While typing here on MyLot, I was staring at that rediculous looking cup of coffe with the words "MyLot" written in it. It got me thinking about all the different ways I like to "fix" my coffee! I guess it depends on my mood...Sometimes it's just black, sometimes it's with Hot chocolate and creamer. Sometimes it's Irish creme and hot chocolate mixed. My most fav one I found lately is called "Traverse City Cherry" cappacino. I mix some of that in my cofee when I put hot cocoa in it. If you like chocolate covered cherries, this is the whip!

i don 't think i can function without a cup of coffee in the morning. It's like a boost of energy. I have never tried my coffee mixed with hot chocolate. I like flavored cream but i perfer the regular cream. The flavor is nice but it takes away from the coffee when it good just like it is. Some time with out sugar; but i have to have cream. Don't like it black.

I don't think I can function with out coffee in the a.m. or p.m.! I got into "fixing" my coffee while I was an OTR truck driver. It always seemed like some of the trucks stops made coffee to "put hair on your chest" (which is ok if you're a guy! :-) ) But it wasn't working for me! So I started adding a little of this and a little of that to make it taste better. Now it's become a science!

Wow. I thought I was the only one who did all this to their coffee. I will have to try that Traverse Cheery Cappuccino. Where do you get it?
I got got a bunch of the syrups like they use at Starbucks(they always have them in TJ Maxx with the rest of the food). I love the caramel one. I really like these because they have sugar-free versions, which is good for me since I already put regular sugar in it.
I also like the hot chocolate stuff mixed in it. Every once in a while I will go all out and put marshmallows and whipped cream on top like a homemade Mocha.
Now I only wish I hadn't just finished my coffee....

I would try Starbucks; nearest to you possibly. Or you can go to either Hannaford or Price Chopper. And go to the coffee section. Hey, I would mix hot chocolate in with coffee. That is awesome.

As crazy as it sounds, the only place I have found the "Traverse City Cappacino" is in Michigan; In Traverse City, and in Kalamazoo. I think both times I found it at a Speedway gas station! If you can't find it, the next best thing I can suggest is adding a little cherry syrup from the soda fountain machines in it's place! lol! :-)

Hey, you guys!
You wanna see this? What I would do is pour coffee into my cup. Put that cup of coffee into the freezer for a little for the coffee to become cold or iced. My flavors would be Irish creme, French vanilla, and hazelnut. Same as creamers; whether powder or liquid. Then I would add whipped cream on top. That will be awesome. Same as any cappucino. What do you think?
