Camp instant coffee, tea and hot chocolate

Coffee, tea and hot chocolate to warm you up

Whether you’re just getting your day started or winding down by the campfire in the evening, there’s nothing quite as comforting as a hot drink. And a hot drink that tastes good? That’s the ultimate luxury, and all you need to make it happen is the right package and a bit of boiled water.

Instant coffee is a quick and easy way to enjoy coffee while you’re camping, but it’s not the only way, either. Drip coffee, pour-over, French press – all kinds of options are available with a little patience and the right tools. Check out camping coffee makers and kettles for the hardware you need after picking out your beans or grounds of choice.

For a sweeter option, hot chocolate offers a caffeine-free way to start the day (or you can mix it with your coffee for the best of both worlds). Classic milk and dark chocolate options are a comforting go-to, while flavoured hot chocolates can break up the routine to give you something extra sweet to wake up to.

If you’re looking for something simple, tea is the way to go. Caffeinated or otherwise, it’s a great option for something quick and comforting at any time of day.

Worried about your drinks getting cold? A vacuum bottle or flask is a great way to keep your coffee, tea or hot chocolate warm for hours so you can enjoy it at your leisure.
