So apparently, coffee isn’t just for surviving Mondays—it now moonlights as a fruit flavor enhancer. Yes, it’s that overachieving.
This board is what happens when your fruit goes on a caffeine bender and comes back tasting bougie. And we’re here for it.
You’ll soak berries, figs, and citrus in brewed coffee like a spa day for fruit—because even produce deserves luxury.
Pair it with nuts, vegan cheese, and chocolate if you’re emotionally stable. Or eat it straight from the board, no judgment.
Warning: once you serve this, brunch will never be basic again.
