Coffee

I like my coffe strong with a shot of milk. No sugar.
I drink coffe only from big mugs, the most I prefer my yellow IKEA mug.
 
Black and strong, maybe with a little Stevia in it (natural sugar substitute).

I drink French roast exclusively at home, which makes most restaurant coffee taste very weak.

Black and strong, dark roasted beans. I am a coffee "cork sniffer". I only drink the good stuff.

Ditto on the brew and roast. I drink it often with some soy milk and sugar, or black. Black only if it is quality, and strong/thick enough. I prefer dark, meaty, rich, not acidic in quality.
 
Sumatra is my favorite variety. Very full-bodied and bold. I like it with some cream.

After reading this thread, decided to go black today. It is interesting how you can taste more flavors that way if the coffee is good. Marnold, Sumatra was the first true gourmet coffee I tried back when Starbucks was a small Seattle hippy coffee store and not corporate. Still a favorite. :beer:
 
I like cappachino especially english toffee. :)

(I don't know how to spell it guys)

:rotflmao: oooh, that's nasty :rotflmao:

I like strong, hot and black like Foxy Cleopatra :drool:

Tim Horton's is a staple in our house, but I do like the more "exclusive" blends when I can get my hands on them.
 
Black with splenda, but these days I am exploring the world of decaf after stepping back from the ledge of a 12 cup a day coffee habit. Here's an interesting fact, the contents of one of those 6-cup stovetop espresso makers fits neatly into one coffee mug. Ahhhhh... those were the days. Let me tell you the 5-day headache from the caffiene withdrawl was no fun, but not as bad as that guy in the movie Casino who Joe Peschi's character put in a vise.
 
I love the smell of coffee but I can't drink it. I'd be like one of those Spinal Tap drummers and spontaneously combust if I ever did.
 
I dont understand how you can drink that artificial sugar.. I cannot even drink Coca Cola light!

I don't do any of the artifical sweetners either...at least not anymore. I used to dring a lot of diet soda until I started researching Aspartame. The way that stuff was approved by US FDA for human consumption borders on criminal. Do a Google search on it sometime. It's some bad stuff...

The sweetner that I mentioned that I use is Stevia. It is all natural, and comes from a plant. It's been used extensively for well over one hundred years in South America, and tests have proven that there are no ill effects associated with it. But because of heavy pressure by the makers of Aspartame, Saccahrin, and Splenda, the US FDA won't even consider approving Stevia as a sugar substitute. They've only approved it as a "food additive" in an attempt to pacify those who have pushed for it's approval. So, the American public is denied a much safer (and far better tasting) sugar substitute, because of business lobbies.

I think Stevia is approved for use as a sweetener in most of Europe, SuperSwede. You should be able to find it to try there. I know it's approved for use in soft drinks in Japan and other Asian countries. I've heard that it's used in soda's over there regularly.

I havent heard about Stevia before, perhaps it goes under a different name here?

The swedish people are slowly revolting against artificial sweeteners, and more and more soft drink brands are offering "low sugar" alternatives to their soft drinks (no artificial sweetener, only lower sugar amount).
 
I drink mainly (Greek) frappe coffee :)
