theres nothing better than to have a nice hot, fresh made cup of coffee in the morning...i love the smell and it gets my day started!
I usually drink a cup first thing in the morning! The way I make it is...boil water serve on a cup, then i add sacarine (sugar substitute) cinnamond, and milk. I usually use 2 tea spoonfulls, then half water and half milk...And i must admit that i've got to have the cinnamond in it, it gives it this special touch! And ohhh man, its soo good! not too sweet and not too bitter, just perfect to get the day going!
So I ask, how do you make your coffe?

i always add milk and sugar to my coffee. not too sweet, just enough to get rid of the bitterness. i can never drink coffee black, too bitter for my taste.

I do not drink coffee, but I make coffee for my husband each morning, unless I am not speaking to him.
Our drip pot, or whatever it is called does not work. So, what I do every morning, I put the filter in the cup and put in two heaping scoops into it.
I boil a pot of water on the stove, after it is boiling, I manually pour the water into the cup with the filter and coffee, when the cup is full, I turn it so that it connects with the coffee pot and drip. I keep doing this until the pot is full.
When my husband gets up, he goes directly to his cup, pours a cup, put it in the microwave to get hot (he usually gets up at least a hour after I have made it) adds two teaspoons of sugar and enough cream to make it light. He won't drink milk in his coffee, I do not what the difference is, but if there is no cream he won't drink the coffee, even after I have gone through all of that to make it.

I use acoffeepot. I like to brew coffee when I get up. I ahve a programmable coffeepot. I like to use it in the morning and have a cup of flavored coffee with alittle decaf mixed in because I have trouble sleeping and it will let me sleep alittle easier. I do love my coffee though. I havent figured out how to program it though I'm too lazy.

I put 1 1/2 scoops of Folgers Breakfast Blend Coffee into my coffee-maker
(in filter of course)
Then, when it finishes, I pour a cup, add one teaspoon of sugar and a dash of cream
or Vanillia Coffee-Mate. When I have pure honey, I use it and NO cream!

ohh yeah! i've tryed the honey also, its a good healthy alternative to sugar! I really never add sugar, i dont know why, but i rather use the substitutes. But honey also gives it a special flavour i must add.

When I was drinking it every day at home (before blood pressure troubles), I just put a few scoops of regular old Maxwell House into my drip coffee maker and made about 10 cups worth which turned out to be 3 mugs worth. I only added a bit of milk to the mix to take the edge off...never used sugar.
Now, I sneak over to the Publix Grocery Store and have about a 4 oz cup of their free coffee a few times a week to keep from losing the last of my marbles.

i like mmy coffee strong plain black, no cream, no sugar. that is the way i want it in the mornings. the caffeine wakes me up and fuels me with the morning stress.but when i relax, or sip a cup with my friends, im ok with a packet of cream and a packet of sugar. i love frapuccino too in hot summer days.
