Slow Down And Cozy Up To National Coffee Break Day, January 20th, With A Special Fika Recipe Treat From Felix Jams

BLOOMFIELD, N.J., Jan. 12, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- Italians sip it at a coffee bar; Americans order it to go. But in Sweden the traditional coffee break, called a fika, is a treasured daily ritual, a time to slow down, spend time with friends and enjoy a fresh cup of coffee with a delicious pastry.  In fact, the average Swede consumes 4 cups a day compared to the average American's 2.7 cups.  

Felix Jams, the most popular lingonberry jam in Sweden and the USA, celebrates National Coffee Break Day on January 20^th by inviting you to savor the moment with a special recipe for Lingonberry Sour Cream Coffee Cake. Rich with cinnamon, pecans and tart sweet lingonberries, it's the perfect fika treat for friends and family, and a great excuse to take some time out.

Felix Jams are made of simple, pure ingredients: wild hand-picked berries, pure sugar and fresh water in a time-tested recipe. Because many Swedes are accustomed to picking their own berries, an unusually high standard is required for jams to succeed in Sweden and Felix is the number one choice.
