What do you sweeten/lighten your coffee with?

Options
I really like the flavored creamers, but at 4 or 5 cups of coffee/day (some decaf) that adds up to over 300 calories and God knows how much sugar and processed junk!

What do you use?

    Honey. About a tablespoon or sometimes a teaspoon if I don't want it too sweet.

    i use just original coffee mate which is sweet enough so that i dont have to add any sugar. I believe they also have sugar free hazelnut flavor which is super sweet and 15 calories a serving and delicious!

    Doesn't it, though. I'm actually confused at some restaurants as to how I order a coffee without anything in it. "Regular" coffee at Dunkin Donuts yields you something with enough creamer and sugar in it that I swear the laws of physics are being violated. "Black" will usually yield you 8-10 scoops of sugar, and "nothing" and they'll look at you oddly and hand you an empty coffee cup.

    I just make it at home and bring in a thermos. Cheaper, better coffee, and I don't have to learn a different language for every coffee place I (used to) frequent.
