Let’s be honest: the best holiday bonding happens over food and drinks. And even if you have tried & true holiday favorites, there’s always an opportunity to introduce something new—especially when it comes to coffee. This season, plan ahead with our coffee guide to the best Tag pairings for all of your get-togethers.

For a holiday brunch

Bottle Rocket Espresso Blend

Brunch is best when everyone’s their liveliest self, and Bottle Rocket can help with that. Our signature espresso blend packs a punch of both flavor and caffeine. It’s ideal for cappuccino, cold brew and even traditional brewed coffee.

For holiday dinner parties

Hopscotch Blend

Stick with us on this analogy, okay? If our coffees were Santa’s reindeer, Hopscotch would be Rudolph—the versatile team player that’s ready for anything and makes the experience complete. Serve Hopscotch with your holiday dinner this year and you’ll find that this well-balanced blend goes great with just about anything you serve, whether you’re making the traditional turkey and stuffing or something more casual. 

For casual gatherings

Tireswing Blend

Gatherings like friendsgiving offer the chance to get a little more adventurous (ugly sweaters, anyone?), and our Tireswing blend is the perfect party guest. With notes of pink lemonade and candied orange, you can give friends a flavor experience they’re likely never had before and maybe create a new coffee tradition. 

For dessert time 

Milk & Cookies Holiday Blend

With notes of brownies and mulling spices, our limited-time Milk & Cookies blend feels like the holiday season in a cup. Your guests will adore it with cookies, pie, cake or any kind of sweets. Not hosting this year? Bring some Milk & Cookies beans (or pods) as a thoughtful gift for the host. All of our pods are specially formulated to provide the best pod coffee you’ve ever had.

For Christmas dinner

Campfire Blend

Campfire offers a bold & intense taste that pairs well with traditional Christmas dishes. Plus, because it was designed as a gateway coffee for Starbucks drinkers, you’re likely to win over some friends or family members as you introduce them to more complex, thoughtfully roasted coffee.

For late-night game time

Daydream Decaf

One of our favorite holiday traditions is late-night game time with the grandparents, siblings, and nieces & nephews: like a classic card game with unique “house rules” or a game of Monopoly that goes until after midnight. For those after-dinner showdowns, brew up some Daydream Decaf for rich flavor without the caffeine. 

For eating leftovers by yourself

Mexico Single Origin

There’s no shame in it, okay? You could even argue that grazing over some leftovers is just as iconic as the holiday dinner itself. As you take a few quiet moments away from the holiday chaos, pour a cup of coffee (like our Mexico Single Origin) and enjoy a mini-escape. Sourced from Mexico’s Puebla region, this coffee hits the spot with notes of cocoa and graham cracker. 

Whatever you’re celebrating this holiday season, there’s a Tag coffee to match the moment. Sip well, savor deeply, and enjoy a season full of good food, great company, and exceptional coffee.
