The Rise of Butter Coffee: A Functional Beverage Trend

In recent years, a "novel" type of coffee has become very popular in the market—butter coffee.

Just hearing the name sounds intriguing, so what exactly is butter coffee?

Butter coffee refers to a beverage made by blending black coffee + unsalted grass-fed butter + MCT (medium-chain triglyceride) oil in a blender.

Actually, the practice of adding butter to coffee is also called Bulletproof Coffee, but the two are slightly different—for example, the flavor in butter coffee can be substituted with other types of butter.

The Origins of Butter Coffee

The earliest source of butter coffee was initiated by American Dave Asprey. Tibetan butter tea is the original form of Bulletproof Coffee, with its inspiration coming from the butter tea he first tasted while hiking in Tibet.

In 2004, Dave Asprey traveled to Tibet and developed a strong high-altitude reaction. Locals gave him a bowl of steaming butter tea. After drinking it, Dave Asprey immediately felt energetic, and even his altitude sickness was relieved. Asprey's research found that this bowl of butter tea given by locals could help him combat altitude sickness. After dedicated research and development, he found a coffee formula comparable to butter tea. In 2009, Dave Asprey, a former American cloud computing engineer, published this formula on his blog and named it "Bulletproof Coffee."

Understanding Bulletproof Coffee

The Bulletproof Coffee formula consists of black coffee + unsalted grass-fed butter and MCT oil containing medium-chain triglycerides or organic coconut oil, made by thorough blending. The essence of Bulletproof Coffee is a ketogenic diet therapy, and its fat reduction principle works by promoting a temporary state of ketosis where the body consumes fat as energy supply.

Market Development and Corporate Interest

Previously, Nestlé's announcement of collaboration with Know Brainer Foods to jointly develop the butter coffee market surprised many people, with everyone speculating whether butter coffee was also about to capture market share.

Public information shows that Know Brainer Foods is a company that produces coffee creamers containing MCT and organic grass-fed butter, headquartered in Colorado, with company founder Shari Leidich. Nestlé is a globally renowned coffee producer, owning three major coffee brands: Nescafé, Nespresso, and Starbucks.

Health Benefits and Functional Coffee

One of the reasons why drinking butter in coffee has become popular is due to their health benefits. Nestlé also previously stated: both parties' collaboration recognizes the potential in the functional coffee sector. Butter coffee not only helps with fat reduction and supplements brain power, but even contains collagen components, making it undoubtedly an excellent choice for those trying to lose weight and beauty-conscious individuals.

Future Outlook

Finally, many people wonder: will butter and coffee become a member of the functional coffee sector?
