If you're one of those people who can't imagine summer without a good iced coffee, cold brew is here to stay. And I say that from experience — since discovering it, I've never made iced coffee the same way again. It's smooth, aromatic, less acidic than traditional coffee and has a depth of flavour that simply can't be achieved any other way.

For years, sparkling water was a drink mainly associated with restaurants or with people looking for an alternative to regular still water. I remember being very surprised almost 20 years ago when I saw how my German friends would make carbonated water at home as a completely normal part of everyday life. In Germany, it is something entirely commonplace — almost as common as having a coffee machine. In Spain, on the other hand, it was something rarely seen in households.
