Coffee or Tea? For somebody who needs the caffeine buzz to function, I’d pick coffee— no questions asked. That’s why coffee shops work… literally! It’s a place for work meetings, to hang out, or in my case, to write.
But with the new normal underway, staying in a coffee shop seems like a dream. So for those who reminisce about the yesteryears of freshly brewed coffee, I’ve got for you a list of small businesses and shops that offer bottled coffees. And yes, you can enjoy them right at home.
Take a look!
Bring the Coffee Shop Experience to Your Home with These 31 Bottled Brews
31. Common Grounds

Common Grounds LGN started a few months after the quarantine started. Growing up both from the north and the south, the owner, Harel Paguio, thinks that she is close to the people in both areas. She spent a huge part of her childhood in Bataan, and the rest in Laguna. The pandemic brought a lot of businesses to a halt, heightened the unemployment rate, and drastically changed her lifestyle.
As everyone was bound in their homes, she decided that it was the perfect opportunity to rekindle her friendship with the families she has lost connection with. One of which owns a coffee plantation in Cordillera which was struggling due to all the changes in our economy. They struck up the idea that maybe starting a business in the south to sell their coffee was a great way to help them, and they were more than happy to be the sole supplier to Common Grounds LGN. A few months later, they both supported one another in their growth as a small business—she helped them push their products to the south, and they helped her start a business.
The owner likes to call herself a self-proclaimed coffee addict. She drinks coffee almost daily. There are days where she craves a certain taste more than others. Her friends have different coffee cravings that she catered to before the pandemic. Those different coffee cravings reflected the flavors Common Grounds LGN offers. As of present, they have two kinds of latte, the classic cold brew, Irish cream, French vanilla, and mocha. Theye are in the final stages of formulating a new flavor that will be released soon.

Each bottle goes for PHP 110 for the medium (250ml), and PHP 120 for the large (350ml). On the other hand, their milk drinks come in Strawberry or Mango and are priced at PHP 150 apiece.

An online shop established just this year, Upper Grounds offers one thing: lattes made with responsibly-sourced local beans.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CBKiXdnnWBX/

This artisan coffee brand is crafted by a husband and wife tag team, and they proudly make each bottle fresh. Thus, the shop’s milky variants can last up to 4 days, while the black coffee has a shelf life of 5 days.

For lazy people such as myself who can’t be bothered to brew coffee every day, Cold Brew concentrates are a godsend. Cycle Coffee’s Cold Brew Concentrate— priced at PHP 400 a bottle— can make up to 7 cups, and depending on how often you have your coffee, this can last you a week (or less). Personalize yours however way you like it— with milk, water, sparkling water, or as the shop says: “pure if you’re hardcore”. The recommended mix includes 2:1 for water to coffee or a 1:1 ratio if you’re going for a latte, but you can always tweak it to suit your taste.

My first experience of Arabica was in Hong Kong, and I’ve fallen in love with its full-bodied, aromatic coffee drinks. Even more so when this coffee shop arrived in the Philippines.

https://www.instagram.com/p/CBDGv-mJmEv/
Mom may not always be able to bring you coffee to give you that comfort or jolt you need but Momster is here to save the day. Momster’s bestseller is a true labor of love— the Cold Brew Concentrate— because it takes hours and hours to make. A super flexible beverage, you can drink it as iced cold brew where you douse some of it in water and top it off with ice cubes or as iced cold brew latte where instead of dousing it in water, you can use milk. A 350ml bottle (PHP 195) can make four glasses of iced coffee. It has a shelf life of 3-4 weeks.
15. Makers Cafe

https://www.instagram.com/p/B9tW2aChSdD/
Inspired by the vintage milkman, The Brewman figured, “Hey, why not bring cold brew door to door for everyone’s daily coffee needs.” The pandemic and the resulting lockdown was a perfect opportunity for this store to deliver freshly made cold brew to your doorstep. You can choose from the three cold brew variants and these are Black (PHP 140), White (PHP 140), and Almond (PHP 150). Or maybe, get all three.

Personally, coffee is always a good idea and it seems like Not Bad Coffee PH is an awesome idea. This shop offers two variants of its brew that comes in 250ml bottles— the simple Cold Brew (PHP 120) and the sophisticated Nitro Cold Brew (PHP 150).
What’s the difference, you ask? The Cold Brew is a special blend that goes through a slow-steeped process in cool water ensuring the best and most flavorful coffee experience. It’s smooth, less acidic, and highly caffeinated. Meanwhile, the Nitro Cold Brew is cold brew infused with nitrogen to deliver a smoother, richer body topped off with foam bubbles similar to your favorite draft beer. The nitrogen bubbles enhance the flavor and aroma of our special blend, ensuring a coffee experience like no other.

Dream Wide Awake is an eco-conscious mobile coffee cart that provides specialty coffee and chocolate beverages in reusable bottles. A must-try is the Benguet Cold Brew made by steeping ground coffee beans overnight in room temperature filtered water.
