If you want to add a little zest to your morning coffee, I have the perfect coffee recipe for you. This delicious orange coffee has real orange zest! Enjoy!
Orange Coffee Recipe
I like coffee. In fact, I am not sure I could survive a day without it. I like to mix it up with my different fun flavored creamers for different tastes. So, when Seattle’s Best Coffee mailed me the goodies to make Orange Coffee, I was pretty intrigued. Yes, I said ORANGE and Coffee. It doesn’t turn orange, don’t worry 😉 But it does give it a tasteful twist on your favorite brew. I strongly recommend trying a slice of my Orange & Banana Bundt Cake to go with it, it’s a match made in heaven!
Making it is easy too, you just need a orange for orange zest and a Seattle’s Best Breakfast Blend K-Cup or Ground Coffee. Or whatever coffee you happen to have on hand right now.
If you are doing a K-Cup, you will put the zest in a small metal strainer and put it over your coffee cup. Hit brew and that’s it!
Now, here’s the Coffee Brewed With Orange Zest recipe, make sure to Print It and Pin It so that you can make it again and again.

I was really amazed how that little bit of orange zest could add so much flavor to my coffee! I did add cream and sugar to it before I enjoyed it. I can’t do black coffee.
And enjoy it I did 🙂

Oh, that would add a little boost to your coffee! It sounds pretty tasty!
I don’t like coffee but it’d try that
I don’t know what I think. I rarely drink coffee. When I think of orange, I think it would be good in tea. So, why not coffee too,
This recipe got my attention! Orange coffee?! I love coffee and enjoy trying various blends, but this is the first time I’ve heard of using orange zest. Now I want to try it in my regular coffeemaker.
It adds a great flavor! Be sure to let me know what you think when you try it 🙂
This is surely a different type of coffee! I love it! I don’t have any oranges or I’d try it tomorrow! I have lemons but that’s not quite the same! This really sounds good! I’m going to give it a try when I can get some oranges! Thanks so much for sharing the delicious recipe on Orange Coffee Recipe #TasteTheBest with all of us! I honestly do appreciate it! Thanks again! Michele 🙂
You’re welcome! Let me know if you try it! And I am with you, I am not sure I would do it with lemons…. 😉
