Venezuela Contest | Week 1 | The coffee | Coffee Story

Hello Venezuela!

This is my first time in Venezuelans Steem. And I decided to join this very first contest of the community. I was attracted to the topic because it is some thing different. Also I think I can add some something different to your knowledge about the usage of coffee in my country Sri Lanka. As well I can learn about coffee culture of Venezuela.

We Also Grow Coffee, but We Like Tea!

Here in Sri Lanka, we also cultivate coffee for a certain extend. Not as western countries, our coffee consumption is lower than the consumption of tea. In many occasions we use tea instead of coffee. The probabilstill very low for a situation when a person ask for a coffee than requesting tea.

But still we usestille in daily life. In my house, coffee consumption is rare.

I choose coffee,

• If I feel sleepy when during studies
• If it is raining and if it is cold
• If I fedup with drinking tea

There are some famouse coffee shop networks like Java Lounge, Coffee Bean and Barista, where we can purchase expensive high quality coffee. (I have never beign yet)

Domestic Consumption

I consume it as coffee or milk coffee. Let me tell you how we make coffee here. Nothing special, we boil water seperately, mix a spoon of coffee and enough sugar together and pour water into it and mix.

When preparing milk coffee, I add a small piece of Cinnamon or Cardomom. It will enhance the taste and aroma of the coffee. Sometimes I use ice cubes to make the coffee cool.

Also we can purchase pre made cold coffee packets from grossaries. In Sri Lanka, we don't have a "Coffee Culture". But we use coffee, specially nescafee to get rid of tiredness.
