As apéritif time, this is
another special convivial moment with your guests.
Choose the right time to have them go to the living room and preferably
make a real strong coffee in a coffee maker rather than using
instant (which we never do !).
Ideally, make an expresso for a strong coffee helps you digest.

Serving Coffee the French way
In France, the big fashion is to serve a square
of dark chocolate with your coffee.
The reason is that dark chocolate is said to
highlight the flavor and aroma of a good coffee.
You can offer Truffes/ Chocolate
Truffles,
that you would have prepared previously and
which will make of your coffee a delightful time ;
you can present them in miniature dishes.

To people
who would
not wish to
drink coffee,
you can
offer some
infusion
or tea. .

Formal uses after Coffee
To men, you must offer different kinds of
"digestif" alcohols, cognac
or armagnac type ; remember the quantity is always
very small and preferably served
in cognac special glasses.
Again to men, you can offer a good cigar and this might
be much appreciated by them, if all your
guests are Ok with its smell (which is rarely the
case!).
