neighboring Sumatra and Sulawesi to unlock previously hidden layers of flavor and complexity.<\/p>\n<hr \/>\n<p><span style=\"color: #008000;\">#coffeemasterchallenge<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Compare Starbucks Passport series West Java with our Anniversary Blend.
