At Catholic Coffee, we believe every cup is an invitation to pause, reflect, and enjoy a moment of grace. Whether you’re sipping something simple or stirring up something bold, our saint-inspired beans are the perfect foundation for a variety of coffee drinks.
This guide will walk you through five major drink categories—from espresso to coffee cocktails—so you can explore the full range of what your Catholic Coffee can become.
Espresso: The Heart of Coffee
Espresso is where it all begins. It’s a concentrated shot of coffee brewed under high pressure, offering a bold, rich flavor and a thick, velvety crema on top. A great espresso captures the essence of the bean—its body, aroma, and intensity—in just 25–30 seconds.
Whether you’re drinking it solo or using it as the base for another drink, learning to pull a perfect shot is a game-changer.

Milk-Based Espresso Drinks: Creamy, Comforting, Classic
From cappuccinos to lattes and macchiatos, milk-based espresso drinks bring together the depth of espresso and the softness of steamed milk. These drinks are ideal for anyone who loves a smooth, mellow cup without sacrificing flavor.
Steamed milk, microfoam, and proper ratios all play a role in creating café-quality drinks at home.

Cold & Iced Coffees: Refreshing and Bold
Perfect for warm days or afternoon pick-me-ups, cold and iced coffees come in many forms—iced pour-over, cold brew, flash chill, and even iced espresso. These drinks bring out the brighter, fruitier notes of coffee and are a great way to experiment with different beans and methods.

Dessert Coffees: Sweet Moments of Indulgence
Sometimes, coffee is more than a drink—it’s dessert. From affogatos to mocha-inspired treats, dessert coffees add whipped cream, syrups, chocolate, and creative garnishes to create something comforting and fun. They’re perfect for weekends, holidays, or as a little reward at the end of the day.
