As the soon-to-be Mrs. Coffee, i had to correct the spelling of the thread title.


Cafe' Latte with a 1/2 shot of hazelnut either blended w/ ice or hot. The best is at the local coffee shot down here called "It's a Grind".

Continue on.

That is the wanna-be coffee drinker slogan. Those of us who like Starbucks COFFEE and ESPRESSO are different, and one of my pet peeves are the people who say they love Starbucks coffee but won't get anythign other than a frappuccino (which I can't stand cause they're too sweet...ugh)

Anyway, I am a coffee snob, and will happily admit it. I put a bit of sugar in it (if it's available) and then milk. Black is alright, but I really like the milk in it.
When you're talking espresso drinks, it's a grande latte with an extra shot (or two) made with two percent or nonfat milk, and with two pumps of hazelnut syrup instead of four. Yes, I am picky.

Someone told me soda stunts your growth. Well, I'm almost 5'11"...stunted much?

I find coffee disgusting. But I like the smell, so it makes me happy that my roommates are addicts.

That's too bad. But hey, at least you can smell it!

Black with a little creamer. I can stand the frappucinos and other coffee shop whatnot, but i don't count it as real coffee (i mean, come on, some of my friends buy FROZEN "coffee"). Decent to drink, just not coffee. Perhaps another version of an Icee?

If so, with the way kids especially drink it, then stopping the drinking of soda would result in a population of 8' tall people.

I had just about the best mocha of my life earlier this evening.

Wow. And I thought I was picky.

Recently, I've come to like my double shot lattes with a little bit of Irish Cream flavouring. I like my plain espresso or americanos to be straight-up, and I prefer cream and a little sugar in my brewed coffee. I'm not that picky, though.

[redbaron]

to all the previous posts "black with some sugar" or "black with some milk" THATS NOT BLACK AT ALL!

black is plain coffee, which is the only kind of coffee i'll drink (though i like frappacinos because they taste like coffee ice cream, which i adore).

However, i refuse to drink coffee in the united states. Why you might ask? Simply, bitter, crappy coffee. In the US, most of our beans come from south America, which have a more bitter bean than say african beans. Also, you go to places like starbucks, tully's, etc, and they actually BURN the beans. Coffee beans should be a rich brown, NOT black.

FWIW when i'm in continental europe i drink coffee like it's going out of style. Here in the US i can't stand the crap.

Ah well, there's always my stash of imported tea.

I have to have a lot of milk in mine. Not cream, necessarily, but milk. And I like organic free-trade coffee for the principal of it. (Well, and it usually tastes better to me, too. )
