    espresso, milk (optional). end.

    Add anything else and it is no longer coffee.

    For the record though I do occasionally make an iced coffee (2 espresso shots, 200ml skim milk and unflavoured whey). It's not bad and I prefer it over most of the sweetened / flavoured protein powders.

    From a coffee shop I love a hazelnut latte, but this morning I made my own hazelnut milk and tried it in my coffee... Omg amazing. It forms a think creamy layer on the top which you drink the coffee through, divine.

    i recently got k-cups in my life and i love them! there are sooo many coffee with diffrent flavors that have no calories at all. some fresh grind when you buy....the best part is with the k-cup filter cup you can buy a sample from many diffrent flavors and see if you like them without spending a fortune

    I'd say cut it out, either all at once or slowly and gradually. It will taste gross at first but you'll get used to it. That's how I cut out the sugar in my coffee.

    OK I have never posted here before just read what others write. However, I had to step out on this. I drink a ton of coffee, I don't do the flavors but I love it sweet. I use to use 3 heaping teaspoons of sugar in each cut. NO JOKE.

    Then I experienced with artificial sweetners. Then heard all the side effects and I figured I would just cut back on coffee, but I loved it. So I decided to try the Stevia powders after all its all natural... YUCK what a horrible after taste.

    One day at a resteraunt a friend pulls out this little bottle of liquid sweetner. I asked if I could try a little in my water. I didn't want my water sweetened I wanted to see if I could taste an after taste. I didn't! Instead I tasted the sweetest most delectiable sweetner ever. I was shocked to find out it was LIQUID STEVIA made by Stevia clear. I love this stuff. Use it all the time. I have recommended it to so many people. If you haven't tried Stevia Clear's liquid stevia I highly recommend it.

    I have no connection to the company but wish I did. I'm a very satisfied customer.

    I drink coffee nearly black. I use a little bit of coffee mate every once in a while but mostly it's just a tiny splash of half and half. If you like your coffee lighter I would say coffee mate or a low fat milk.

    I love the International Delight and Bailey's brand flavored creamers (and Coffee Mate is what's at work, I like that enough too), so I have 2 tbsp in my coffee. I've tried weaning to black coffee, but I just can't give up my flavored creamers. It's only 50-70 calories for 2 tbsp. I can certainly make room in my day for that. :)

    I use heavy cream and no sugar. I used to use a big spoon of sugar (as in, a tablespoon sized spoon) but weaned myself off of it. I don't miss it now.

    I'll be no help, I can't stand adulterated coffee. Add water to the grounds and drink (OK put it through a mokka first.
    This.
    I buy really high quality beans, grind them and brew them. Add just ice.

    Gradually worked my way down to just a splash of skim (mud colored coffee for me!)

    But a tablespooon of protein powder (chocolate or vanilla) mixed with milk and added to steaming mug is pretty sweet ...
