    Not really the answer to your question.

    I dont drink coffee, but I mix unsulphered blackstrap molasses 1 tbsp and flax seed oil 1 tbsp with a little rice milk 1/2 cup. And it gets my morning started.

    That sounds yummy!! I rarely drink coffee but have been drinking it black when I do because I just don't know what I can put in it. Those are all good ideas :)

    I drink it black. But I do enjoy dipping Peanut butter sandwiches into it. Yum!

    I really try to avoid coffee when I can and for a while now have been set on drinking green tea. The ways I used to make my coffee healthier:

    1) coconut milk/cream (instead of the creamers in the dairy department that tend to be fattening)
    2) Cinnamon (not with the coconut milk!! but if I didn't have the coconut milk)
    3) organic cocoa powder


    When I go to Starbucks and get a latte or capp I ask for it unsweetened and then I add stevia.

    Stevia and real organic half and half. I know some don't consider 'clean' but I consider it clean bc no chemicals like the other ones do. I don't put a ton just 2 tbsp if a strong brew then 3-4

    I use half and half cream in mine...I have gone down from 2 cream and 2 sugars to just a little bit of cream, but I can't let go of the cream! I just don't like it black, and I figure if that's the only thing I'm doing that's not so great, then I'm doing okay...

    You could use unsweetened almond milk, along with a packet of stevia? Or lowfat half and half, just check the ingredients!

    This is a tough one for me, I tried a few things and no luck it's just not the same, I use half and half which is still like 30 calories + or something and I have several cups a day working 12 hour day and night shifts and having 4 kids, anyways, this morning I tried organic coconut milk which is only 5 calories and I was really leary thinking it would be sweet (I don't use sugar) but it's not and it's just fine, I think I am switched :)

    I rarely drink coffee, but when I do I drink it black. I suppose the main reason for that is so that I don't love the taste so much that I drink it when I don't need it.

    Just a splash of whole milk and a half a teaspoon of sugar.

    I only have one cup in the morning so still use milk but I measure out two tablespoons. Then I switch to tea. If I do a starbucks I do non fat.

    I drink coffee black, aside from the occasional latte. Honestly, I would like to drink whole milk lattes all the time, but if I want one, and only have the calories for skim, then that is what I have.
  • 1/2 scoop French Vanilla Whey Protein Powder mixed well with Unsweetened Vanilla Almond Milk first thing in the am. mmmm...

    Usually just black coffee, but if I want to spend the time, I'll add stevia and unsweetened original almond milk.

    So Delicious Coconut French Vanilla is my favorite too. I tried plain and the hazelnut, but prefer the French Vanilla in my coffee. Recently I added it to my Chia Tea and loved the combo.
