Finding the perfect gift for mom can be challenging, but if she’s a coffee lover, then you’re in luck. Coffee gifts are a great way to show your appreciation and love for her.
Whether she enjoys a strong espresso or a smooth latte, there are many great coffee gifts for moms who love the beverage.
So if you are on the hunt for a gift for your coffee-loving mom, then look no further because I bet you will find something on this list your mom would love!
And, no matter what, she will appreciate the thought and effort you put into finding the perfect gift for her.
Understanding Mom’s Coffee Preferences
Moms enjoy coffee differently. Some only like it hot, while others prefer iced. Some want cream or syrups in it, others prefer a regular black cup of coffee.
No matter how the mom you are shopping for enjoys coffee, it’s important that you understand how she enjoys her coffee so you can get a gift specifically for her.
What Type of Coffee Does Mom Prefer?
When it comes to coffee, there are many different types to choose from, but the most common are typically arabica and robusta.
But, to understand your mom’s coffee preferences, it’s important to ask her what type of coffee she enjoys.
This will give you a better idea of what to look for when shopping for coffee gifts for mom.
What’s Her Preferred Brewing Method?
The brewing method can also have a big impact on the taste of coffee.
To find the perfect coffee gift for mom, it’s important to know what brewing method she prefers. This will help you choose not just the correct type of coffee, but also equipment.
Some of the most popular brewing methods include drip coffee, French press, and espresso.
If you don’t already know what mom uses equipment-wise, ask her. There is nothing wrong with asking people questions to ensure you get the right gift for them. Trust me, she will appreciate it!
Plus you might learn she doesn’t have a French press and then you can add that as a gift idea for her too!
What’s Mom’s Flavor Profile Preference?
It’s also important to consider your mom’s flavor profile preferences. Does she like her coffee bold and strong, or smooth and mild?
Does she prefer flavored coffee or does she like a traditional coffee flavor?
Maybe she has a preferred coffee-producing country (for example I really enjoy beans from Ethiopia and Brazil).
To get a better idea of your mom’s flavor profile preferences, you can ask her about her favorite coffee flavors or try to observe what type of coffee she typically buys for herself.
Knowing this will help you choose the perfect coffee gift that suits her taste.
What Does Mom Love About Coffee?
Finally, you need to think about what your mom loves about coffee.
Is it the smell? The taste? The caffeine?
Maybe it’s the community around coffee that she enjoys – spending time with friends or family at a local coffee shop.
Whatever it is that mom loves about coffee, think about that because it could help guide you to the perfect coffee gift for her.
Top Coffee Gifts for Mom
Now that we’ve covered some of the personalized aspects of coffee gifts for moms, here are some top coffee gift ideas to consider:
1. Coffee Making Equipment
If your mom enjoys making coffee at home, consider getting her some new coffee-making equipment. Many people only have a classic drip coffee maker and basic brewing accessories like filters or maybe a coffee grinder. So equipment like, a French press, an espresso machine, or a milk frother are great ideas.
2. High-Quality Coffee Beans
For the coffee connoisseur mom, high-quality coffee beans are the perfect gift. Consider getting her a bag of freshly roasted beans from a local roaster or a special blend from a well-known coffee company. You can also opt for beans from a specific region or with unique flavor notes (barrel-aged coffee anyone!?).
Some of my favorite specialty roasters are below:
3. Coffee Subscription Service
For the mom who loves to try new coffee blends, a coffee subscription service is an excellent gift idea.
There are many subscription services available that deliver freshly roasted coffee beans to your doorstep on a regular basis. You can choose the frequency of the deliveries and the type of coffee you want to receive.
Cratejoy has many options for coffee subscription boxes and Bean Box is a great option you can even get on Amazon.
4. Coffee-themed Books
For the mom who loves to read and learn about coffee, a coffee-themed book is a great gift idea. You can choose from books about coffee history, coffee culture, or coffee recipes. You can also opt for a coffee table book with beautiful photos of coffee and coffee shops from around the world.
I personally own the below coffee books and think they would make great coffee gifts for moms!
- The World Atlas of Coffee
- 21st Century Coffee: A Guide
- Tea, Coffee & Chocolate: How We Feel in Love with Caffeine
5. Coffee-Scented Candles
Coffee-scented candles are a perfect gift for any coffee lover. They can create a cozy and warm atmosphere in any room. Some amazing coffee-scented candles include:
- Fresh Coffee from Sweet Water Decor – This candle has a rich aroma of freshly brewed Hawaiian Kona coffee as well as sweet notes of caramel creme, mocha latte, and rum.
- The Crystal Coffee House Candle from Chrissys Candle Creations – Uses the scent of coffee beans/freshly brewed coffee, but it also includes hints of rum, brandy, brown sugar, and cocoa beans.
- “The Barista” soy coffee candle from No Ennui – A delicious coffee shop scent dressed with whole and ground coffee beans on top of wax.
6. Coffee Spa Gift Set
A coffee spa gift set is a perfect gift for a mom who loves to pamper herself. The gift set usually includes coffee-infused body scrub, body butter, and bath bombs. Some of the best coffee spa gift sets include:
- Life’s Butter Self-Care Bundle
- Coffee Scrub from withSimplicity
7. Coffee Jewelry
Coffee jewelry is a unique and stylish gift for a coffee-loving mom. Some ideas for coffee jewelry include:
- Coffee Bean Necklace – A beautiful sterling silver coffee bean necklace
- Coffee Cup Earrings – These are my personal favorite and I wear them all the time!
8. A Set of Coffee Mugs or Can Glasses
You can’t go wrong with a coffee mug, but you can take it a step further and get a set of mugs or glasses that are coffee-themed for your coffee-loving mom. Choose a mug with a unique design or one that features her favorite color and buy a matching set.
Below are my favorite small shops for coffee mugs and glasses of various styles and designs.
- Little Things with Sam – perfect for a Disney-loving mom!
- Rachel Allene Shop – my favorite can glasses!
- Made for Mama Shop – mugs made specifically with moms in mind (use code KTLIKESCOFFEE here to save 10%!)
9. Something from a Local Coffee Shop
Local coffee shops are a great place to find unique and locally-made coffee gifts. Here are a few things to look for when shopping at a local coffee shop:
- Coffee beans: Many local coffee shops roast their own coffee beans, which can make for a great coffee gift for mom.
- Coffee accessories: Local coffee shops may also sell coffee accessories, such as pour-over coffee makers, reusable coffee cups, or decor like kitchen towels and tote bags.
- Gift cards: If you’re not sure what to get, consider purchasing a gift card for a local coffee shop. Mom will love going to her favorite place and picking up her favorite drink.
10. A Coffee-Themed Activity
There are so many ways you can incorporate coffee into a fun activity-style present for your mom. I love puzzles, and I know so many other moms who do too! Puzzles are a great way to practice self-care and relax on a slow Sunday morning. You could also consider a coffee-themed coloring book or a puzzle book.
- Coffee Lover’s 500-Piece Jigsaw Puzzle
- Sudoku for Your Coffee Break
- Digital Mommy and Me Coffee Coloring Book
These unique coffee gifts for mom are sure to delight!
Whether it’s a coffee-scented candle, a delicious bag of specialty coffee, or a gift card to her favorite coffee shop, your mom will be sure to appreciate the thought and effort you put into finding the perfect coffee gift for her.
