A post about coffee (poll)
Do you drink it?
What do you add to it?
What's your favorite kind of coffee?
How much do you drink per day?
Re: A post about coffee (poll)
I drink it, but only occasionally. Almost never in the mornings - I reserve it as an after-work treat if I've had a bad day.
A little bit of Splenda and creamer.
My favorite coffee is DD. I also enjoy coffee that's French pressed. ETA: I'll usually order a cappuccino if I'm out, but if I'm at home I'll make a regular cup o'joe.
I average about a cup per week.
Bleck, I hate coffee. It tastes nasty. I never drink it, and I don't like coffee-flavored ice cream or tiramisu either.
Just add this to my long list of things everyone but smock likes.
Do you drink it? Yes
What do you add to it? just a little milk (enough to lighten it a little)
What's your favorite kind of coffee? I have a Keurig and my favorites are: Timothy's Cinnamon Pastry, Italian Blend and Sugar Bush Maple; Green Mountain's Nantucket Blend; Millstone's Hazelnut Cream. My favorite combo is to brew a cinnamon pastry with a hazelnut cream...YUM!
How much do you drink per day? I drink about 12 ozs in the morning and 6 oz in the evening after dinner (sometimes I'll have two cups after dinner instead of one).
ETA: I also like Starbuck's Breakfast Blend. The K-cups are quite a bit more for Starbuck's, so I only buy it once in a while.
1. Like it's my job.
2. Splenda and 2% milk
3. Green Mountain Colombian Fair Trade Select for K-Cups or a Bold Cafe Misto with extra foam from Starbucks
4. At least 5 cups (5 GIANT cups)

Regular coffee is gross. I never drink it. I'm an espresso snob. I need it to be strong!
Ready for this blasphemy? I think I miss my espressos and lattes more than wine.
Do you drink it? Very rarely. A couple of times a year.
What do you add to it? Soy milk, Splenda.
What's your favorite kind of coffee? I don't have a fave...I can't tell the difference between sh!tty Folgers and delicious Jamaican Blue Mountain.
How much do you drink per day? None. I drink chai most mornings, or some kind of herbal Celestial Seasonings stuff.

Do you drink it? yes. More now because we have a Keurig. Maybe one cup a day - if that.
What do you add to it? 1% and splenda
What's your favorite kind of coffee? No one in particular. I tend to drink Daybreak, though, in the mornings
How much do you drink per day? One cup at most.

I drink about one cup in the morning, but I used to load it with sugar and cream. Since I've been cutting out sugar, I'm down to one tablespoon of cream and that's it. I drank it black over the weekend and it actually wasn't bad, but it's definitely something I'm going to have to get used to. PPD - I'm starting to realize that the calories just aren't worth it either.
I've been drinking mainly hazelnuts/vanilla coffees. I am definitely a flavored coffee kind of girl.
Do you drink it? yes
What do you add to it? 2 packets of imperial sugar & milk
What's your favorite kind of coffee? Peet's major Dickason's blend or French roast. If it is just me drinking a cup I go for Folgers instant.
How much do you drink per day? 1 cup
Do you drink it? i do!
What do you add to it? creamer - french vanilla or peppermint mocha
What's your favorite kind of coffee? i'm not picky, as long as it's caffeinated.
How much do you drink per day? usually 2 big cups
Do you drink it? I'd mainline it if I could, but since I can't, yes, I drink it.
What do you add to it? I gave up artificial sweeteners, so just a little bit of sugar and a splash of half and half (naughty, I know, but I don't eat a ton of fat so I tell myself it's okay!).
What's your favorite kind of coffee? I like Trader Joe's dark roast, but I'm not really picky. If I'm getting coffee from a drive-thru, I like Dunkin best.
How much do you drink per day? Anywhere from two to four cups, probably more when I'm doing iced coffee.
I drink it most weekday mornings, usually about one cup sometimes closer to two. In my travel mug. I usually buy some kind of French Roast or Godiva Hazelnut Cream flavored. I add a metric shitton of 1/2 n 1/2 and creamer because I like my coffee like I like my men: thin, white, and delicate.
I too love the Nantucket Blend k-cups! My mommy bought me a giant box of them as part of my birthday present and I pretend-yell at H every time he uses one ("hey! stop drinking my PRESENT!").
Also I have to say, for me, the extra calories for half and half are ABSOLUTELY worth it. I'd rather skip some other food and be able to put a little cream in my coffee.
Do you drink it? I love coffee. It's one of my favorite things in the world and I slightly resent my cup each morning these days just for being decaf (stopped caffeine for my pregnancy).
What do you add to it?A little of some flavored creamer. Pumpkin spice is my favorite but that's seasonal so usually hazelnut.
What's your favorite kind of coffee? All of it. But I really like the special blend from a local place near where I work.
How much do you drink per day? Used to be at least two cups, now I just have one to get me started in the morning.

We miss you and love you always, little firecrackers!
I used to be a Half & Half person but made the switch to 2% a month or so ago and it's not such a big difference that missing those calories isn't worth it.
Speaking of which... it's time to get my 2nd cup! ::imoan runs to the kitchen::

Not just you. I hate coffee. I ordered an iced tea at dunkin donuts yesterday and they gave me a black iced coffee by mistake. I wasn't paying attention and drank some. Gross.

It's starting to grow on me. I used to love the smell, but hate the taste. I drink it now because it's overall more pleasant than having cramps all day- either from constipation or laxatives. It's getting much easier.
I only started drinking coffee because when I was a teller at a bank in my late teens/early 20's we could only have either coffee or tea in a coffee mug by our teller window. I didn't like it prior to that and it took a while to grow on me. Now I love it and it's one of the best parts of my day!
I have a cup every morning at work.
I typically add a tsp of sugar and some lactose free creamer.
At home, I drink Folgers breakfast blend.
On a typical day, I only have one cup. Its enough to get me going. If P had a particularly bad night, then I might get an extra cup.
This. I don't even like the smell of coffee.
Yes, I drink coffee every morning.
I add sugar.
Favorite kind of coffee is Starbucks, the dark-roast African kind. They don't sell it right now, which is ticking me off. We're making do with the medium-roast Kenyan, but it's not the same.
I usually drink 2-3 cups a day.
