Spava Coffee

Why It's Good:

This coffee isn't just delicious, but is also packed with extra benefits, such as boosting your immune system, even your metabolism.

Why It's Green:

Shade trees and birds control pests—not chemicals that can soak the soil and end up in our food chain—when it comes to cultivating organic coffee. Also the coffee is fair trade, so you can rest easy that workers are being treated and paid fairly.

Where To Get It:

Coffee that Boosts Your Energy—and Your Immunity

Any java junkie can attest to the fact that coffee provides clarity, but thanks to Spava and its naturally fortified line of coffees, that morning cup of joe can also boost your immunity, flexibility and metabolism. Spava infuses certified organic coffee beans with extra ingredients, such as echinacea purpurea and rosehips for "Immunity," or white tea and memory-enhancing ginkgo biloba for "Clarity." As for their "Calm?" No, it's not an oxymoron, it's their decaf offering and it's fortified with soothing passionflower extract and vitamin B6. Don't worry: A mug of Spava does not taste like a trip to the holistic medicine counter. Each coffee, which comes in twelve ounce bags, is made up of high-quality Arabica beans and, in our taste-testing experience, appeals to the most persnickety of palates. So whether you're searching for serenity, a fat-burning boost or just a good commuter cup of coffee, Spava's Fair Trade line will give you just the perk you want.
