    2oz of almond milk and 4 drops of liquid sucralose (I like it really sweet).

    I do love the silk flavored coffee creamers though, the caramel is delish! Sometimes I splurge and have that @ 15 cals per Tbsp :D

    I like my Coffee Mate. I have some in my morning coffee.n I also use a sugar free version in my lunch time coffee at work. I don't like it as much but it does the trick. Instead of giving up having my coffee the way I like it I just have less coffee.

    If you like it black you should just drink it that way... That's your healthiest option. I'm finally able to drink it black after years of using a splash of coffeemate. I love it black now.

    Whatever milk we have in the house, usually 1%.

    Never use creamer. Unless I'm making cà phê, then I use condensed milk.

    Woe be unto the fool who approaches my coffee with butter or coconut oil.

    2 tbs half and half, 3 Splenda packets, and 1/2 tbs cocoa powder because I love chocolate. 50 calories and it seems like a real treat!

    I use unsweetened coconut milk with just a liiiiitle heavy cream to get that full rich flavor and then a packet of Splenda.

    I use a small amount of Silk vanilla coconut milk for coffee and do not add sugar/sweetener. I find it adds a creaminess and hits the spot :)

    I use International Delight creamers most of the time. If I want to cut on calories and sugar I'll get sugar free creamer but I've noticed lately that when I do my coffee tastes weaker. ( Has anyone else noticed that?)

    2 TBSP Half and half, 1 oz milk or heavy cream. Heavy cream is a treat. Half and half or milk goes in all of my coffee. I like it that way and make room for the calories. You do you, of course, with no judgment from me.

    I've recently (and gradually) made the switch from Coffeemate creamer to unsweetened vanilla cashew milk. It's not as good as creamer but it's doing the job.

    1/4c vanilla flavored Silk Soy milk. Just the right creamy for my coffee and a touch of sweetness

    I use heavy cream. Half and half if I'm out and they don't have heavy cream.

    Usually I would just add milk or those international delight creamer singles, but a couple months ago I discovered Cremora's mint flavored protein coffee creamer powder packets in Walmart and haven't been able to stop using them! One packet is enough to cream/sweeten a cup of coffee and give it a strong peppermint flavor similar to the Starbucks peppermint mocha via latte packets, only for less calories. Even more amazing, it's REMARKABLE in protein shakes, oatmeal, etc. You name it, it's delicious in it! I also tried their caffeinated coconut creamer but wasn't as impressed, although my boyfriend likes that one a lot.

    I like Nestle Coffee Mate Natural Bliss, Vanilla and Hazelnut. It is so hard to use only 1 tbsp of each. 30 calories/5 g sugar each

    The carnation almond milk creamer is the tastiest of the almond milk creamers I have tried. It's still got calories, but since it's a treat and it looks like you are trying the almond milk, you might want to try it out. My favorite is the vanilla :smile:

    I don't drink coffee but I've seen a few ads for something called Leaner Creamer that seems to be growing in popularity.

    I was literally just drooling over this at Wal-Mart the other day! I reeeeaaally wanted to get it but wasn't sure how it would taste, so it's great to know that some people here have tried it and liked it too!

    I drink my coffee with heavy whipping cream and a half scoop of chocolate protein for sweeter.

    Why put anything in it and spoil the perfect taste of coffee?

    I always take my coffee black, no sugar.

    I use half & half, 1 splenda and s/f coffee syrup (caramel, French vanilla or whatever is on hand) as well as a dash of cinnamon. Nice and tasty

    Cold brew and cashew milk....cashew milk tends to be thicker and creamier than almond. I don't use any sweetener but I do sometimes use sugar in the raw packets (20 cal/5g carbs) and makes it just sweet enough without the aftertaste of stevia.
