For my birthday I treated myself to my dream coffee maker. For me, it was one of those close-your-eyes order purchases, because this is an investment type purchase. I personally love enjoying lattes while out with my hubby or friends and I especially love making them at home!
There’s an art form to making a really good latte and of course making latte art! I’m a Nespresso girl, I love the ease of using coffee pods that make incredible coffee, lattes, and espresso to name a few. I also love that the Nespresso pods are recyclable! I always add the Nespresso recycling bag to my pod orders.
My previous Nespresso U (a gift from a good friend for ages, it recently moved to my backyard cottage), and I was ready for Nespresso with more bells and whistles and the ability to stream milk with a wand. I don’t drink dairy, I’m lactose intolerant, and do my best to avoid adding extra milk products to my diet. For that reason, I switched to Almond milk and then finally landed on oat milk, it just works better with my system. I love the following Barista blend oat milk: Oatly Oatmilk Barista, Califia Farms Oatmilk Barista, and Good & Gather Oatmilk Barista (this one is a new fav at a really good price!)
The Nespresso Creatista is a dream, the machine is beautiful and easy to use! Now that I’ve had it for almost two years, I thought I’d give a review. The water tank holds lots of water and takes a little to get used to in terms of placing it back on the machine for a refill.

Beautiful and easy to make lattes, flat whites, cappuccinos, espresso and more and steams milk! Nespresso Creatista
I love being able to make a variety of drinks, with the touch of a button. Cleaning the steam wand is also easy, I wipe it after each use and the machine notifies me and walks me through the process of cleaning the wand. The pods are very easy to place inside and they drop down in a hidden compartment, which is easy to clean.
My coffee station set up in my kitchen just feels good, I recently added a beautiful acacia wood cutting board to bring some warmth into my kitchen and help define my coffee station. I’m so in love with my coffee station! Below are a few of my favorite coffee must-haves!
Gold Tea Spoons

Peet’s Nespresso Pods
I’m in love the Medium roast Peet’s Nespresso pods! They’re so good and pair with milk.
