I take mine black, cold, and as fast as possible. Afterwards, I take a packet or teaspoon or what have you of sugar to kill the aftertaste.

Coffee, nectar of the morning gods!

Most of the time I drink my java light and sweet (2 sugars/half & half, with a dash of cinnamon sugar). I also do the other caffeine morning stuff of tea (Early Grey straight) or hot chocolate (made with cream and cocoa, whipped cream on top). It depends on the mood.

There's nothing but a nice cup of coffee in the morning, with sugar of course. And very hot.

I repeat that at least one more time during the day.

I don't drink coffee.

I just take anything that's hot, wet and coffee flavoured any way I can.

(Except decaf.....wait a minute, I said coffee flavoured )

Greatest cafe a few blocks over. Make the best Mocha you will ever have. Or, if its night I'll take a frappacino or a flavored latte from Starbucks. Straight bugs me, but I'll take it if thats it.

hmm... sound like a caffeine addiction?

Did you know that Starbuck's and Dunkin Donuts but their coffee from the same source? It's just different blends of the same beans....

Oh, coffee, that black nectar who wakes us up in the morning!!!

And in the afternoon!!!

And sometimes in the evening as well!!!

Coffee is one of my passions. I drink two at least every day. I like it the most black, with two teaspoons of sugar, and with no haste. But I can drink it white, or a capuccino.

I take it black, and in great quantitieS

Usually, I take it black... usually, however, means whenever I am trying to wake up. If I'm awake already, I like a coffee blended with ice, or one with lots of flavored cream. I have to admit, though, that there is a certain charm to a straight black cup of coffee... It seems like it symbolizes the American working man. Not those business or cubicle types, mind you, but people who work with their hands, and their minds... not with their egos; people like that go to starbucks and grab the latest $40 coffee. Not to say flavored coffees and such are bad, as I generally like them. However, there seems to be too much Starbucks culture going on, impatient and superfluous people who really just need to sit down and have a nice, black cup of joe. And read a book, preferrably not one of the latest high-tech thrillers, but classic literature. Like Potok, or Dante, of Keats. Hell, why not? I realize I'm rambling... but I can't stop. I just wish people regarded privately owned coffee shops as highly as they used to.

People just don't seem to want to sit down and mingle anymore. Everyone's always too busy, worrying about their own selfish desires rather than worrying about what's important... like the pursuit of the arts, or of knowledge. I used to live near a nice little private coffee shop, where people came to talk, and to debate, and to learn over coffee and a smoke. I met a man there once who was teaching himself Japanese... You don't see that anymore. I used to go down there with my sketchpad and just draw, draw until I thought the world was melting through my hands, and I had become a part of a microculture rich in its diversity and knowledge. Now, there are too many cold glances, too much rage, too much want to blame it on the other guy. If I bumped into a person at the old coffee shop, it was something to laugh about... and perhaps gain a friend over. If I were to do the same at a Starbucks, I'd get yelled at, and then the person would walk off in a frenzy of self-absorbtion... not realizing that the person they bumped into could be a friend or a lover. It's sad really, what people don't realize they're missing in life.

Anyways, that strayed off topic more than once, and I apologize. But it's my belief that places like Starbucks are killing this world... nobody can handle coffee so black it wakes the hell out of you. People search to make things less strong, and to make it less difficult to detect subtle nuances that give life, and coffee, its flavor.

Black. Black as my heart. Just kidding. I actually dump in loads of milk and sugar.

Starbucks Caramel frapuccino with Vanila sauce. It is great before school.

Black without sugar, one cup when I get up in the morning and one mid morning. Then I go onto water until about eight or nine PM when I have a glass or two (or so....) of wine. I used to drink a lot more coffee until I found out it was what made me hyper all day! As for the heat - well I always mean to drink it hot but I tend to get distracted and...

In Canada we have a nice chain of coffee shops called Tim Hortons. The French Vanilla flavored capuccino they make is quite possibly one of the best cups of coffee you can get on the go.

However when Im at home I prefer to brew my own.. I dont believe in the coffee machine though. I use a french press. I enjoy hazulnut and vanilla flavored coffees but other than that, generally like to drink two espresso in the morning, one after lunch, and one with dinner. Theres something about that dark black super-caffinated drink that is so sophisticated feeling, mm I love it.

...i had a coffee an hour ago and right now its 3:05am in melbourne...im fine...quite awake

mines a little weird

3 spoonfulls of coffee
2 spoonfulls of sugar
a tiny bit of milk, the rest is coffee....yes...i am awake...and yes...it probably is weird, being only 14, i wouldnt know.

I'm not much of a coffee drinker. I prefer tea in the morning and late in the afternoon. Light milk and two spoonfuls sugar.

2 sugar

I drink coffee in the morning, after lunch, and after dinner. And of course, being Italian, I drink espresso. Although at times I don't mind the so-called American coffee, especially in winter, when outside it's really cold
I used to drink coffee with one or even two spoonfuls of sugar, but now I drink it black, and with no sugar at all. And I also drink yerba mate, if any of you know what I am talking about

My morning usually consists of one cup (12-16 oz. depending on how much change I have in the pocketes....presssiousss) of decaf coffee. I used to drink large amounts of caffeinated coffee, but it bugs my stomach now so I drink the decaf. Water dominates the remainder of my working day, with a steady switch to tea beginning around 5 pm.

I drink my coffee as hot as possible and black as tar. I too use a French press when drinking at home and I grind my own beans as well. It has increased the enjoyment factor hugely by slowing down the time it takes to make it, filling the apartment with the earthy undertones of far away mountain sides.

Well said ArtKing, well said. My fiance doesn't drink coffee and doesn't get it sometimes, but Saturday and Sunday mornings, when the world (including her...usually until about 11:30) still sleeps, I get up and make coffee, and then I read the paper, or the Guardian Weekly, or the Atlantic Monthly, or a book (depending on my mood) and savor a cup of coffee.

coffee...I usually get frappachinos. but if not, usually something sweetened with cream.

i take coffe black with tabassco ® in it so that its spicy, and tehrefore not coffee anymore (in all seriousness, i do!)

what do all the people who drink starshmuks crappucino out there say to that?

I really don`t know what to say...except I`m intolerant to spicy anything.

Black and hot-freshly brewed in my undying 12-year-old four cup Mr. Coffee maker, with copious amounts of ice cubes. Just like my... (couldn't resist!).

Black as death, hot as hell and w/ two shots of Jack

I'm not really into coffee yet (I'm still only 15). I have heard that coffee slows the aging process, maybe a good idea.

Ëlwe

Yes, it is a little known fact that the first elf in Middle Earth brewed a pot of coffee so fresh and so pure that Elves became immortal.... then starbucks came and ruined it........ bastards
