For those of us who don't think that coffee is the devil's drink, what do you add to yours? I'm looking for some ideas as the serving and a half of coffee-mate that I've been adding just isn't doing it for me anymore.

    What about having a flavored coffee (hazelnut, pumpkin spice, etc.) and not adding anything?

    Ice cream, chocolate syrup, and chocolate chips. Not a big fan of hot coffee. :-)

    Nothing. I hate coffee but I put a slice of lemon and the "pink" stuff for sweetner. I know, I know.

    A donut? lol. I use sweet & low and international delights french vanilla. Not the best for you, but it does the job, and is better than the donut.

    I usually drink a flavored coffee hazelnut at work and caramel vanilla cream or english toffee in the Keurig at home - but I add a little coconut oil to my coffee especially my morning cup, enhances the flavor and adds a little healthy fat to my breakfast.

    I've tried that and it's not for me. I'm not really that worried about the calories. I've got plenty of calories to fill. But I'd prefer something with a little more protein and fewer carbs.

    It depends on the day. I don't drink coffee often (because caffeine makes me jittery), but sometimes I enjoy it (especially decaf).

    I will add either:

    milk
    coconut milk
    coconut milk creamer
    half and half
    cream

    I usually don't bother sweetening it. Or I use vanilla stevia or honey.

    Oh, but if I am at a hotel I use the creamer stuff they have.

    "extra extra skim" at Dunks, which comes out to like .5 cups i think, depending on the person.
