When it comes to coffee, we are all about routine. The ritual of waking up, making yourself a cup, and getting that pick-me-up is a compelling habit that yields real benefits (energy). For me, it’s not really something I’m interested in changing. But what if there were a way to secretly make it a bit of a healthier habit? I’m all for that – and Nespresso has the perfect offer, only for a limited time, to tie in.

The coffee habit I keep seeing everywhere

Lately, I keep hearing about supplements and how people are incorporating them into their already established routines. One hack keeps coming up, and that’s adding them to coffee first thing in the morning, specifically collagen. Powders stirred into iced Americanos, i.e. wellness folded into something people already do every morning.

Why I can get behind it

Unlike wellness rituals that require new equipment or more time, this one doesn’t ask much. You make your coffee, you add something to it, you move on with your day. But I suppose there is a line with this, if the coffee doesn’t taste good, the routine won’t last.

To me, the best coffee has always been a home-brewed Nespresso. Going out for coffee is great on occasion, but at the end of the day, it’s pricey and often doesn’t hit the spot like my coffee at home does. I grew up with Nespresso, it’s familiar and always the most reliable coffee at home, but that also makes it easy to build on, whether you’re drinking your coffee black, milky or iced.

Nespresso is the one coffee brand we consistently come back to at The Handbook. It delivers barista-quality coffee at home, without the fuss and the range of flavours means there’s genuinely something for everyone.

The offer to use

Right now, Nespresso is running an offer that feels actually useful when it comes to being realistic with building good habits, whether it be adding Collagen to your routine or saving money on making coffee at home. When you buy any Nespresso coffee machine, you get 50 free Nespresso pods (that’s 50 free coffees) and a complimentary tub of Vital Proteins collagen. That’s enough to properly try the routine everyone’s raving about without committing beyond a coffee that you know is already good. We’ve seen plenty of wellness trends come and go. The ones that last tend to start with something actually enjoyable.

Using my Nespresso coffee machine is part of my morning ritual! Beyond having my firm favourites, I love that there are so many unique flavours on offer to try and enjoy switching it up.

From the sleek machines to the quality of the coffee itself, Nespresso makes everyday coffee feel like a small luxury

Wellness doesn’t need to be complicated. The best routines are usually the simplest ones — the ones that fit around real life, not the other way round. This is one of those moments where the timing, the habit and the offer all line up.
