Wake Up and Smell the Coffee

Coffee makes the world go ‘round. Where would all the students, parents, and workers of the world be if it weren’t for that sweet, sweet jolt of caffeine? Probably still in bed, that’s where. At Try My Nuts, we’re big fans of coffee. Specifically, we love coffee gifts. So if you’re looking for coffee gifts for yourself or for someone else who needs to wake up and smell the coffee, then check out Try My Nuts. Or in this case, you can Try My Coffee instead.

Get Out of Bed

Whether it’s a gift for yourself or a loved one, coffee makes a great gift for people who just need to get out of bed. For those who need a serious caffeine boost, we recommend the Wake the F Up Coffee. It’s an incredibly strong brew for all of your high-energy occasions. Have a serious study session coming up? What about a graveyard shift? This coffee will help you get the job done.

The Perfect Pair

You know what snack pairs perfectly with a nice cup of coffee? Nuts. While we love a good spicy nut, the best nut to pair with your coffee is something lightly sweet and mild. Cashews make a great choice, especially since we have so many different types. Add these versatile nuts to your gift basket, and you’ll give the gift of the perfect snack and drink combo.

Have Your Beans and Eat Them Too

Coffee gifts don’t always have to be coffee. Of course, we love coffee, but you want to know what else we love? Chocolate covered espresso beans, that’s what. If you go with this coffee gift basket, you’ll get dark chocolate espresso beans to put some pep in your step. You’ll also get an awesome coffee mug, because who doesn’t love a nice coffee mug?

Coffee Pods

What about the coffee pod user in your life? Don’t worry, we won’t leave them out of all the fun. They have to have a good sense of humor, though. Otherwise, they may not appreciate a good Kick in the Hazelnuts coffee pod. Which is too bad, really. Because it’s tasty coffee, and they’re missing out. For the non-grumpy people who like coffee pods, though, you can go nuts.

Coffee Gifts

Not Your Mama's Snack Attack

Where do you put those gifts you don’t want? Come on, admit it - you’ve got a regifting closet or shelf stuffed with vases, shower and bath sets, loofahs, spoon holders, and scarves and hats you don’t like. And just like anything else that misbehaves, gifts do too - that’s why we put them in time out until we can figure out what to do with them. Consider the ugly sweaters you’ll wear - over your dead body. We all have well-intentioned loved ones and office workers who wouldn’t leave us out for the world come holiday time. The problem is, how well do they know us? How could they possibly pick out something special? And for that matter, how can we pick out something for someone we hardly know? We can’t - that’s the problem... which brings us to the solution. Let’s face it: not everyone shares our tastes and vice versa. What to do? Send food! Comfort food! Snacks.

They can take on almost any flavor you want to throw their way, and sometimes it’s best to keep it simple with some salt. They Can Be Sweet Not feeling salty? Would you prefer sweetness instead?
