What's In Your Coffee?

[BigDog]

Mine: 2 packets aspartame, 1 packet saccharin and 2 tsp non-dairy creamer. Yes, I like my coffee sweet but I also drink out of a monster mug. I know the creamer should go, but I love it. So, what's in your joe?

[smuggie]

Cream, splenda and sugar twin.

I drink flavoured coffees a lot, but when I drink coffee made with unflavoured beans I often add extracts.

[BigDog]

I've noticed Splenda seems to be the sweetener of choice around here. Is it solely taste or is there another reason?

[JJ29]

stevia

For me it's taste as well as the reviews/critics claim it't the most harmless.

That is all I add to my coffee (Splenda).

[jackieleigh]

just stevia

[Patricia]

Just various art. sweenters....I mix it up...:lol:

[Brandi]

Usually booze.

:funny: Just kidding. Usually a SF flavor. Like coconut.

[Pandora]

Soy creamer and a little stevia if I want sweetener.

Cinnamon sticks or grated mexican chocolate. :morning:

[tsunamii]

s/f torani syrup- i like vanilla or coconut

[absolut_blonde]

Just a splash of skim milk. Though I drank it black today-- I missed my Tim Horton's so much while in Europe that I didn't even care about the lack of milk.

[Blondell]

CAFFEINE!! :woohoo:

[smuggie]

CAFFEINE!! :woohoo:

You must spread some Reputation around before giving it to Blondell again.

[Blondell]

Just skim milk for me. What's stevia??
Stevia is a cal free, all natural sweetener.

[Patricia]

I like to add cinnamon now, too...
but, I have never added milk or cream....doesn't taste much like coffee after that...:unsure:

[gluteus maximus]

[Monkey]

SF Vanilla creamer & whatever fake sugar is available.

I like my coffee to not taste like coffee :lol:

[Brandy]

Usually just Splenda. I like it sweet. It's been a real work in progress to get me to that point. Used to be sf, ff creamer and alot of Splenda. Have worked hard to lower to 2 Splenda packs per big mug.

That being said, I've been working my macros around so I get 1/2 scoop butter toffee PP in my coffee. :drool:

[BSNJunkie]

SF Coconut this am. Sometimes vanilla, vanilla hazelnut or raspberry. Sometimes balck if it is flavored At home i have almond ameretto.:coffee: :yum:

[Lingerie Lady]

When I have normal coffee (at work, at restaurants, at a hostesses house) I have it black. From Caribou, always a shot of sugar free turtle.

[absolut_blonde]

A little off-topic but I just tried Teeccino today based on the recs I saw here. I got the Amaretto flavour and it's pretty good (would've preferred the vanilla but they were out). I suspect it would be better with some real Amaretto added :yum: but the 4lbs I gained on vacation make that a no-go.

[QueenBee]

absolutely NOTHIN'. I drink it straight up :D
Ditto

[Espi]

Usually 1-2 teaspoons of cocao powder, 8g of dark chocolate and aspartame sweetener. Sometimes instead of chocolate I'll add shredded coconut or even raisins. Green raisins were my latest discovery. Soooo yummy! But stopped that when I noticed the raisins pre-WO make me sleepy during the workout, so I now only very rarely eat this as I go very lowcarb on the non-WO days and very rarely drink a 2nd cup of coffee after a workout.

[abbatoir]

a cup of soy milk and non-dairy creamer and sugar. there's not much coffee in it :lol:

Raisins in coffee? :whut: Do you put them in the grounds or the coffee itself?

[BSNJunkie]

PP in ur coffee??? do you just add it after the coffee is done brewing???? interesting...

Yes. I love dymatize Cafe mocha in my coffee. Better than creamer. I just got butter toffee I'll have to try that. Carefull though anything that clumps in water will clump in coffee and be kinda nasty.

[Tearose]

T. splenda and a touch of skim milk

[smuggie]

You're my kinda girl. :funny:

[Espi]

Would you put raisins in the grounds? They don't give off a lot of flavour that way.
Besides, I don't have a coffee maker, only 'oploskoffie' (what's the Merkan name for coffee from a stick you add boiling water to?)

I'm currently both lacking space and the €€€ for a real heavy-duty espresso machine. Till then I make do with my delish concoctions and frequent the local coffee-bean shop where they make the best-evah espresso, and I can choose between no less than 6 different espresso beans. They also happen to sell those same espresso machines I'm lusting for.

[Bunny]

2 tsp splenda & milk for a big mug, a little more splenda for my travel cup. very occassionally, Baileys :yum:

[chelleashley]

Milk and sweetener....sugar twin? The yellow packets...LOL...how sad I don't even pay attention.

[magdalynaa]

Black. :coffee:

I drink chicory coffee, so it doesn't need much flavoring. Plus, my bf makes fun of me and calls me a weenie when I add anything else to my coffee. :o

[magdalynaa]

PP in ur coffee??? do you just add it after the coffee is done brewing???? interesting...

I do this, too. I just add a scoop of PP (mine is Syntrax vanilla), maybe 3-4 oz of water, and then about 2-3 oz of coffee. I stir it up and add some ice. I don't add any sweeteners because honestly, the PP is sweet enough. It's a nice change from just PP and water. :)

[Ana]

Yes. I love dymatize Cafe mocha in my coffee. Better than creamer. I just got butter toffee I'll have to try that. Carefull though anything that clumps in water will clump in coffee and be kinda nasty.
How do you prevent it from clumping. I've never been successful at it, it all separates

[chelleashley]

Hmm...

Maybe it's a problem with your PP? Some just mix better than others. Designer Whey tastes awesome to me, but I don't buy it just because it mixes like concrete.

Make sure that you aren't adding PP to a cold liquid; they seem to mix better when your liquid is room temperature or warmer. You might try adding it to the hot coffee first, and then stirring in water if you need to.

[DesperadousPrime]

ice. a straw. i like my coffee like my women, strong and dark, with a straw.

[Jillian]

3 cream...or on occasion baileys

[BSNJunkie]

I haven't done anything special to it. I think it depends on the brand. Does your Dymatize clump? PVL does, BSN doesn't.? I dont add any water to the PP. I just stir it into my coffee.

[Espi]

if it's like cocoa powder, add the protein powder to the mug first and then slowly stir in the hot liquid ahnd keep stirring.
Ah, another great addition: vanilla ice cream of course. A coffee float. Only in America (US/Canada). :)
