How do you like your coffee?
If you drink it, do you like it hot, cold brewed, or hot brewed then chilled?
Do you add anything to your cup of coffee (such as cream, milk, flavors, sugar, sweetener, etc.)?
Decaf or regular? A cappuccino or a latte or an espresso?
From beans you grind or using ground coffee?

Hot, black, dark roasted with all the caffeine!
"A funny story about John Wayne having a coffee break on set goes like this:
Wayne was known for his love of coffee—strong, black, and plenty of it. One day, during a break in filming, he was sitting in his chair, sipping from his cup, when a young crew member walked by with a fancy cappuccino.
Wayne looked at the frothy drink and grumbled, "What the hell is that?!"
The crew member proudly said, "It's a cappuccino, Duke. You ever try one?"
Wayne took a long, slow sip of his own coffee, smacked his lips, and said, "Son, if I wanted my coffee all dressed up, I'd put a hat on it."
The whole crew cracked up, and Wayne went right back to drinking his no-nonsense cowboy coffee."

I make double espresso and add to hot milk. Like a latte really. Not a fan of filter coffee, prefer made at pressure using an espresso machine!

I take mine hot, dark, leaded, and unadultered. Dark roast strongly preferred. Cold brew is an interesting mix on a hot summer day.

Sweet and Light.
When I was in the Air Force I learned to drink it "black" because in
many places there was not an abundance of creamer and sugar.

Don't drink coffee.
I do drink tea. I've got a Green Tea, brown sugar and honey. Numi Gunpowder Green Tea.
Also enjoy a good mint black tea.

I like my coffee hot and with cream and sugar. I live on campus though so I don't have my own coffee maker and the coffee on campus is not great.

I do not drink coffee, I don't even like the smell of it. Hot cocoa is my drink of choice on cold days, with plenty of marshmallows!

Crisp! (Canadians of a certain age will know about that.)"
I prefer my coffee black. I usually make it in a French press, but on weekends, I make it in a moka pot. One cup at breakfast, and that's it for the day, most days. Sometimes, if I have another coffee later in the morning, it will be a mocha latté.
* "Crisp" is from an old ad for Nestlé Coffee Crisp chocolate bar, available only in Canada. The dialogue went:
"How do you like your coffee?"
"Crisp."
"You like your coffee crisp??"
I like my Coffee Crisp."

White coffee no sugar. I use powder. Used to make all the fancy coffee when I worked in a hotel. We had a very temperamental coffee machine that cost a fortune in service and repairs.

Instant from a jar but its a Columbian blend so quite strong, black no sugar and I cant drink things that are hot so it has to chill a bit. Mostly I drink lemon green tea just a coffee first thing or if I am out and that is the only thing I can get.

I'll just say in a cup and plenty of it. If I have the choice, light and sweet, always have had a bit of a sweet tooth. If I'm buying a cup on the run, Dunkin' Donuts is my favorite choice. The wife has a definite preference for French Vanilla...
