Black coffee has the ability to burn skin fat. Have a cup of black coffee in the morning before your workout for about 30 minutes. The fats in your body will be burned during your exercise afterward. Additionally, the coffee grounds can be used to massage your skin, making it bright and removing dead cells.

Among effective ways to drink coffee for weight loss, having dinner before 7 p.m. and drinking an additional cup of black coffee without sugar will significantly help you lose weight while reducing the chance of getting coffee-induced symptoms such as headaches or dizziness, as when you drink coffee on an empty stomach. Also, having an early dinner usually leads to late-night hunger, so having coffee at that time will significantly reduce the feeling of craving, helping you avoid the temptations of delicious snacks and desserts at night.

Ingredients:

• Ground coffee: 3 tablespoons
• White cane sugar: 1 tablespoon
• Boiling water 100°C: 160 ml

How to make:

• Rinse the coffee filter with boiling water, making sure to rinse both the filter lid and the filter press thoroughly to raise the temperature of the filter, so that when brewed, the coffee will receive the optimal temperature.

• Pour 160ml of boiling water at 100 degrees into the filter, slowly pouring in a circular motion into the filter press, about 20% of the boiling water, then stop, wait 30 – 60 seconds for the coffee to steep before continuing to pour the remaining 80% of the boiling water. Then wait for the coffee to fully dissolve in the water.
