How do you drink your coffee?

Jk, I drink my coffee black. Unless it's cold brew over ice and then I add some stevia and light cream-life changing.

I drink medium or dark roast with a little bit of skim milk and a teaspoon of splenda0
-
Ice in glass. Extra strong 2 cups. Wait for it to get cold and chug . 3 or 4 times a week0
-
Chock full of nuts! It has an inherently chocolately flavor0
-
One cup per day with exactly 2tbsp of French vanilla creamer (70cal). If I'm really trying to watch my sugar I'll go with just milk. But I kind of look at this one cup of coffee as a morning treat.0

one or two cups with a tbsp of heavy cream. Delicious! Also I havent gotten to drink any since my wisdom teeth out . Im day 30

I like dark roasts, and have my coffee with cream (half and half) and stevia. I don't do the concoctions and flavored coffees and I don't like black coffee. I have a small Keurig machine, but I use a permanent K-cup which keeps the cost and waste down. You can get the metal or plastic K-cup adapters pretty much anywhere the K-cups are sold.0

You can get k-cups on Amazon cheaper than what the stores sell them for. You can also get the reusable container (not sure what they are called) that you can fill with ground coffee. Just be aware that the keurig 2.0 only takes keurig brand cups so make sure you read the fine or not so fine print!
You can "fix" the Keurig so it can use any kcup. I recommend going on YouTube and watching the many solutions people
have come up with. I did the wire snip, took 10 minutes and I can use any one I want.1 -
I'm 50 and just started drinking coffee a year ago. It's delicious. Recently I've been adding a scoop of coconut oil powder to help up my fat macro a bit.2

Mmmm. Coffee. This thread certainly shows that there are as many ways to drink coffee as there are types of people that drink it.
My advice is to experiment with different types, roasts, flavors, even brew methods.
My preferred coffee is the Target brand, Archer Farms. I make it by the cup using a pour over cone. Then I add whatever flavor of non dairy creamer I have in the fridge at the moment or almond milk creamer. 12 grams of coffee grounds, 9 ounces of hot water, 20 grams of creamer. I like consistency.0 -
I rarely ever drink coffee even though I love it. I sleep a lot better now though. Now I only tend to drink it when I'm sleep deprived to be able to make it to sunset, one tsp of rock sugar and a splash of almond milk. I drink tea though for taste and benefits, with which I take just the rock sugar.0

I roll with Eight O'Clock's Dark Italian Espresso. Even run through a conventional Bunn coffee maker, the stuff is amazing.1 -

Exactly the way I was thinking when I posted earlier.0 -
I usually have my coffee with almond milk and sometimes with a tiny bit of artificial sweetener. I have been trying to cut out the sweetener though.0

That's why I liked it so much lol
Yesterday I experimented with DaVince 0 calorie raspberry syrup, that I have on hand for hot cocoa, along with a bit of ff milk and that came in at around 20 calories I also have their 0 calorie caramel syrup and I think I'll stick to those, along with the ff milk to dilute the coffee taste a bit, for my main go-to coffee for now.

Sorry to triple post but I got my wisdom teeth out last year and the healing sucked But the skin on my gums had grown over within a month, at which point it was much better. So just remember that the more you stay within the limits of the recommended diet the faster you will heal! Good luck!0 -
every day, all day. But by "coffee" I mean water that's been run through ground beans. Nothing added, no milk, no sugar, no creamer, no caramel, no nothing.0
-
I decided on 2-3 tbsp of 10% cream, nothing else. I used 35% cream before but used up too many calories. I also did BPC but too many calories. Dinner needed to be small.0
-
Black, hot, and loaded with caffeine.
No additives for me.0 -
-
All depends on if you like a strong coffee taste or you just like a hint of the taste. I go with sale items like Folgers or Maxwell House. French roast, black.0
-
I'm a low carber so either light or heavy cream and Splenda it's like heaven.0

I bring two travel mugs of coffee to work each day since I am a one person office and don't want to deal with a coffee maker. My two travel mugs is more than 4 cups of coffee ... For about 60 calories total (both mugs), I can have a little regular sugar, monk fruit sweetener, some Silk Almond or So Delicious Coconut Creamer (both brands come in several flavors - hazelnut or caramel-yum!) and a little SugaVida, a natural sweetener high in B vitamins and other nutrients (it has a caramel-like back flavor) ...
As for the coffee itself, I am a bit particular. We have a local roaster that sells weekly at a nearby farmers market so the beans are roasted the day before - super fresh! I am partial to the medium to dark roasts that have notes of cocoa, caramel, sweet tobacco and/or brown sugar. However, I do like some of the lighter flavors too that have hints of papaya, vanilla, citrus and other lighter tones.0 -
I like it black for the most part, and I'm not fancy. Maxwell House is my go-to. McDonald's also makes a ground coffee that's good for at home brewing. I'll buy other fancier coffee / whole beans when they're on sale.
This morning, I had 2 tablespoons of International Delights Caramel, 50 mL of whole milk, and 10 grams of Hershey's Indulgent Caramel sauce with 14 oz of black coffee. So good!0 -
Decaf with a tsp of honey.0

I have a moka pot which makes 4 oz. of really strong coffee. I get the espresso blend from Costco and mix it with an ounce or two of milk or half and half. If I'm out of dairy I'll settle for a teaspoon of sugar.
My out and about fave is Mcdonald's coffee with two creams. A large is only a dollar. When I splurge on Starbucks I get a peppermint mocha, which you can get all year so I'm not sure why they get all excited about it at Christmas.0
