On occasion.....?

I try to limit my intake of caffein/coffee.  I heard it has negative physical effects in general, and can hurt performance if taken too much (I'm sure there is a debate on that - but lets not the point, so leave it out of this thread).

But on some days when I'm just DRAG'N (like today), it almost feels like a gift from above....

I LOVE a venti vanilla latte or cafe mocha, mmmmmmmm

What's your poison when it comes to Java?

Coffee.

Just plain coffee.  No half-caf, latte, foam, extra hot, shots of this and that, no whip, no room, no venti/grande/tall, no Splenda, no hazelnut flavoring.

Large.  Coffee.

Coffee makes me really sick so I can't drink it However, in the summer, I DO love the occasional iced vanilla decaf from Dunkin' Donuts with cream and sugar. Dunkin' Donuts coffee is so good, it's almost worth the violent nausea, headaches and dizziness that it causes me. So I stick to decaf. But it's the only coffee I like.

I've been making a kind of au lait at home-- make 1/2 cup very strong coffee, heat 1/2 cup milk (I've been using WHOLEm how's that for indulgence) and mix.  It tastes like europe.  heavenly.

I'm sorry, you were talking about coffee, then you started talking about these beverages like a venti vanilla latte and a cafe mocha (which, I believe is prepared using Quik or something).

Yes, coffee is a great drink. A venti vanilla latte is not coffee. That is a drink for people who don't like coffee. You haven't had your man-card reinstated yet, have you?

I denounce the card.  I can drink a latte, even order one in a biker bar and not bat an eye.  Let someone try to take my latte or cafe americano from me when I'm in a bad mood.....

He speaks the truth.  I tried to take it away from him the other day.  The welt on my face from his purse is still there.

LaurenSU02 - 2008-04-03 10:37 AM I've never had it.

WHAT!??

Just kidding.

I have probably 1-3 cups per week...whenever I make some in our french press at home (the only way to go!) or when I feel like coughing up the $1.50 for a Starbucks/Dunkin Donuts/whatever coffee shop I'm near.

I'm kinda over Bucks and DD...I've been trying some new local places around here and I find that they are much better.

I used to love all those high calorie coffees from Starbucks, but only drink black now.  I was freezing my @$$ off before a race this past winter and got a black coffee just to hold and warm my hands with since all they had was that nasty fake creamer stuff & that didn't seem like a good idea before a 10 mile race.  Then started sipping, since it was there.....  Yummmmmm.  And I wasn't cold anymore  --  hadn't realized the coffee gets cold too fast when I add milk.  Sometimes I drink a hot coffee before going to the pool so I don't freeze.  Easier than swimming faster

Im addicted. I admit it. I drink several cups of black coffee per day. I love it, and I agree... it is probably my all time favorite beverage.

Don't get me wrong, I love my Guiness, Grey Goose, and Patron.  Just not the best "get me going" drink to start the work day with.
