    Default How do you take your coffee?

    Watching a lot of Twin Peaks recently so I thought about it... I could make a poll but there are so many ways to make a cup the poll would have 1000 options.

    If I'm somewhere outside of my house I love a black cup of coffee but at my home it's a different story. I like a strong cup of Maxwell House with a quarter of a teaspoon of sugar and a drop of milk. Obviously no one can make it the way you do at home so it's not going to be the same and black coffee is wonderful anyways so it's no big deal. What do you like?

    I do not.
    I never managed to develop a taste for it, which, watching the show, makes me feel a bit like I'm missing out on something.

    I do like tea, particularly Earl Grey and lapsong souchon. With some sugar.

    I like cold tea. It must be an american thing. Hot tea is for when you're sick where I live haha

    IThere needs to be a thread Captain Picard and his Earl Grey vs. Dale Cooper and his black coffee.

    It used to be fairly popular around here as a soft drink, but I haven't seen it as much in the last ten-ish years.

    As black as the black heart of Darkseid. And strong enough to melt nails. My coffee is the embodiment of the anti-life equation.

    Gail Simone reminded us throughout the Clean Room comic series that Earl Gray tea is essential for keeping the truly nasty alien monsters away. They can't stand the smell of the stuff.

    Must be. I can’t even imagine drinking cold tea. The temperature actually affects the taste.

    Down here on the Gulf Coast, iced tea is far more popular than hot tea. It's a good counter to our seemingly endless summers.

    Yes it does, which is why almost all black tea sold in the USA is orange pekoe. That type holds a refreshing flavor better when chilled than most other black teas do, and lots of it is specially blended for how it tastes when iced. I drink iced tea all day long, but I also drink hot tea in the morning and early afternoon. For hot tea, I prefer a really strong type like Twining's Irish Breakfast tea or Taylors of Harrowgate Scottish Breakfast tea (not quite as robust as the Irish tea, but with a nice malty taste).

    I love coffee but I'm conscous of my caffeine intake so I get half decaf half regular with a shot of hazelnut with 1/2 Splenda and cream.

    A taste of half-and-half, lots of sweetener (used to be lots of sugar but since being diagnosed as a diabetic I switched to stevia).

    I can get on board with this. Green, Herbal, and English breakfast are among my favorites as well.

    I'm tempted to stop in a store for some coffee.
