I spend a lot of time on the witch-ier parts of social media, and in particular I see a lot of post about tea. Different blends and mixes for different spells, companies like Blackthorn Hoodoo Blends and The Witchwood Teahouse that specialize in teas for different magical workings. For the most part I understand the attraction to tea. It's easy to mix in different herbs for different meanings, and it can feel a lot like crafting a potion in your tea cup. Tea leaves have been used for medicine, magic and divination for centuries. However, what about coffee?
For me, I'm much more likely to reach for a hot cup of coffee than tea. I love making coffee every morning in my Mister Coffee pot and listening to the familiar bubble of coffee. Coffee is it's own kind of potion making, an alchemy that combines beans, heat, and time. So naturally, I began to think about the magical uses of coffee. What would it be good for? Do other people use coffee for magic?
