My favorite way to take coffee is usually just cream. However, if it is a coffee that I have not tried before I will drink it black at first to decide whether it needs the cream. I would rather have the option of adding cream if I need it, than making the mistake of putting cream in when it doesn't need it and ruining the experience.

Lately I've been trying the "bulletproof" coffee with coconut oil and butter. Sounds odd, but it really is flavorful. Other than that, I usually add half and half with Stevia. What about you?
Most of the time I take hard and Black fresh coffee.

It depends on my mood. If I haven't had coffee for some time, I like it strong, bitter, and very black - like an Italian or a French roast. But, I drink coffee quite often so I usually drink it with a lot of milk and I've started adding sugar to keep my energy level up. I use distilled water and that has no or very little minerals. I drank breve's for awhile, which is basically a latte made with half and half instead of milk. A little like melted ice cream. I have to quote from the film "The Edge" when Alec Baldwin explains that he can't kill Anthony Hopkins, because then he'd have to kill the witness, Stephen, who happens to be the only one who knows how he likes his coffee, and he likes his coffee like he likes his women, "bitter and murky". Apparently this was from Wayne's World also, years before. And who knows where else, years before that.

At breakfast time take pure black coffee and make my eyes bright, fresh me, give new energy. But at afternoon I take white coffee, cappuccino, or with mocha. So, I have got more kinds and flavor of coffee, I enjoyed so much.

Bold Italian full bodied or Ethiopian dark roasts are loved by all. Cafe Verona or Kimono Dragon work great for evening events, but Starbucks original Pike Place or Blonde Roast house blends are strong, low-calorie flat black regulars while I'm running to the train for work. I don't have time for the barista to make me a complex shake in the mornings. I like that they ethically source, and Cafe Direct and Equal Exchange do as well. Higher Ground organically raise their beans, which makes for an earthy taste I like, though I'm excited to try Grumpy Mule when it arrives, as it's Peruvian, and the coffee there is amazing. They use local indigenous versions of papaya and citrus and chocolate that makes for this light, rich, sweet flavor I haven't found anywhere else. It's like Pumpkin Spice, but with rich velvet chocolate mousse or fruity desert wine flavors. No barista in the states knows what I'm talking about, but if you can find it, it's so tasty!

Black, like my soul.

Just kidding. I usually have it iced, with almond milk and two packets of stevia, I also put some cinnamon and vanilla, but if I have to pull an all-nighter, I make it hot with just the almond milk and a packet of stevia.

With milk and no sugar.
Somtimes I add caramel if I feel like something more sweety.
Or black coffee with a piece of chocolate or some biscuits.

I don't usually drink coffee because, I don't know why, but I get dizzy and stomachache from certain brands of coffee here. But I do drink organic coffee. They are cheaper and healthier. :)

I love my coffee dark and bitter.. I can never handle any type of sweetners in it, however milk is bearable sometimes. My everyday coffee is Turkish coffee as I am an Arab and I live in Turkey. I like cappuccino too.
