“The” (article)

Hi, please see these examples:

It’s your turn to bring gifts to the party. / It’s your turn to bring the gifts to the party.

Likewise, “it’s your turn to make (the) coffee.

Is either fine (with or without the article)? I feel either is fine, the definite article just makes it more emphatic (we already know that the occasion involves gifts and coffee, it’s your job to bring them)

Thank you!
