“Live life today like there is no coffee tomorrow”

“Live life today like there is no coffee tomorrow” is a coffee saying that has been printed on many images.
 
The saying was popularized in the book The Little Book of Hygge: The Danish Way to Live Well (2016) by Meik Wiking (“hygge” means “coziness”).
   
“The link between coffee and hygge is evident in the Danish language. Kaffehygge, another compound word, this one consisting of ‘coffee’ and ‘hygge’, is everywhere. “Come to ‘kaffehygge’, kaffehygge and cake, gymnastics and kaffehygge, yarn and kaffehygge. Kaffehygge is everywhere. There is even a website dedicated to kaffehygge which states, ‘Live life today like there is no coffee tomorrow.’
     
It’s uncertain where this “kaffehygge” website is (and if the website is in English).
   
     
Wikipedia: Hygge
Hygge (/ˈh(j)uːɡə/; Danish: [ˈhykə]; Norwegian: [ˈhŷɡːə]) is a Danish and Norwegian word for a mood of coziness and comfortable conviviality with feelings of wellness and contentment. As a cultural category with its sets of associated practices hygge has more or less the same meanings in Danish and Norwegian. The emphasis on hygge as a core part of Danish culture is a recent phenomenon, dating to the late 20th century.

So while you can hygge without coffee, having some definitely helps.
