For many of us, coffee is a simple pick-me-up to get our day going. But for others, their daily cup of joe is a necessity in the morning. Serious coffee drinkers see it as more of a lifestyle than just a simple beverage.
And while you can make coffee from the comforts of your own home, at times, it just doesn’t cut it. Sure, your trusty coffee machine might just do the trick. But let’s face it — nothing beats a professionally brewed cuppa, or more specifically, in this case, the classic cold brew.
In the stay-at-home era that we live in, having our favourite cold brews delivered to our doorsteps is a new way to caffeinate. What’s more, you can also order it in bulk so you can fuel up for the week ahead.
So in a bid to support our caffeine cravings, ahead, we’ve rounded up some of the best cold brews in town.

Considering Singapore’s balmy climate, cold brews, like the ones by Naga Brews make the perfect thirst-quenchers on a hot summer’s day. While they may have just recently launched their business in 2021, Naga Brews has become a serious contender in the game of coffee.
