This makes me happy, because boy howdy do I go through a lot of it.
It's worth noting, though, that what you put into coffee may not be so good for you. I sat down and did the math and realized that I was taking in almost 1500 calories/day in milk and sugar that I put in my coffee. I've since switched to drinking it black or with just a bit of skim milk (to cool it - the first cup out of a french press is scalding!), and have lost a significant amount of weight just from that change alone.
- jmmcd 14y agoYeah that's an important point, also mentioned in the article. It also mentions coffee that is designed to smell like "seasonal celebrations", ie pumpkin spiced latte and similar. We have to distinguish between coffee and dessert-in-disguise.
- reddit_clone 14y ago>dessert-in-disguise. Double espresso with a dash of Baileys.. mmm..
- engtech 14y agooff-topic, but it's almost December. I just came across a recipe for freezing coffee in ice cube trays, and then putting it in with Baileys and vanilla vodka. This sounds like a winner for the annual "It's a Wonderful Life" every time they say George Bailey drinking game.
- pyre 14y agoWell, all of those flavored lattes are done with sugary syrup. You can still flavor your coffee without sugar. Things like raw cocoa powder, cinnamon, nutmeg, ginger, etc. (maybe vanilla extract too, but I'm not sure how much sugar that might have on its own)
- dubya 14y agoCardamom in coffee is quite tasty. It gives some of the flavor of Turkish coffee without all the viscosity.
