Coffee flavors get crafty

摘要

Since the time coffee was introduced to north america during the Colonial period, it has continued to climb in popularity, according to the National Coffee Association. Last year, the New York-based association found that 61 percent of Americans drink coffee every day. This popularity has extended from coffee beans and ground coffees to ready-to-drink coffees, single-cup coffees, and even coffee blended into other beverage categories, like energy drinks, notes Kevin L. Goodner, product manager of extracts and essences at Synergy Flavors LLC, Hamilton, Ohio.
