How do you take your coffee?

I use a 10 ounce cup and I take about 4 teaspoons of sugar and a teaspoon of creamer. Everyone keeps yelling at me for using too much sugar. I don't think that is drastically too much, it's a BIG cup, lol! I used to drink my coffee black...then with just creamer, now I've 'graduated' to tons of sugar!

I usually only have 1 cup of coffee a day, sometimes 2. You are having 30 teaspoons a day!!! I'm only having 4, lol! I'm just kidding, I know it's too much, I need to cut back more. I used to just POUR it out and stop at about 1/4 of the cup! So, I have 'cut-back' ! ha ha ha

I used to drink my cups of coffee with a little bit of milk and some sugar. I got tired of buying milk all of the time to put into my coffe. I was already cooking with milk and my husband has to have milk when he eats a meal. I cut myself back to no sugar and no milk in my coffee. I like to drink black coffe now, but it took me a while to get used to the taste without milk and sugar in it. I drink about a pot and a half per day while I am working around the house and online.

In a cold morning, I like to have my hot freshly brew coffee with a bit of sugar, usually one sugar to keep my weight down and add skimmed milk into it. I must have my coffee with milk.
I would prefer full cream milk, but due to my weight, I have to cut down on the full cream milk and opt for skimmed milk.

10 oz is just 2 oz bigger than a regular tea cup. The cup I use at work is 20oz and I just put a tablespoon of French Vanilla creamer in it or a single serving of half & half.

OMG 4 sugars, I used to have 3 sugars in my tea but I being such a sweet tooth thought I had better cut back, so now I only have 2 and a bit, I don't know why I put the bit in but I always do...when I have coffee I have 2 sugars and milk....but I only allow myself one cup of coffee a day as it isn't good to have too much of that either or so they say...

I always drink coffee without adding any sugar, I like this because it can really make me awake for the whole day.I use instant coffee powder to make the coffee, I will put 4 -5 tea spoon of coffee powder into a 375 ml cup, and then I will add hot water into the cup,the taste may be a bit sour but I already gte use to it.

on a 20oz cup from the Java Stop at the gas station I take SIX squirts please !! That is six squirts of French Vanilla Creamer.. it comes in a large squirt jug, not unlike a ketchup dispenser. I only use the creamer, it's sweet enough so I don't have to add sugar to it. I only drink 2 cups of coffee at night at work to stay awake. The second cup usually comes from the Donut shop (where none of us eat donuts because they are NASTY), but the coffee is good. That officer gets me 2 sugar/2 cream. They don't have my french vanilla there though !! :(

In the winter I find myself drinking coffee all day long and the way I take it varies with the time of day... First thing in the morning my cup has 1 spoon of sugar, no milk .. as the day goes on I generally go up to a larger cup with 2 spoons of sugar and skim milk... but after supper.. I guess I have a dessert coffee.. 2 spoons of sugar and flavored creamer in a 6 oz cup. Summer, I only have a couple of cups in the morning and then I am on sweet tea for the rest of the day!

Yum, coffee! We've recently been reunited as I delivered my daughter 5 weeks ago. Before that I was a pot of coffee a day person. I love starbucks so much but it is way too expensive. So, I make mine at home with a splash of milk and tons of sugar.

I make my coffee as creamy as I can. Im not so much into coffee but when I do drink, I just add one heaping teaspoon of coffee in a hot water, and 4 or 5 teaspoon of coffeemate! and add 2 to 3 teaspoon of sugar that is not equal coz I hate equal or nutrasweet. That's how I like my coffee.
