Trying to get thru my afternoon. Thank God my day will end in less than an hour! So here's the question: How do you take your coffee? do you drink it straight/black or do you add stuff? Do you drink regular or decaffinated? When do you drink coffee? If you don't drink coffee, what do you drink instead? I drink coffee with all the extras I can get - cream, sugar (lo-cal, not the real stuff) and I prefer cream in flavors. I can drink coffee all day at work, but rarely drink it on the weekends! I can drink regular or decaf, at work I have to dilute the coffee with hot water - it is THAT strong - when they don't have decaf.

I can last all day without a single cup of coffee. However, I am definitely a coffee lover and would not even consider doing so. My day always starts and ends with coffee, along with a great number of cups in between. I love cappuccino though I can have a day without coffee. I only crave for it when I'm restless and I need to wake up. I also need coffee in the afternoon if I feel tired.

As much as possible, I don't drink coffee because I have high blood pressure or hypertension. But if that's the only drink available, I do drink coffee with cream, a little amount of sugar as I have indications of diabetes, and of course, I like it hot.

I drink my coffee black. I think putting anything in coffee absolutely ruins it. I also like Turkish coffee, and the only thing people actually add to that is sugar. I don't even do that, I drink my Turkish coffee bkacl to!!

I can't drink that much coffee cause it does something funny to my bladder. If it weren't for that I would drink coffee all day. (well I guess if I would drink decaf I could drink more) I love my coffee with cream and 1 packet sugar and sweetener (that depends on how strong it is). I also like to add flavored creamers. Or chocolate syrup and nutmeg with the cream and 'sugar'. I was just thinking about brewing some coffee before I found this post.... It is getting hard to resist getting up!

I absolutely LOVE coffee, but I don't drink it very much anymore because it tends to give me a stomach ache. However, when I drink coffee I always put creamer and sugar in, usually flavored creamer if I have some around. French vanilla, hazelnut, amaretto... yum :) If I go out for coffee, I almost always get something iced. I like going to Starbucks and getting iced Caramel Machiatto (sorry about the spelling on that, I can pronounce it but not write it), with whipped cream on top. I almost always drink regular, but I'll drink decaf if it's all that is around. I can drink coffee in the morning, during the day... I've even had coffee at 11 at night before (usually while I'm trying to cram some studying in for a test or writing a paper for the next day...) I bought a coffee cup once that holds 5 cups of coffee, and there have been several times that I have drank the entire thing while working on a paper....
