    I like my coffee how I like my men; Strong and Irish.

    3-4 shots espresso in 3/4-1 cup of steamed whole milk. Sweet and fluffy with a bitter edge. I have 1-2 a day and i don't mind spending my calories there.

    Black, black, black.
    Black as night.

    I've been drinking it that way since I was in my late teens.

    The only time I add a sweetener of some sort (sugar or other), is if the coffee is really bad. Think US hotel "complimentary breakfast" coffee. <<shudder>>

    Or if I'm not feeling well and just need something to tone the coffee down a bit. Although usually in those cases, I switch to tea.

    If it's hot, I drink it with just half & half. If it's iced, I like it with milk and 2 Splendas.

    Hi Again
    No matter how it is taken as long as it is not Coffee & Butter, AKA Bulletproof Coffee (butter coffee) :)

    Cheers

    I'm the same way, light and sweet. I stopped adding sugar, and use a sugar free creamer of whatever flavor in feeling. Usually hazelnut. Occasionally I'll use one with sugar, if it's a seasonal one and I want it. But even the sugar free creamer adds enough sweetness to it. I use 3 Tbsp per cup of coffee.

    I don't like drinks to be super hot, so I usually add a few ice cubes... sometimes a dash of cinnamon. Other than that just black.

    It's easier to drink coffee with little in it if it's good coffee and a roast you like. I'm a French roast (dark but not Italian) devotee. I used to sweeten but broke the habit. Now it's just a bit of unsweetened soy milk.

    Daily coffee drinker here. I cut out sugar after undergrad because when I started working full time, I found the sugar was making me jittery in the morning. So I went to just half & half, then to almond milk about a year or two ago and now I drink it completely black. I'll have an iced latte with skim milk once in a while (probably once a month or so) or with almond milk if it's available. I don't miss it...

    I LOVE a regular at Tim Horton's (1 cream, 1 sugar, but their version of "1" is ridiculous!) but now I've started going to the gas station and putting in about 1-2 oz of a flavor (french vanilla, cappuccino, mocha, etc) in 12 or 16 oz, and it ends up being around 40 calories. I'm not ready to give up coffee!

    Half-pack of sweetener and double cream. Cream, not milk. Sweetener or sugar I can live without but the cream is non-negotiable. Coffee cream is probably my single largest source of dietary fat and I don't care. Priorities.

    Hi from the UK..... I have 1 to 2 cups a day. Dolce gusto Lungo in a small cup with semi milk & 1 tsp of soft brown sugar. It's a way of life, has been for the last few years now. I look forward to it every day!

    I recently found International Delight sugar free pumpkin spice creamer. Oh. My. Goodness. I gave up spend a last year but because it's in the house because hubby is diabetic, I mixed some into a strong cup of black coffee and 2 tbsp of the creamer....YUM! I drink one cup of this in the am before work but black coffee the rest of the day

    I also love sweet coffee. I add about a tablespoon of Stevia and then some chocolate almond milk. I honestly do not measure it because a serving (8oz) is like 100 calories and I use nowhere near a whole cup of it lol so to me it's negligible and I estimate about 40 calories.
