    Default how do you usually drink your coffee?

    in the mornings I drink it mostly black with a bit of milk and no sugar. later in the day I'll drink it with a bagel or another semi-sweet pastry.

    LOL I loved this! I've worked many years as a barista (quitting--again--soon!) and I am primarily a black coffee drinker. And the description is rather true lol.

    Usually black or with creamer. Usually black these days. Powdered creamer isn't good for you.

    I love coffee. Sometimes I take it with a bit of cream sometimes not. Sometimes cold depending on how hot it's out

    I'm constantly looking to align the real with the ideal.I've been more oriented toward being overly idealistic by expecting the real to match the ideal. My thinking side is dominent. The result is that sometimes I can be overly impersonal or self-centered in my approach, not being understanding of others in the process and simply thinking "you should do this" or "everyone should follor this rule"..."regardless of how they feel or where they're coming from"which just isn't a good attitude to have. It is a way, though, to give oneself an artificial sense of self-justification. LSE

    I have cut back on coffee again but I drink it with a splash of milk, a little sugar, oxiracetam (for my brain), higenamine (for my breathing since I am a shallow breather), yohimbine (for extra energy) and various other powdered supplements. If I don't supplement it I feel like I have taken in empty calories and I crash pretty fast. That's was why I was drinking so much before I started adding to it.

    They say it takes 21 days to form a new habit. That is about how long I had to make a conscious choice to use them but now I can almost do it half asleep. If I am still "dreaming" I might get my doses wrong and have to start over. I will also put the sugar in the fridge and the milk in a cabinet but I realize my mistakes quickly.

    All black. Usually french-pressed.

    One of many "right" ways to drink coffee.

    i used to tell people that my coffee should taste like coffee as little as possible. they laughed as if it was a joke but i remained deadpan. it was the truth.

    somewhat recently i've had a change of heart and started drinking it straight black as part of a set of health promoting lifestyle changes.

    That's "other."

    I drink coffee vicariously. (Someone next to me drinks it and I imagine how awful it must taste.)

    Black 90% of the time. Black with a packet of Stevia the other 10%.

    Other implies you have an "other" preference in drinking your coffee. I don't drink it at all.

    admittedly i don't really like coffee. but i want to like it. and i love caffeine. there are also 1001 positive associations in my mind with coffee. i go through a lot of coffee phases or drinking my coffee differently, mainly because i don't like coffee, and so i have to change it up a lot. currently i've been drinking a lot of lattes and mochas and wasting money. it's like $3.50 for one of these drinks. i don't know when i'll change it up again or what i will change it to.

    i kind of like coffee + coconut milk. i mean for now. really i just think i find new ways to like coffee, until i realize that i don't like it that way either. this is just the way it is when one doesn't really like coffee. but i like the idea of coffee, so i can't let go of it. and i need the caffeine. sadly.

    as much as i would like to, no can do black coffee...it's just too bitter (and too hot!)

    After drinking coffee + soymilk or almond milk for the past 2 years, I actually think it tastes better than coffee + dairy milk or cream (I recently tried it again).

    Powdered milk is DISGUSTING. And it does nothing to temper the hot temperature of black coffee.

    Liquid coffee mate is ok. It being made primarily of soybean oil kind of grosses me out though.

    I've had coconut milk in my coffee...it's very very good. But a bit too rich for me.
