I have a serious addiction to International Delight creamers, but I am trying to get off the stuff because it's just not the kind of thing i want to put in my body. What do you put in your coffee? I generally like mine pretty sweet/light. I tried putting sugar and half and half, but the half and half tastes sour to me. I have also tried with milk and same thing. Any other ideas?

If you drink it black I'm sort of jealous.. I wish I could drink it like that, but I just love it sweet.

    Black.
    or at work since we have crappy k-cups, I mix 4oz milk with half a scoop of chocolate prote in powder. Pour some in each cup I drink (3-4 cups of coffee)

    I put a splash of evaporated milk. Since it has a certain sweetness to it, I was able to stop adding sugar (I don't like the taste of artificial sweeteners). Sometimes I sprinkle a bit of cinnamon as well.

    I drink mine straight for the most part.
    I do like the sugar free liquid creamers from Coffee Mate though. I'll occasionally put in a tbsp.

    unsweetened vanilla coffee mate. Not the best but I only have two cups so 2tbsp isn't too bad.

    I used to drink it black with 4 splenda. I found that splenda was not good for me so I went to cream only. If I have coffee at work it's a k cup so I put international delight as well but the hazelnut one.

    Almond milk and Stevia. I love light, sweet coffee too and I found this to be the best combo.

    Fake powdered creamer. I am used to it and actually prefer it now. No sugar or sweetener EVER! I like my coffee to taste like COFFEE! Sometimes black but I grind my beans right before brewing. I have the nerve to be a coffee snob who drinks nondairy creamer, ha ha!

    Half and half. I happen to actually like the taste of coffee, and I feel it's ruined with any kind of sugar or sweeteners. However, during the holidays, I like to sprinkle a little cinnamon on the grounds before brewing for a little festive flavor.
