Star Wars Fan Creates A Hilarious Comparison of How Star Wars Characters Would Make Coffee And People Think It’s Spot-On
Given coffee’s popularity, I think it’s safe to say that most people absolutely love coffee. In pretty much the same way, given the popularity of Star Wars, it’s safe to say that most people absolutely love Star Wars. Now, what happens when you put the two together?
A woman by the name of Violet Wilson, a twenty-something writer based out of Minneapolis with whom Bored Panda got in touch for an interview, recently went to Twitter to share her guide to how every Star Wars character prepares coffee—everything from gas station and Starbucks coffee to Keurigs, Moka teapots, and straight-up caffeine pills. Now all we need is for someone to create one of those internet personality tests where you are assigned a Star Wars character based on how you make your coffee.
We invite you to check out and vote on her 16 submissions and a number of additions posted by her fans and other Twitter users.

If you are Turkish most of the coffee styles is rubbish and weak for you. Because you start your coffee journey with Turkish coffee and let's except it, that s**t is strong :D
Wait...what? I do this often...does this mean I'm old...or a Jedi Master?
Princess, Ambassador, Senator, General and you think she wouldn't indulge. Yeah, right ! Something exquisite perhaps, something refined...
"I'd seen people use this "characters as other things" as a format before and always got a kick out of it," explained Violet the inspiration behind this little Star Wars coffee project. "I love Star Wars and have spent a lot of time watching movies and reading books, and I thought that I could give it a shot. The only thing I like as much as Star Wars is coffee, so it made sense to me!"
"Coffee is what gives a Jedi his power...it binds the galaxy together."
Yup ! Brings me back to the Light side every morning :D
Load More Replies...No one is going to point out that he played a Ranger in "Blackhawk Down" that made coffee.... with a French press. "It's all in the grind, Sargt. Can't be too fine, can't be too course." lol
We asked Violet whether there was some sort of reasoning as to why a specific coffee preparation method was assigned to a specific Star Wars character. She explained the process as a "gut feeling" and added: "I like writing Star Wars fan fiction, so something I really enjoy is thinking about characterization. I thought, you know, Obi Wan for example is a little old fashioned, and he's thoughtful and careful. So, I thought that something like a French Press would suit him! I also wanted to find images that matched the style and look of each character as well. Padmé Amidala has a very old fashioned, almost Renaissance character design so I found something that had wood and brass in it to match her aesthetic."
This one is highly incorrect... Dameron prefers the little brown paper packets provided in American MREs (meal, ready-to-eat which are US military rations): "Coffee, Instant, Type II,Spray Dried"
Wrong, Anakin doesn’t drink coffee because the grounds remind him of sand
If you notice on some coffee pots, the lids do resemble his helmet when flipped back. He found the lack of my coffee disturbing, so I had to make a pot.
"Dark and bitter, and a product of the '70s, like me."

Needless to say, this left her rather surprised: "I basically just tweet to make my friends laugh, so it was cool to see that so many other people liked it too. Honestly, it was a total blast! Twitter can be kind of divisive, so I was happy that I made something that hopefully anyone who enjoys Star Wars can read and enjoy. People added their own suggestions for other characters, too, which was fun for me as a fellow fan. It's a weird time and it feels nice to think that I made some people smile."
Personally not a fan of Kylo Ren, he’s almost as whiny as Episode 4 Luke and he wouldn’t last 10 seconds in a lightsaber duel against any of the old Jedi. They had finesse and skill, and Kylo and Rey just act like they’re smacking at people with sticks. Unpopular opinion maybe, but I stand by it
I would not expect Aragorn to think any differently of Kylo.
Load More Replies...The Aeropress is fantastic…Kylo needs better coffee to calm him down!
Reminisces over weak, lukewarm coffee how his mask and coffee just screams "I'm 14 and this is COOOOOOOOL!" ;)
Nah, Han does the old school campfire type percolator coffee, jet black with a few grounds drifting around.
Now, the main question is still left unanswered: what is Violet's favorite coffee, and does that fit the character she assigned it to?
"Tough one, but I like cold brew coffee the best, which would make me most like Han Solo according to my own thread. I'm definitely not as much of a "shoot first" type person, but I adore Han's character so I'll take it!" said Violet.
Actually, I think Rey just goes right into the first Starbucks she comes across, force-asskicks the barista out the way, gets behind the counter, and instantly knowing how to operate their coffee machine, makes the perfect 'Small scrap nipple slap half half' :D
Everybody knows that all food and drinks on Jakku require hydration.... Rey drinks instant, but has little choice
"Come away with me. Help me brew our coffee. Leave everything behind while you still can!"
Ok so the coffee filters through from the top in slow drips.
Load More Replies...Now, Violet found success beyond just reposts on Imgur, manifesting itself in a way that is by some considered the highest form of approval and honor: "Some of authors of Star Wars books re-tweeted the thread with comments saying they liked it, which basically is the coolest thing ever. Star Wars is so fun."
Nothing nice about thin, watery, sour, flavorless "coffee" in environmentally unsound packaging...just like Storm Trooper armor- It looks nice at first till one realizes it does nothing to protect the wearer from anything...
Like the Uruk-Hai. They look scary until you realize that they die more easily than stormtroopers
Load More Replies...Funny comment but no need to use the name of Jesus Christ in such a way.
This thread is about fictional characters. He fits right in!
Load More Replies...That droid is like a Swiss army knife. He could very well be his own coffee machine
Damn my friend drank one small cup of that stuff and was up for a week lmao
Death Wish Coffee Co. Sounds like something straight out of an anime. Death note? More like Death Wish Coffee Co.!!
“The ability to speak does not make you intelligent”
Load More Replies...It is Domhnall Gleeson. I bet Bill Weasley likes coffee, much to the annoyance of Fleur and Molly
hold on wait I just realized this man is the literal embodiment of Hans in Frozen what the heck
Does anyone else think that him and the coffee cup look like each other?!
Add hot milk and sugar to that then "pull" it and you have a classic, foamy Teh Tarik. Bliss.
Ah, but qahwa goes best with dates. You have to admit even coffee with Admiral Holdo would be an unforgettable date.

One of the best cups of coffee I have ever had was in Tunisia. It was definitely made with ordinary roasted coffee, and I think it was with orange blossom water, but I was never able to make it myself. I will try again, this time adding cardamom.
Load More Replies...They do it add water. They just use a big ole pinch between cheek and gum.
They don't actually put water in it. They just kinda take a scoop and chew it.
I think I might just go into cardiac arrest drinking a cup of that!!!
If yiu haven't already, check out that website.. perfect for caffeine addicts.
#19 is Death Maul using "Death Wish Coffee". Hopefully it's made for Nespresso.
Chewbacca drinks Kopi Iuwak. Not because he's rich and fancy, but because he lives with a bunch of civets and grows his own beans, which they eat.
KOPI IUWAK translates as "Made from coffee beans defecated by Asian Palm Civets"... although the IUWAK could easily be misread as EWOK (who are also furry creatures who live in trees but whose feces is not harvested for partially digested coffee beans).
Load More Replies...Also Baby Yoda drinks hot cocoa with lil marshmallows (he too smol for coffee) in a bowl <3
This is so pure.. And true! Baby Yoda is amazing.
Load More Replies...I headcanon that Anakin Skywalker drinks coffee mostly dark but with sugar. Because he's trying to look edgy but seriously just cannot drink the stuff without something to sweeten it. And then he gets on a caffeine high for the rest of the day, annoying Obi-Wan.
These were some of the best imaginative comparisons I have seen. Bravo! Well done!
young Anakin doesn't drink coffee; he's fueled by the power of the whine and diet coke.
