I mean grind your own beans or buy it in a can and make and drink real coffee? Not the funny flavored stuff or the stuff from coffee houses, just black coffee?

I drink black coffee except when I am at the Barnes & Noble bookstore, then I will have a ten-pump vanilla latte at the Starbucks counter inside the store. Need some sweet sometimes.

Miss Jen, when I was working every year at this time if I didn't bring the Bailey's my sister-in-law would send me out to find some no matter how far I had to go and wouldn't let me in until I had a very large bottle of it too!!

Just wondered. Mine is ready to drink now that the horseshoe melted.

I buy coffee in a can or sometimes buy the beans and grind them in the store. I make coffee most mornings and every weekend morning. The only time I use instant is in a real pinch!

NEVER use the 'funny flavored stuff' or coffee house coffee.

I drink mine black and very strong...no sugar either.

I also have an espresso maker and when I figure out how to work it, I'll be using that a LOT.

We always have a bag of A&P's Eight o Clock coffee beans around the house when we feel like having something "special". Usually we just use regular Maxwell House. I don't care for flavored coffee, but I do enjoy adding some Bailey's to it in the winter. Just to take the "chill" off, of course.

Oh you are so lucky being able to drink real coffee! Tc can't drink coffee at all as it has terrible effects on his kidneys, especially his right one which had to be re-inflated 20 years ago due to it being twisted. I can't drink caffenated coffee or anything with caffiene in it as it gives me really nasty migraines but I used to be able to. I can almost smell fresh coffee beans now as I'm sat at my keyboard! Never had a latte or any of the other coffees out there so, folks, the next time you have a real coffee, nice and strong, black with 2 teaspoons of sugar.....mmmmm! just pass a quick thought my way plz. I love the smell of real coffee, there's nothing quite like it.

I buy my beans from a coffee house where the proprietor roasts the beans on a daily basis. I buy whole beans and grind them just before I make coffee in my French press. If I am at a coffee shop, I never take any flavoured coffee or those specialty blends with the gimmicky names.

I generally only drink one cup of coffee a day so I want that one to be really good. I grind my own beans,. My french press broke so use a drip pot now but hoping Santa will bring me another french press. I don't like it black but use a little of the liquid flavored creamers or real cream.

I live in the boonies so don't have a Starbucks but when I'm near one, I'll treat myself to one of their specialty brews. Good stuff.

I drink filter coffee at home - but I don't grind my own beans. I drink it with milk in the mornings, black in the evenings. Occasionally I use a french press if I'm only making coffee for me, and also when I am working. I don't but coffee from cafes because its served in cardboard and overpriced.

Good old Folgers for me. Grinding up the beans is just too much work in the morning! lol I"ll get a Starbucks caramel latte maybe once a month.

I have both a coffee machine and espresso machine. If I do coffee, it's black - no creme, no sugar, no funny flavors - black coffee, fresh ground. I had this chocolate flavored coffee - it was rubbish. I got it as a gift...complete waste.

The espresso machine gets fresh ground as well. I'll usually do a latte though, so I use milk and baileys - but baileys isn't funny flavored junk!

I'm just about forty weeks pregnant and I've been ingesting espresso during my being pregnant. I do not drink it like loopy however I do love espresso. You can take a look at blending decaf and consistent in order that the caffeine isn't as prime or simply transfer to decaf wholly. Just take a look at to not over do it, 2 cups an afternoon is first-class. Congrats!!

I drink real black coffee at home and enjoy it. But, if I am in some place like Starbucks, I always try one of their flavored ones.
