Brewing and serving questions

How do you brew pistachio coffee?

The supplied product record does not include a preparation method. Because it is a paste rather than ground coffee, you should not assume it brews exactly like regular coffee. A cautious starting point is to treat it as a paste-based drink: stir the paste well, then whisk a spoonful into hot water or hot milk until it disperses. Adjust the amount to your taste. For a definitive method, follow the instructions on the pack if provided, or ask the seller.

Why is there oil on top of the paste?

The natural oil layer is part of the product’s normal appearance. The record notes it comes as a smooth paste with a natural oil layer on the surface. Stirring before use helps redistribute it.

Can I drink it if I avoid caffeine?
