    Take mine black too. Just love those straight double shots of expresso w/a lemon twist. Yum! :)

    I put a tablespoon of organic heavy whipping cream in mine. No sugar in it but it makes it creamy!

    I love fresh ground, and either French press or espresso.

    Instant coffee here. Take it black. Cannot tell the difference between my 5 cent cuppa coffee and the expensive ones.

    If you mix in a whole bunch of hot cocoa mix, it's not too bad. :/

    Black coffee is best coffee. Pure and natural. It really irks me when people say they love coffee, of course it's always 1/2 flavored creamer and sugar. You don't like the taste of coffee, you like the taste of creamer. It can't really be called coffee at that point.

    I agree except it really depends on the type of coffee it is. If I'm at a local coffee shop that roasts their own beans and has amazing coffee, I drink that bad boy black. However, if I'm at work and I'm forced to drink the break room coffee, please hand me the equal and the flavored creamer!!

    At home I keep a package of cinnamon sticks. I brew my coffee and put a stick of cinnamon in either the pot or the cup. The flavor is quite pleasant to me, without any need of other sweeteners or amendments.

    Or some people just like their coffee differently than you?

    It really irks me when other people feel the need to comment about my coffee prep. I use 3 splendas and 20mL of half & half for a 10oz coffee, and it never fails that someone (usually an older person) feels the need to comment if they see it.

    I dunno that I agree with this. I put stuff in my coffee to cool it off enough so I can drink it. I use whipping cream because water would just result in brown water instead of coffee. The cream adds a richness that compliments the flavour.

    When I was younger I tried to drink my coffee black and It was just too bitter. Our taste preferences do change as we age and now I don't mind it black.

    Think of sweetened coffee like a gateway drug to purer forms of the beverage...
