Instant Coffee
Instant Coffee is a concentrated, soluble form of coffee made by brewing roasted coffee and then drying the extract into granules or powder; it’s commonly used for quick hot or cold coffee drinks and for adding coffee flavor to baked goods and desserts. Nutritionally it is low in fat and fiber but can be a modest source of B vitamins — it provides about 9.5mg of niacin (vitamin B3) per 100g, which contributes to energy metabolism. Instant coffee also contains antioxidant polyphenols typical of coffee, but because it is a processed product it’s less of a whole-food choice than freshly brewed coffee.
