    Default So coffee?

    D you wake up and start guzzling this delight hot beverage to get your day going? Or are you someone who can spend the day without any?

    Myself lf I love the stuff. In fact I don't consider myself safe to thrive until I've had atleast a cup of this magic tonic in my system.

    Don't like coffee, never drink it

    Drank coffee once just to try it, and ended up spitting it out into a trash can. Tasted terrible. Tea tastes better, though not by much.

    I've tried coffee once or twice, but I've always found it too bitter for me. I have to struggle to finish a cup. I'm fairly lukewarm on hot drinks in the first place!

    I add heavy cream in mine. I have to be in a mood for black coffee. I have cut out sugar though! Yay!

    It depends, I'll have coffee if I am still a bit sleepy especially if I feel I don't have any energy. But mostly I have tea with leche and asukal to taste in the morning. But, I do love the aroma that coffee gives off.

    Coffee every day. Iced vanilla latte is my go-to drink, cream and sugar for regular coffee, or if I'm feeling extra fancy I'll get a triple espresso with a dollop of whipped cream.

    I basically got addicted to coffee once I had kids. Before, I would get the occasional Starbucks frappuccino, which is more of a milkshake than coffee. After the twins came I was getting one of those a day and needed to cut down since it was costing a ton of money and calories. So I switched to the less expensive iced coffee (I'm not a fan of hot beverages), and only added sugar free syrup and half & half to keep the carbs low. I eventually branched out and tried ice coffee at dozens of other shops, though Starbucks is still my main love. We also started brewing our own and I would ice it down and it has been pretty good.

    I used to not like hot beverages but recently I have been drinking the hot coffee at work since it's free and pretty good. I'm up to two cups a day, one in the morning to wake me up and one in the afternoon so that I'm in an energetic mood when I go home to play with my kids.

    I have a cup of coffee in the morning almost every morning. (95% of mornings)

    I got up to a spoon of sugar in my coffee over the years, and realized that's no good for health, so I'm slowly going back to black.

    Natural honey is is a good alternative.

    Can barely function without it. Dark roast black. Either via my french press at home (if I have time) or at the on-campus cafe.
