Coffee!

I like almost any brand/type of coffee, with almond milk and sweetener. It easily fits into my daily calories since it averages, 10-20 cal only.
I love caffeine.....but sometimes will drink decaf if it's all that is available.0 -
I'm a coffee snob. I like bold and darks roasts. Love coffee it's manna from heaven. I drink it black and very strong. When I want dessert I'll add creamer. I drink between 3-6 cups a day. I like making a four shot expresso and add a little water and that is the perfect cup of coffee. :laugh: :drinker: :drinker:0

You are new to coffee drinking and you take it black? That is impressive.
I'm a Barista at Starbucks, and I hate to say it, but the job has spoiled my taste in coffee. I like medium roasts black, and darker blends mixed with something, obviously, making it less bold. I'm required to try every coffee we offer in its original state and my current favorite is the Thanksgiving blend. It kind of has a nutty, roasted taste. It's delicious blended with vanilla protein powder, 1/2 cup of skim milk, a dash of cinnamon and some ice. (That's my current favorite way to drink it at the moment).0 -
I have a Tassimo and enjoy the Nabob Cafe Crema or French Vanilla with a tablespoon of fat free hazelnut creamer, Gevalia dark roast that I drink black at breakfast as a chaser to my glass of soy milk. I drink any other coffee I get black. I am also a tea lover. My new obsession is David's Tea Coffee Pu'erh which is a tea with coffee beans in it! It's just awesome and the health benefits of pu'erh tea are amazing!0

I love coffee. At home I brew either Starbucks or Larry's Beans (from NC). I use organic half and half and stevia extract. I also love latte's. I try to stay away from my favorites like cocoa capuccinos, mocha's and peppermint mocha (my fave), but if i do want it I just get 1 pump of syrup for a little flavor and much less sugar.0

Interesting about the protein powder and such. I've never tried the Thanksgiving blend, but I love Pike Place, Sumatra, Christmas blends the best.0 -

Sorry, but i must say that in my personal opinion Starbucks coffee tastes like dirt compared to the amazing stuff we have here (New Zealand) I never get any coffee or tea from Starbucks because to me, the blends all taste burned and just... ugh. Plus i'm very pro-fair trade That being said, AWESOME hot chocolates.
On another note, i take my coffee stroooooong, either black or with a little 2% milk and one sugar if i'm in the mood for something sweet0 -
We grind our beans, usually organic fair trade from Peru or Mexico. I add milk, and sometimes a bit of sugar. I don't like artificial creamers and sweeteners. If its just coffee with 20 ml 2% milk, its only 10 calories I think. Not much at all, and then you're not eating synthetic junk. :-) I'm all about the whole foods. My yogurt has to be at least 3%, I use butter in my baking. The only artificial sweetener I use is Xylitol, in my homemade toothpaste. It has some great benefits for teeth.
If you can't have milk, try almond milk. Fewer calories, still yummy. Steer clear of soy milk. Disgusting0 -
I either cold brew it, which takes a lb of coffee at a time and 12 hrs but lasts a week or so and is delicious, or I brew it hot in a coffee pot and have it with a bit of light vanilla soy milk.0

I like my coffee like I like my men... Strong, hot, and black.0

^
that's the best way to have em
I make mine with a cafetiere/french press and I'll have it black with either one sugar or one sweetner tablet.
I'm much more of a tea lover though.0 -

I have switched to the Keurig machine and that is great! I drink mine with one splenda. Funny thing is that as a retired COP you would think I like Dunkin Doughnuts coffee but it has a strange flavor. My favorite coffee bought in a shop is from Cosi. Oh and as far as giving up coffee....sure will...when I'm dead!0

Love our Keurig Machine, Most Day's I drink Extra Bold Donut Shop Blend by Coffee People but do like Timothy's Kahlua Coffee K-cup too. Always drink it black with a couple scoops of pure cane sugar........ Cafe Express makes a blend called Cafe Mocha that is really good as well if you like a chocolate tasting coffee....0
-
Freshly ground Kicking Horse coffee made in my french press along with a splash of almond milk is my absolute favourite! I usually only make it on weekends when I have time to sit and enjoy two cups. During the week I use my Keurig since it's fast and I don't need to worry about wasting any coffee. The flavours aren't nearly as complex as with a french press, but I only use Timothy's Rain Forest Espresso Blend k-cups in it, so it's not too bad either.0

Folgers, black. I measure how much I drink by the pot.0
-
Hazelnut is standard around here, its nutty and yummy. Another other flavors that are big are blueberry coffee and coconut coffee. I know it sounds weird but they really are awesome. I bet your local cafe carries then for you to try. We are sooo addicted to those flavors. Especially in the kuerig.0

i LOVE frappachino's! OMG they are the best!!
It was only 2 weeks ago when i tried my first one!
They are like a really thick cold coffee with crushed ice cubes in it!!
The sound of 'thick cold coffee' put me off them, thats why i never tried them. But 2 weeks ago me and a friend went into Starbucks, and she told me to try one, so i did. And they are by far the best coffee you can ever get!!!0 -
Here is their logo..................

the darker/bolder, the better!
jamaican blue mountain when i can get it but mostly joe's organic fair trade either italian roast or witch's brew.
no sweeteners~ just a bit of skim milk cause i want to taste the coffee not anything else.
ahhh, the sound of DBF grinding the beans while i'm still in bed....0
