How do you like your coffee?

Hazelnut coffee with cream, or coffee with hazelnut-flavored creamer. At home it's Dunkin Donuts regular coffee. I love Panera's hazelnut coffee, and I like McDonald's pretty well. And overall I prefer medium roast and not particularly strong.

I'm a coffee peasant. Love it but my tastes are very plain.

Instant coffee is my favourite. In Singapore I drink Nescafe 3-in-1 (yes, powdered milk as well as sugar) plus two extra sugars. If I go out I prefer lattes at McDonald's. For some reason McCafe seems to serve the best coffee.

If I am flying Cebu Pacific Airlines to/from Philippines then I drink their mochas. They're the best mochas I have ever tasted.

In my house in Australia I drink instant coffee but will drink practically any latte when I go out. Always with three sugars.

If no milk and/or sugar is available then I just drink black instant coffee.

I'm down to 2-3 cups a day now but I drink at least a can of Red Bull to make up for it. Love my caffeine!

:eek:

La-la-la-la-la-la-la! I CAN'T HEAR YOU!

;)

I work with a lady who likes to drink what she calls "coffee": It's decaffeinated instant coffee with non-dairy powdered creamer and artificial sweetener. I swear... there's nothing natural in her coffee cup except for the hot water.

:.-(
 

I do mostly drink instant. Not least as I left my percolator at home, now I'm on placement. When I can get it, I like to add Vanilla to my Lattes, I've never tried hazelnut...

A tip... If you prefer the taste of brewed coffee but need the convenience of instant coffee, look for single-serve coffee in what looks like a tea bag.

I know Folgers makes a version called "coffee singles". It's usually about five or six buck for about 20 servings. You make the same way you'd make tea -- dip the bag in hot water and let it sit for a minute or two -- but you get a cup of coffee instead.

It's not quite as good as a percolator, but it's better than instant.
 


Any chance of seeing that in the UK? I think for now I'll stick to instant.

Here's what it looks like if you are curious:

I use that at work occasionally when I'm too lazy to make a full pot. Trust me it is still gross.
 


The nescafe shot tub things? Sort of instant I think...

This reminded me though, at least Derulbaskul did, of people who came into a cafe I worked at, and walking out in a huff when we said we didn't sell instant coffee! :o
 

And, yes, I admit I am a complete coffee peasant.

I finished a very expensive meal with my lawyers in Brisbane, Australia today and had a latte... and then rushed home for my instant coffee fix! Hehe... great restaurant, but I prefer the lattes at McDonald's in either Singapore or Oz.
