About Instant coffee

Instant coffee is a quick and convenient beverage made by brewing ground coffee beans, then freeze-drying or spray-drying the liquid to create soluble granules or powder. Originating from global coffee-producing regions, it gained popularity in the early 20th century due to its ease of preparation and long shelf life. Typically containing only coffee extracts, some brands may add ingredients like sugar, creamers, or artificial flavors. Instant coffee is low in calories, contains antioxidants, and provides caffeine, which can support alertness and focus. However, its caffeine content may vary, and excessive consumption could cause jitters or disrupt sleep. Compared to freshly brewed coffee, it may have slightly fewer antioxidants due to processing. Popular worldwide, instant coffee is an affordable and adaptable option for a quick boost, though it's best consumed in moderation as part of a balanced diet.
