add a teaspoon of
freshly ground coffee
The deep, dark, rich color of this soap is reminscent of espresso. Using a small amount of freshly ground coffee beans enhances the scent, provides texture and friction and looks pretty nice, too. Makes a wonderful kitchen soap, but give it a whirl in the shower.
