I am a coffee drinker, I mainly drink just regular coffee in the morning and I stick to the decaf in the evenings but on cool mornings and afternoons, I'll hit a coffee shop or cafe for delicious flavored coffees that I love so much but lately I have had to improvise. I have started making my own flavored coffee and it's just like what I buy in the shops and cafe's but for much less than I could have imagined and I am so happy. It's not just the flavored creamers that I started with, or just flavored coffee, I have experimented and played around with different flavors to call it my own, wish I could open up my own coffee shop. I have even made a coffee punch for my co-workers that they loved. I have daydreamed about having my own little shop with coffees, teas, and the cakepop's and sweet things that I make in a display bar, oh how nice it would be. Anyway,I need another cup of java, anyone else while I'm up? lol

yes coffee is a delicious drink for me I don't like home made conventional coffee but I like espresso coffee with lots of drinking chocolate sprinkled our it . Coffee is a energy drink for me as it gives lot of energy to me ,its like pool of calories enclosed in my cup of coffee which tastes wonderful especially when I m tired . Coffee adds life to my life is like a huge energy support. That's why I love espresso coffee. Hare Krishna Ganesh

I drink coffee in the morning and in the afternoon. Coffee is good for health too as long as we don't drink it too much. It's great if you want to run your own coffee shop. I may drop by and find out how nice your coffee is. Let me know when your shop is ready. Happy mylotting.

Hi ladylonewolf2008, I don't drink coffee every day as I prefer chocolate drink. Anyway when I do drink coffee I like the hazelnut flavored ones. To me they are simply aromatic and delicious. Sometimes I also like a freshly brewed coffee (not too thick) and with sugar but no milk. I find the flavor and smell of freshly brewed coffee wonderful. I may add a spoonful of peanut butter to the coffee just for the fun of it. Enjoy your coffee!

I love coffee too.My day won't be complete if I don't drink even a single cup.Flavored coffee is tasty too but quite expensive.I like mocha frappuccino and coffee jelly in Starbucks or in Seattle's Best Coffee.

What on earth is a coffee punch? Sounds interesting... Lol, I am drinking coffee right now, but I just bought it at McDonalds (only a $1). It's Colombia-blend or whatever you call it, and it's my favorite type of coffee to drink. I really don't drink too much flavored coffee/fancy coffee as I call it, but once in a great while I will. Too often, I find that those types of coffees (or any coffee with creamer or sugar in it) are just to sweet - it's like an acquired taste, just like BLACK coffee is, I guess! That would be cool to own your own coffee shop though. I'd visit it!

I know exactly what you mean about the joys of flavored coffee. Don't get me wrong, black coffee straight up can also be delicious, especially when it is freshly ground and you have the chance to absorb the beautiful aroma. But flavored coffee sometimes takes my taste buds to another dimension! My favorite is probably the "hazelnut" and such flavors, although caramel and vanilla would be a close second/third. By the way, if you haven't already tried it, you should attempt a cup of coffee with a little bit of Jam in it. I know it sounds kind of gross, but believe me, a dollop of Smuckers strawberry for instance dissolves pretty quickly and makes for a nice fruity flavored coffee that is truly a breakfast experience! Seriously enjoying this kind of jam-flavored coffee with a piece or two of plain toast is so relaxing! And I can also relate to your daydreams haha. Sometimes I wish I could open my own little bakery that would be a lot different from the typical donut shop or even Starbucks. I would sell small pastries, along with my own flavored coffee of course! Ah to dream.. and nothing compliments daydreaming like another cup of coffee right!
