Enjoying your favorite cup of fall coffee does not have to be expensive and making those at home recipes is simple! Embrace the taste of the season from home. Make all your fall favs at home this season with those fall coffee recipes!
Fall Coffee on a Budget
It’s here!! The seasonal fall drinks are being advertised everywhere. Whether you are a pumpkin spice fan or not you have to admit some of these autumn flavors are delicious! Apple pie, maple cinnamon, brown sugar….
As a homemaker I have found the joy of the seasons is to embrace them. Whether that is seasons of life or the actual seasons. Fall is one of my favorite seasons. However, it means my least favorite- winter, is quickly on the way! (I’m working on this!)
One way I choose to focus on the positive is to embrace the fall season heart, mind, and tastebuds.
But so do the marketing strategies and this homemaker is not falling (pun intended!) for it again! Not this year. I am making the choice to enjoy all the tastes of fall from my own home. You can too with these tested, tried, and proven at home recipes!
Healthier Coffee
Another reason I am making my coffee at home this year is the fact that I can choose my ingredients. The fact we are paying $6 for a coffee filled with sugar, corn syrup, and other bad for you ingredients hurts more than my wallet!
I’m no health nut. I definitely enjoy some sugar now and then. However, because health is one of my priorities this year I find it hard to sacrifice the money and my values.
I enjoy being in control of the ingredients I am adding to my coffee. Here’s a list of healthier options when it comes to your at home coffee…
- Homemade simple syrup made with honey or cane sugar
- Brown coconut sugar
- Homemade whipped topping
- Homemade cold foam
- Organic, mold free coffee beans
- Using maple syrup instead of simple syrup

My Favorite Coffee Company This Fall
This fall (and every season!) my favorite coffee company is Seven Weeks! Seven Weeks is a pro-life coffee company that supports my values by donating 10% of every sale towards pro-life causes. These causes provide ultrasounds to mothers considering abortion, medical and financial, assistance,and more!
The best part- you are getting quality organic, mold free coffee that is directly traded from trusted farmers.
Seven Week’s coffee has me absolutely hooked on their smooth, delicious blends. We ran out of our Seven Weeks coffee once and now I can taste the difference in regular store brands and the smoothness of their delicious coffee. You can choose between multiple blends of whole beans, grounds, and pods!
I’m always going to be a coffee drinker so why not drink coffee that supports what I believe in? If you are pro-life and want a way to support causes you can be proud of- drink Seven Weeks and save lives. Give them a try- use my link and get 10% off your order!
Tips for Making Fall Coffee at Home
Making fall coffee at home is simple. You do not need any special equipment or expensive ingredients to achieve the same results as a main coffee chain. Here are some tips for how to get a $6 coffee at home for a fraction of the price….
1. Use a quality blend of coffee.
One difference between regular at home coffee and the store-bought is that most of the stores are brewing a high quality blend of coffee. This does not mean you have to spend a fortune to get a good blend of coffee but quality matters if you want to achieve good results at home. My friend over at Seven Weeks have the smoothest coffee I have ever tasted. Each blend I have tried is bursting with flavor!
2. Experiment with coffee making methods.
If you are expecting similar results as a coffee shop but you use an old filter and pot style coffee maker you probably are not going to get them. It is possible, however, the flavor will be lacking and very disappointing. Try these methods instead…
- French press
- Espresso
- Cold brew
These are all my favorite methods of brewing at home coffee that taste like it was bought at Starbucks!
3. Find your flavors!
My tastebuds are not your tastebuds. When you make coffee at home you are your own barista! Make it the way you like it and measure with your heart, not your spoon.
