It’s not news how the culture of Pakistan has been prone to westernization over the past couple of decades. Information spreads like wildfire, and apparently so does culture in today’s world.
But in the globalized world of today, all we need to worry about are keeping our morals and ethics. As for the rest, I’d say ‘let the coffee pour!’ Some like tea, some like coffee. For both, it serves the same purpose. A wake-up drink for some, and a casual conversation holder for others, coffee has taken Pakistan by a storm. Before being introduced as a luxury item by ‘Gloria Jeans’, coffee used to be the go-to drink when you visited Murree Mall Road. Those hot air pipes brewing and bringing out the essence of coffee in that mix, topped with some Ovaltine chocolate powder, the Murree Mall Road coffee experience was something for everyone. From couples holding hands, to families roaming around, and oldies taking a slow stroll as they sipped away on their coffee.
Recently a trend became viral, calling out the very coffee that we’ve seen all our lives, as ‘Dalgona Coffee’. Just a fancy name for ‘Phenti hwi Coffee’. Regardless of how people threw that fancy term around, ‘phenti hwi coffee’ has been our go-to coffee for late winter nights and evening rains.
As time went by, and Pakistanis started experimenting with their own versions of Dalgona Coffee to black coffee, numerous brands ushered in. Gloria being the pioneer, quickly followed suit by Second Cup, Coffee Planet, and Coffee Bean and Tealeaf. Each brings its own distinct taste to your coffee cup, each one chanting the same ‘let the coffee pour!’.
Every company came in with its own mission. Coffee Planet bringing an Arabica version of coffee, Gloria Sources its own beans and produces its own blends and Second Cup went on from selling just coffee beans to now promising sustainability. Every company(there are several more though) brings us a variety of coffees

One thing remained constant, the types of coffee they offer. To the plain sight, its cold and hot, further divided into different types which are categorized by the
strength of coffee to milk ratio. As it is though, all of these are starting to become simple. It seems the Pakistani people want more options for their coffee. Simple is just not cool enough.
Walks into, the coffee maker. People who could afford it started buying their hundred thousand rupees (and more) coffee brewers at home. Making ASMR videos of how such fresh coffee is available in the comfort of their very homes. They come with pods of different flavors which one can have according to their mood. A variety of hot and cold flavors is now available in your home. What more could you want, right?

Well wrong. As much as this is appealing, you’ll never be able to replace coffee as a social drink. Let’s grab a cup of joe, is what you say to each other when you’re in a mood to not only enjoy the drink but the social gathering coupled with the ambiance that the brand gives you. We’re getting our pet flavors, we’re getting our atmosphere and the social gatherings that come along with it, but there’s still something missing, isn’t it? Coffee regulars would agree. One thing missing in Pakistan is chains like Starbucks. Which let you make your own unique blend of coffee, which goes according to your pallet. You might be happy with a caramel latte at your regular coffee house, but it’s a whole other thing to make a unique blend that you can call your own. That’s supposed to be your actual, ‘regular’, because it’s yours.
Until we see a chain like this emerge in our country, we’ll pass time with our Dalgona Coffees and our Brewed Caramel Lattes. But every coffee lover is waiting anxiously, to get a change to make their coffee, then own unique drink.

We’ve been taking our coffees for granted

 

Coffee has been on both, the good and bad pages of research papers and articles. This is something which is part of our daily consumption, and it is only because of those whatever effects are mentioned in it are more definite to happen. On the other hand, merits of some items e.g nuts have positively said to affect the brain and increase memory. But unless you include a substance in your daily diet, any effects will not take place. One simply shouldn’t expect to have had a specific item for a brief period of time and expect magnanimous changes.

Coffee, however, is part of millions of people’s daily diet. For some, a power booster for the morning, for some a mid-day drink, and others enjoy a cup of coffee socially just as a tasteful beverage.

 

Energy Booster

The most popular thing coffee is known for, is the effect it has on our performance. The reason people drink it first thing in the morning is to get themselves going. Us humans today have more on our plate than we can to our capacity uphold, and coffee helps us get that performance enhancement in a very natural way. (1)

 

Weight Loss

Caffeine contains magnesium and potassium, which assists the human body with utilizing insulin, directing glucose levels, and lowering your hankering for sweets and tidbits (2) This is the first stage that you must take care of for weight loss. Next comes burning fat.

Caffeine helps fat cells break down body fat and use it as fuel for training. Now this combination of it being a performance enhancer, then helping with sweet cravings, and at the end of it all also helping you lose fat, is something everyone needs.

 

Brain Health

Although studies have turned up mixed results, some research suggests that coffee may help protect against certain neurodegenerative disorders, including Alzheimer’s disease and Parkinson’s disease. 11 observational studies found that the more coffee people consumed, the lower their risk of Alzheimer’s disease (3)

 

Mental Health

Everyone’s juggling so many things on a day-to-day basis, and it does take a toll on your mental health. The reason for the increase in mental health problems is greatly linked to the level of anxiety which has increased in humans because of the rapid development because of life has become so fast. According to one review of seven studies, each cup of coffee people consumed per day was linked to an 8% lower risk of depression (4)

 

Mortality

In a large cohort of more than 200,000 participants followed for up to 30 years, an association was found between drinking moderate amounts of coffee and a lower risk of early death. Compared with non-drinkers, those who drank 3-5 cups of coffee daily were 15% less likely to die early from all causes, including cardiovascular disease, suicide, and Parkinson’s disease. (5)

 

Bottom line

Coffee is a popular beverage that researchers have studied extensively for its many health benefits, although keep in mind that some people may need to limit their intake, including people who are pregnant or breastfeeding, children and adolescents, and people with certain health conditions. (6)

Still, drinking coffee in moderation — about three to four cups per day — has been associated with several health benefits and is generally considered safe for most adults.
