Coffee is an international beverage prepared from roasted coffee beans. These coffee beans are crushed into a powder form and then mixed with synthetics to give it a better taste. The drink as it is made today originated from Yemen. It was used by saints to stay awake for their religious rituals. The coffee plant was introduced by East African traders in the early 15th century.
This day was made to bring together all the coffee lovers around the globe to cherish together the goodness of this beverage. Every year thousands of farmers, roasters, coffee shop owners, and other people work day and night to produce the best coffee around the world.
