I don't know about you, but I've got a couple of coffee lovers on my gift list this year. I could always pick up a pound of Dunkin Donuts coffee to shove in their stockings, but this sugar scrub is so much better. I'm not a big coffee girl myself, but this scrub would have me raring to go in the morning for sure!
It couldn't be easier with just three ingredients you may already have in your house:
Coffee Sugar Scrub
Materials
- Scant 1 cup sugar
- 1 tablespoon ground coffee
- Clear Soft Soap, or similar
- 4oz canning jar
Directions
- In a small bowl, whisk together the sugar and ground coffee.
- Add about a ¼ inch of soap to the bottom of the jar and pour the sugar mixture in.
- Stir in a little bit more soap until the sugar is completely incorporated and the mixture is a nice consistency – not too thick, and not runny.
How do you store homemade body scrub?
This coffee sugar scrub should be stored in an airtight container. Mason jars work great!
How to use coffee sugar scrub
- Wet your skin with warm water.
- Apply a small about of the DIY scrub to your skin and massage in a circular motion.
- Rinse.
That's it! Easy-peasy.
I do not recommend using this on sensitive skin or on your face.

I made this today and it smells so good! My daughter has a birthday this week and loves coffee and sugar scrubs, so I had to make it for her! Is it supposed to be lumpy or smooth? I may have it too smooth, it isn't runny, but not real thick either. But, it is great for a gift and she will love it. Just don't know if I should add more sugar?
