Coffee Poll

[hmaria1609]

I put in a packet of Splenda or comparable name and add flavored cream to finish.
I get mine self-service at various gas stations or Dunkin Donuts.

We need another category in the poll: none of the above, or other.

I drink my coffee strong, fresh, hot, and always sitting down. I get the coffee from one particular store and use a mix that I select.  No flavored coffee for me.

Tea only for me.

I used to add honey or sugar, and cream or milk, but both of those categories* do not exist in my diet anymore, and I've both lost weight and felt better ever since.

I have several cups of tea a day, usually go through a large hot-water-heater-full of the water every couple hours while writing, reading, or teaching.

My mom and dad both drank coffee to extremes, and I just never liked the smell or acquired the taste for it.

*Exception; a tiny bit of honey to sweeten my cocoa in the AM, since I make it straight from unsweetened cocoa powder, and in a couple of dishes that would be too acidic without it, but otherwise...can't figure out why I didn't do this sooner.

Mostly black, but I have an oat milk that's quite tasty as well. When I add it, it's a splash.

I only drink cold brewed coffee to cut down on the acidity, so it's generally quite tasty either way.

Added.

I used to drink my milk with a little coffee, so to speak. Then 20 years ago, I did Atkins. Black coffee was free, everything else was regulated. So now I drink it black at home. Usually need cream at places like Starbucks though to cut the bitter, burnt taste.

For decades I drank it black.  Just this year I chanced to have on hand (for something else) some heavy cream and said, "What's it like with cream?"  And, you know, it's really good!

Has Philz Coffee made it to your parts of the world yet?

Once in every third blue moon I'll get a vanilla latte at QT.  Other than that, it's unsweetened iced tea, brewed at home in the Mr. Coffee tea machine--all day, all year.

I grew up in WA, so am required to be a coffee snob. Good, strong coffee with a little half and half. In the summer, I make my own cold brew concentrate and add quite a bit of milk to that.

[Harlow2]

Good Trader Joe's coffee ground in an expensive-but-worth-it grinder with cup 1/4 full 2% milk. Good black too.

[Larimar]

Gloria Jean's 'Macadamia Cookie' flavor here.

Thanks, EPW.

As I had mentioned up-thread, I drink my coffee strong. I also add half and half. Long ago, a friend who happens to be a physician suggested trying half and half because of my inability to digest milk. No more distress and no extra calories because you're adding just half of the dairy that you used to add in the past.

As for tea, I use tea leaves and boiling water. As with the coffee, the tea is drunk fresh, and while sitting down.

Puzzled--is that even mathematically possible?

Or...
