Coffee Drinkers UNITE!

[Guest]

My newest preferred coffee prep is milk or half n half without sugar. (I've been cutting down a lot of sugar and bread lately, which has made milk sweet enough.)

 

I think this is going to be it for a while. Drinking about two hot in AM and an afternoon iced, because my ACless NYC home has been hitting 87 inside last few days

I know the struggles of NY having lived there for over 20 years.

 

But I've never been big on iced coffee. Tried it a while ago and it was pretty good, but seems as though the ladies love it for some reason. Do you think it has crack cocaine in it?

I drink about 2 Mugs a day. My favorite is KOPIKO instant brown coffee...I dunno why, but I like the taste way more than when I have to brew the cup myself.

Cold and creamy or bubbeling (figuritivly speaking) black, don't know, don't care. It's all good and yummy. That and it's my gonna sit down and drink, so I make sure to have a pot.....or two. Ehe

I am thinking of going back for a second cup, might bust open the hazelnut.

Beans with added flavour are great, still drink it totally black but it adds something extra, really good.

[Guest]

Gonna go pour a cup right now!

It's so cute the way you Americans think you can Coffee.

I wouldn't really say im a coffee drinker, but I wouldn't mind a cup now and then.  I can never drink coffee without being sweet though, coffee is way to bitter and stuff without sugar or cream

 

(I hope imma not the only pony who gets this )

So German coffee is definitely more bitter, getting used to it though.

So, I don't often eat sweet cereal, but we had some Frosted Flakes in the house. Having run out of eggs, I poured myself the last of the box. So because it's too sweet...I put about 10-15 tablespoons of cold coffee in the milk, and mixed with the sugar of the flakes....

 

It was like I was eating cereal with coffee ice cream! 

 

This is a dangerous discovery, as sugary cereal is no bueno. I must mark this here for posterity and then quickly forget about the joy and deliciousness I just experienced.

 

For the good of mankind, do NOT eat delicious coffee laced Frosted Flakes.

So Germans drink a lot of coffee, but they don't really do as much "sweet" coffee here. So like you mostly get sugar, but like creamer is totally different.

I drink whatever coffee I can get. I really like Don Francisco's Hawaiian Hazelnut because it tastes and smells really good. I generally drink black coffee since that's just what we get on the job. At home I like to add some O'mara's Irish Cream or some whiskey after a hard day's work.

 

I'm from Western Washington so coffee is just another form of water to me.

[PiratePony 8,475]

It's been too long since the coffee drinking crew united.

 

So I've pretty much been on 1/2 coffee to 1/2 milk ratio, the classic "cafe au lait" mix, and it's perfect. No sugar is needed at all, and the bitterness of the coffee and the natural creaminess and sweetness of whole milk dance together to create the perfect waking up elixir. 

 

However, i tried that with my father-in-law's Starbucks keurig pods...still too bitter and needed sugar for that, but I don't like Starbucks as a rule. 

[Guest]

I have to remember to grab more creamer when I go to my father-in-law's house today. I ran out and Germany doesn't do a lot of creamer the way I like it. .3.

I will probably be murdered for saying this, but I have a particular fondness for Starbucks' Seattle Latte cold coffee. I only like coffee when it's mostly milk anyway, and those Seattle Lattes have exactly the right amount of milk, sugar, and coffee.

[Guest]

Any coffee I can get, seriously. As long as it's coffee, I'm fine with it. Though there are some I do tend to enjoy less, it's nothing major.

I should have posted this here and feel ashamed -- for you US goers.

 

7-11 had Free Coffee Week. With the 7-11 mobile app, you could fill up any size cup of coffee, have them scan your app barcode, and leave with free coffee. 

 

Also with the app, every cup of coffee you buy is like a "punch card" and every 7th cup is free. And this counted for the free coffee. So if you got 6 cups of free coffee....you earned a free coffee.

 

So, it may be over, but they run deals like that all the time - even yesterday extra large coffee was $1 with the app. And every 7th cup is free, which includes sodas and slurpees in that mix. They don't differentiate. So it's worth getting. 

 

At 7-11, there are about 5 types of coffee, plus you fill it yourself, and there is a refrigerated area with milk, half and half, cream, and a variety of flavored creamers, plus there are syrup pumps with different popular flavors like vanilla and pumpkin spice - so you can really do it up any way you like.

 

Or if you're of the more piratical sort, you can fill an extra large cup up with half & half, boop it as your free coffee and stock your house that way....but I would never encourage that sort of thing. Deplorable.

I think coffee establishments should take better advantage of exams week...

So I made an interesting discovery the other day - Krispy Kreme cafés (at least in the U.K.) do surprisingly good coffee. So, you get to combine coffee with doughnuts . Also, with their app, you can get free doughnuts/coffees from time to time too

[Sunwalker 981]

That's how you open a portal to the coffee dimension

I will go for just about any coffee that is medium and up. Cannot stand mcdonalds though just doesn't taste right. And since my gf works at Starbucks in target I've learned to like them from the free samples. My mug is usually halloween cups lol.

[gamecubeguy214 2,512]

Anyone tried the chili latte from Starbucks? It tastes nice and the idea of spicy coffee works pretty well.

[KiraTakahashi 748]

Dudes green tea latte from star bucks is great too. Go to vanilla soy milk makes it even better.

I've come to the conclusion that Starbucks is my favorite coffee. What does everyone think of Starbucks?

[Puddle Duck 142]

I love Tim Horton's Iced Capp. For warm weather drinking I have a chai tea latte with cinnamon dolce syrup from Starbucks. Other than that I'll drink most any coffee so long as I have sugar and milk or creamer. Black coffee upsets my stomach. The only coffee I won't drink is the nightmare stuff my mother-in-law buys for guests. That stuff was unforgivably horrible.
