I like it really strong and with milk and 1 sugar... When I make coffee strong like I like it,,, peeps tell me it's like poison or something to that effect,I say they are not really coffee drinkers ,,,but by the same token using milk and sugar Peeps say I'm not the real coffee drinker...

So how do you like your coffee and here in Jersey coffee with milk and sugar is called a regular,,,what do you call it where you are from???

I'm not much of a coffee connoisseur, but when I drink it I like it slightly weak and with lots of cream and sugar. My husband and my mom always make fun of me and say things like, "Having a little coffee there with your cream and sugar"? That's the way my grandmother let me drink it when I was little--real sweet and creamy--and my tastes never changed. I don't know what that's called here in Texas. Coffee with cream and sugar, I think. But it might have a name at Starbucks.

The truth is I prefer tea. Preferably a nice Indian-style chai tea with milk, sugar and cardamom. I know that's another question, though.

Is a latte the one with all the foamy milk? Yeah, that's my style more than dark coffee for sure.

Yep, that's my kind of drink, then. With about three heaping teaspoons of sugar stirred in. . . .

Lattes are good but,,, if I was at STB's I would get the espresso with a lemon peel... if I had a choice on Latte or Hot Cocoa,,,I'm going Cocoa...

Oh F Yeah

Teaspoon or so of sugar and some milk/cream/creamer.

Ever wonder if......in all the cups of coffee you've ever drank..... if you ever had the exact ssame number of sugar granuals twice?

I'd definitely choose cocoa over latte any day, too. Samwhore told me to try Starbucks' hot chocolate since I'm not enough of a coffee drinker to pay what they charge for coffee, but a girlfriend here told me the hot chocolate was real thick and dark and heavy. I wonder if they'd do up a latte version of hot chocolate for people like me who like drinks a little more diluted? I don't like strong, heavy chocolate, either. The truth is, I think I like most all drinks a little weak, whether it's tea, coffee, juice or hot chocolate.

OK, this discussion has given me a very strange craving, but I'm about to go indulge it. I suddenly had the strongest urge to drink some bloody mary mix without the vodka. Maybe it was the word "juice" up above that set me off.

I'l take the cup, fill the bottom with about 1/4 inch of sugar, and use VERY strong coffee. I prefer MillStone, or StarBucks coffee beans. I like to grind em myself. That way it's always fresh, and has a wonderful coffee flavour. I don't use regular cream, but I'll sometimes use a little baily's to liven it up a bit, but only on rare occasions.

I get made fun of, too lol. Always th e same comment, "You want a little coffee in that sugar"

Honestly, it gets old.. ..

I like my coffee in potpourris! Love the smell, but it tastes like burnt toast to me! (Don't mind me, I was hit in the head with a hammer as a child.) Give a good cup of tea, any day!

I drink one cup of coffee a day from the donut shop around the corner from my house. As soon as I walk in, the nice lady always knows my order (large coffee). So, I never have to ask for it. But I put cream and a splenda in it.
