What do you put in your coffee??

[sarab]

Good morning everybody!!!

How do you make your coffee taste yummy, but still somewhat healthy?

Thanks!

Huh, I don't think mine is all that healthy, but it's how I like it. I use Coffee Mate creamer (lately it's been the coconut cream) and one packet of stevia plus.

Another Coffee Mate creamer gal here. Vanilla Nut is my flavor. I have tried the Silk soy creamers, but not as tasty to me as the Coffee Mate.

Yeah, I don't really believe any coffee is all that healthy, but I can't live without it!!! If I can make the stuff healthier by what I put in it, I would be satisfied. Coconut cream sounds great; I might try that!!

Think again. Coffee in moderation has benefits:

Personally, I'm a tea drinker but with a penchant for coffee ice cream.

I use splenda and fat free half n half. Healthy? Probably not but it's my only vice and I'm not about to give it up!}(

I was a proud light cream (not milk, not 1/2 and 1/2, but LIGHT CREAM - the real stuff!) and sugar gal, who's recently switched to black. Somewhere in the switch, I tried vanilla soy milk and I really liked that, to my surprise.

I wasn't aiming to switch to black - I was perfectly happy having this be my one vice, but one day recently I woke up and simply didn't want the additives, and it's been black ever since! Very weird.

I put milk and 3 lbs of sugar. Kidding, though DH is aghast at how sweet I like my coffee. Basically though if it doesn't taste like melted coffee ice cream, I'm not interested.

I use coffemate too, the original flavor.

 

[CoralOcean57]

I drink it black and it tastes delicious

Stevia, period...Now, Caribou is a different story!

Sorry, can't help in the healthy category. I use fat free coffeemate (the regular kind) with a touch of hazelnut for that yummy taste and splenda.

I only have one cup per day so I allow myself the indulgence.

Oh yeah! It's very yummy. If you go to the Nestle website you can get a coupon for $1.00 off.

I like my coffee very strong and black. I went through a milk and splenda phase but that didn't last long. I prefer rich, dark roast coffees and I savor them.

Fat free half & half and 1 1/2 tspn of sugar. Plus I only like flavored coffee. Snickerdoodle is my favorite.

I've tried all sorts of tricks to get away from adding fat to my coffee, but I've given that up. I now use half & half, and for flavoring I sprinkle in some vanilla powder from Starbucks. I think there's added sugar in that.

During hot weather I prefer the lighter texture of whole milk, and when the weather starts getting chillier and grayer I go back to the half & half.

Just a splash of skim milk.

I'd be willing to consider Stevia but it seems rather pricey and rumored to have a licorice after taste....
