How do you like your coffee?
Or.. what's your standard drink order at Starbucks?
Re: How do you like your coffee?
For coffee, I like 2 splenda & fat free half & half.
At Starbucks, I typically order a Grande Triple Skinny Vanilla or Hazelnut latte.
My standard order at Starbucks is a caffe misto with ff milk and two pumps of cinnamon dolce. I also like there ice coffee or chia tea latte.
My morning coffee at home is dunkin donuts flavored coffee and almond milk. I keep meaning to make coffee to use for ice coffee but never get around to it.
How is it that my BABY is going to be 3?

Home: Joffrey's Jamaican me crazy w/Italian Cream creamer
Hotels/Restaurants: Black
with half and half only, unless it's office petrol, and then it better have a lot of sugar to mask the nastiness.
At Starbucks, iced caramel macchiato or coffee frappuccino, or in the winter, peppermint mocha.
"My 101 List - Updating asap, I swear!
I cannot wait for this! I loooooove peppermint mochas on cold evenings
I only tend to buy Starbucks during the holiday season when the gingerbread lattes are available. So I get a gingerbread latte, no fat, no whip and 2 splenda packets.
Coffee at home I do 2 scoops of sugar and some milk.
I'm a coffee snob.....
-If it's good coffee (Drowsy Poet only!): I like it black.
-If it's my every day at the office coffee (Folgers): half a tsp of sugar, about a tbl of creamer....I go by color. Don't really measure.
-If I'm going to a coffee shop.....I like frappes. I'm not a huge fan of Starbucks, but I do like their coconut mocha frappe.
Skinny Vanilla Latte or Caramel Frap from Starbucks.
I have experimented with iced coffee at home, but haven't found the right mix.
CD- wanna share any tips, since Ashlee is not worried about coffee currently?
For iced coffee? I usually just take the carafe after its cooled down & throw it in the fridge (Bad, CD, I know).
But I want to try this soon: http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2011/06/perfect-iced-coffee/
That looks aaah-mazing. On my sister's recent Africa trips, they use sweetened condensed milk.....pretty much b/c it's easier to keep and transport. She raved about it, so we'll use it from time to time at home now. It's yummy in coffee.
Day to day is decaf with a splash of french vanilla creamer. I prefer my coffee more milky with a hint of sweet.
From Starbucks - white chocolate mocha with soy, whipped cream and almost a full packet of splenda
At home - hot milk, instant coffee and two packets of splenda
I'm not very discriminating when it comes to coffee. It mostly depends on my mood. In restaurants, I take it black 1 sugar. At home I use folgers, sometimes iced sometimes hot. I either put sugar, truvia, or hazelnut creamer in it. I love hazelnut coffee.
At Starbucks, some of my faves are soy chai latte, pumpkin spice, gingerbread, hazelnut. Cold I like iced venti caramel macchiato upside down, and the mocha coconut frapp, mmm.
I only do starbucks in a pinch in the afternoons if I'm heading to an appt, then I usually get iced coffee.
At home and every single morning, I like a dark roast brewed strong with fat free hazelnut creamer.
