If you've ever felt like the coffee you make at home doesn't compare to your favorite store-bought specialty drinks, you're not alone. Fed up with the subpar coffee she'd make when trying to break the expensive habit of going to a coffee shop every morning, content creator Katerina Diaz began sharing videos online documenting her journey to perfecting her daily brew. She has since become an at-home coffee expert, and she's here to teach you how to make your own coffee exactly the way you like it.

Making coffee yourself is easier on your wallet, better for the planet, and with the right guidance, much more satisfying than opting for store-bought drinks. The world of coffee may seem intimidating, but The Coffee Shop Cookbook begins with an approachable primer on coffee basics, breaking down coffee lingo, brewing methods, shopping for beans, and buying equipment before providing 60 recipes for delicious and doable drinks and syrups. You don't need to shell out hundreds of dollars on a fancy espresso machine to use this book--it meets you where you are, helping you make the most of the equipment you already have. You'll learn how to make a perfect Honey Lavender Latte or Brown Sugar Oat Milk Shaken Espresso, recreate seasonal favorites like a Pumpkin Cream Cold Brew and Peppermint Mocha, and treat yourself to blended drinks like a Salted Caramel Frappe. All of the syrups and sauces can be made ahead and stored in the fridge, making it easy to enjoy cafe-quality drinks in minutes.

Whether you're sick of feeling dependent on coffee chains or simply want to level up your coffee game, The Coffee Shop Cookbook will give you the tools you need enjoy a perfectly personalized cup every single day. After just a few lessons from Kat, you'll be making expert-level coffee for a fraction of the cost in no time.
