I grind my own beans, usually French Roast, black most of the time. On the rare occasion that I have whipping cream in the house before whipping it I will slip a little bit of that in my coffee. No sweetener, though.

DH roasts and grinds our beans at home. We brew in a French Press, we don't even own a drip coffee maker.

I only drink my coffee black and I can not drink Starbucks! Their coffee is terrible, way over roasted (burnt) and old.

Not to mention their nonsensical cup size names. I mean, venti? I'm pretty sure that means twenty in Italian... not to mention 'small' and 'tall' are quite the opposite.

I add cream somtimes -- I find I need it in flavored coffees or else they taste weird, and it's a way to make bad coffee taste a little better (at meetings, seminars, etc). The rest of the time I drink it black.

I agree with everyone else on Starbucks, their coffee is gross, tastes like drinking ashes... even if I add cream AND sweetener I can't stand it. Which means that if I even enter a Starbucks, I must have plans to get a creamy, sugary, espresso-based drink. So I just stay out.

I am not a huge coffee person, but most often when I drink it, it's some sort of double-triple-quadrule-shot espresso thing! Half the time, I put nothing in it, and the other half, I will put a little bit of Irish cream or hazelnut creamer and a packet of Splenda.

I like foofy coffees, too... those flavored ones with whipped cream on top commonly found at Starbucks If only they weren't so high in calories and sugar.

What is this pumpkin flavouring people keep talking about? I don't know what it is - and have never heard of it before... .

Baileys, on the other hand, I have heard of ;D

I like mine sweet; one tablespoon of Coffee-mate - whichever flavor I feel like - and two packets of Splenda.

1 cup of coffee at home in the morning with Creme Brulee flavored Coffeemate.

After my morning eye opener, I switch to fragrant teas. Jasmine is my favorite now that it's cooler tho I was partial to a cranberry melange over the summer that made an incredible iced tea.
