I more than love coffee. I have an unnatural affection for coffee. I have become such an ardent coffee drinker that I now take it black. I love its bitterness, its aroma, its warm comfort in the morning as the caffeine surges through my system and finally gets to my eyelids and says "wake up!". Sometimes in the afternoon I do like an iced coffee. This I will take milk in, but I like the iced coffee with a shot of espresso in it. Coffee is also very good for you, being preventative for colon cancer, diabetes type 2 and Parkinson's Disease. So, drink up!

Oh, I forgot to mention that there is an enzyme in coffee that destroys the bacteria on teeth that cause cavities. It's really a great beverage.

I’m a coffee lover and my hubby as well. I prefer hot coffee stirred with cream and little bit of sugar. For me only hot coffee could give it real and natural aromatic fragrance. I love and enjoy smelling the unique aroma of hot coffee before have a sip of it. Most of the time, both my hubby and I could hardly refrain from the aromatic smell of the coffee when we passing by a coffee bean or any other coffee shops. Of course we will enjoy our hot coffee again in it.

Me too. Especially during night time when I have lots to do, and I don't want to sleep.

Yes, I agree. I can't stop myself either once I could smell its aroma. Whenever my mom makes a cup in the afternoon, I just have to have a sip. hehe. Thank you for your response.

If the weather is hot, I like to make a coffee shake with cold water and a little fruit sugar or brown sugar. It is a special experience to drink it with the foam on the top. During winter I like it hot either with cocoa and cream or black. It makes me feel warm inside. I also add a little cinnamon and other spices - gives great taste.

I used to be an avid black coffee drinker, but I now prefer iced coffee in the morning or after noon, as well as iced tea or cold juice. The only drink that I don't like cold is pretty much water, which I prefer cool, but not refrigerated. =D

yes, i dont like my water cold either, just room temp... you drink iced coffee in the morning? does it have the same effect of waking you up like hot coffee?

I do occasionally drink iced coffee in the morning, and although the effect isn't the same, it is very refreshing and a nice start to my day all the same! =D

I like the taste of coffee but I rarely drink one. Why? Because of the caffeine. I don't know if it is psychological but I will just have difficulty getting sleep at night even if I had the coffee in the morning. I know there's decaf but most of the coffee's sold are caffeinated. But when I drink coffee I prefer the cold one - Ice Coffee. Although in cold season hot is much preferable.

Really? Oh that's too bad. You won't be able to taste coffee often because of that. Decaffeneited coffees are sold at most stores. Maybe you should try looking for it. ^_^ Thanks for your response.

I know there are decaffeinated coffees in the store but I'm not really craving for it. Once in a while is fine specially when I have less sleep or about to have a headache. I heard drinking coffee can reduce headache but on the other hand some say that it could actually cause it. Like in this article http://www.ctds.info/migraine-headaches.html. But it works for me so I would only consume coffee when I really need it. :-D

i like coffee both hot or cold. it depends on my mood what to have in the morning. lately i've taking hot coffee, with chocolate and cream in the morning. last month i was so into cold coffee with ice and everything. when i go out at coffee shops i always order an ice cafe latte`. im not really into frap and ice blended coffee, they look so yummy though, makes me wanna try them out one day soon.

I like to drink hot coffee in the morning with bread and omellettes, also after every meal. But on a hot weather i prefer to drink ice cold coffee.

I prefer cold coffee drinks as I am not keen on drinking hot drinks. I do like them but for me they have to be just say hot. Some people can drink their coffee pretty much as soon as it is made but not me. I like to drink frappuccinos. Especially ones that have been flavoured with things such as Coconut, gingerbread, cinammon etc.
