Do you like coffee, if so what kind? Sugar/cream/cappuccino give me the scoop! I’m trying to expand my breakfast drink horizons.

    Just saying...I drink the Keurig cappuccino mixes. It’s not healthy...loaded with the good stuff but it’s my only vice...well that and a drink here and there.

    I’m all about the coffee. Bought a Nespresso machine for the office so I can have coffee all day long. I prefer my extra calories for a glass of wine in the evenings, so just a small splash of milk or chocolate milk in my coffee. 🙂

    I live for coffee. Preferably a dark roast and I will take it as is, black.

    I love the taste of it when mixed with certain flavored creamers, but am currently in the process of giving up caffeine for better health.

    I can't stand when people joke around about being unproductive zombies before having a cup. Make cute of it all you want, but that's just your withdrawals from the drug known as caffeine.

    On that note – has anyone here been bold enough to try civet coffee?

    Currently have 5 coffee beans to choose from daily so, yes...coffee. I take mine with some milk, no sugar.

    I prefer black but, last year, my dentist basically told me I was messing up my mouth's Ph balance and that my spit was acidic 😭

    I have a special, overly expensive toothpaste now and add 1-2 tbsp of milk to my 2 or 3 cups of coffee per day so that my spit is no longer venomous 🐍

    If you don't have these sad problems, black coffee is the way to go so that you taste all the notes.

    Cafestol in coffee has been found to improve insulin sensitivity.

    In 2020, 34.2 million Americans—just over 1 in 10—have diabetes. 88 million American adults—approximately 1 in 3—have prediabetes.Feb 11, 2020

    National Diabetes Statistics Report, 2020 | CDC

    Previous studies have found that drinking coffee... compounds in coffee have improved the markers of T2.

    I drink my coffee black. We grind our beans fresh every morning. We have a "daily drinker" which is Kirkland Whole Bean Blend medium roast. For "occasions" we have several different varieties of beans from the local coffee bean place down the road from us.

    IMO, good coffee doesn't need anything and when you add stuff to good coffee, you're taking away from the actual flavor profile of the bean you are drinking.

    French press user here. We grind when we can get beans and I make a ratio of one scoop flavored coffee to 3 scoops regular ground coffee. Sugar and half and half if I can get it, or full fat milk.

    Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
