How do you drink your coffee?

This is important, after all it's about coffee.

So, how do you drink it?

I use a lot of milk and either 1 sweetener or 2 sugars. People often comment on my coffee as I add between ¼ & 1/3 of the cup as milk.

Black. Like my men.

Wait. Strike that last part.

I like it hot, black and strong (just like my women)

White - no sugar.

I'm sweet enough as it is.

I confess a dirty secret...I actually like the pre-sweetened non-dairy creamer in my coffee (like Creamora). I know the stuff is evil, but a bit of it just takes the bitter edge off the coffee.

I drink my coffee like lots and lots of people in Southeastern Massachusetts: lots of milk. lots of sugar. often with flavoring and/or espresso shots. That type of coffee is so popular that all supermarkets carry a variety of brands and sizes of coffee milk syrup (you can get the most popular/classic brand, autocrat, by the gallon!).

I usually like mine iced, however.

Oh, good point, I enjoy a coffee with either Anisette or Kahlua. Probably about once a week that way.

Much milk, more sugar (or some kind of sweetened/flavored syrup).

I'm a big fan of the vanilla latte, is what I'm saying.

I like my sugar with coffee and cream.

Milk and sugar. I usually heat the milk until it foams a bit first, too, and kind of make a ghetto latte.

Coffee is the world's greatest liar: It smells great, and tastes like something that was passed through used, dirty muslin bags thrown out from the lube oil purifier.

When I joined the Navy I thought I'd learn to like coffee, since the benefits were so obvious, and the smell so great.

The only coffee I'd ever had that I liked was one of those General Foods Double Dutch Chocolate coffee mixes. And if I was going to go with that much cocoa, why poison it with coffee at all?

I don't do hot beverages. I don't do iced coffee, either.

I'm complicated.

I can take it with/out milk or sugar. As long as it's coffee.

I usually drink it with a nice dollop of coffeemate. My favorite is the vanilla caramel. That's if I make it at home. If I have to get coffee at the shit-tastic deli at school, I just get black. If I'm at a coffeeshop, I get a latte with a fun flavor like cherry or mint or whatever looks yummy. I refuse to patronize the godawful 'coffee' dispensers that have a powdered mix that mixes with water in the machine and splashes into your cup. Hell no.

I don't really drink coffee often enough to have a preference.

White. Good coffee, competently* made, with an actual dairy product in it.

Coffee is by its nature dark and bitter. Cream adds a velvety note that complements and rounds this out. Sweetener just fights against the coffee's inherent flavor profile and the resulting clash is unappealing to me.

*By which I mean decent coffee, not nasty cheap stale shit, and the proper ratio, e.g. two tablespoons of grounds for six ounces of water. Many godawful cups of coffee I've tasted were the result of ignoring one of these criteria.

I usually drink mine black and strong as possible. I can also drink it any temperature. So, I take my coffee like I've had my women, cold and bitter.



If it's from a public station in a waiting room or something, I'll load up on cream and sugar, otherwise I'm not getting my money's worth out of the free coffee.

Black, but with lots o' sugar. I have a real sweet tooth.

I'll take mocha when I can get it, too.

Every time I see this thread I think coffee sounds good, but I never have any.

I know. I'm really tempted to make a pot right now.

Of course that means, I'd have to clean out the coffeemaker since my roommate apparently was using the carafe for tea. Argh. DON'T LEAVE STAINING LIQUIDS SITTING AROUND

I just order it from restaurants or coffee stands. I very, very rarely make or drink it at home.

I like my coffee like I like my men: hot, strong, sweet and blonde.

I fill a 15 oz. mug with ~13 oz. of coffee, ~2 oz. of milk and two packets of Splenda or Truvia.

I like my coffee as I like my women; picked by migrant workers.

Or, you know, black and strong.
