Do Not Get Decaf

Source: https://article.images.consumerreports.org

In Sweden, “Fika” is a favorite daily tradition where friends, family, or colleagues get together for a social break of coffee and sweets. Even though the Swedes are a conservative lot, they enjoy at least one Fika each day as an opportunity to bond with friends and family. If you still find the moments of silence awkward, then you’ll be glad to participate in Fika to socialize, meet new people, and make friends. Note that Swedes are among the world’s biggest coffee drinkers, consuming an average of five cups a day, and they like their coffee very, very strong. So, avoid looking for decaf because this option is difficult to find in their cafes. Even if decaf is available, expect the powdered, tasteless variety that they just mix with water. If you don’t drink coffee, just get something else like tea or hot chocolate instead of ordering decaf.
