Black, though at Mexican restaurants when they stick some cinnamon in there it doesn't hurt either....

Straight espresso, greek/turkish coffee, or french press is my favorite... but, drip coffee can be plenty delicious as well, just usually a bit weak on flavor....

I do prefer lower acidity beans though as they seem to be much easier on my stomach vs stuff like Kenya or Costa Rica

So, usually for me it's Sumatra beans :)

With milk and sugar. I got some sweetened flavored creamer lately, it's really good.

So what if I want my coffee to taste like coffee-flavored candy. I love the taste of coffee but only with sugar.

However, I will sometimes have iced coffee with cream but no sugar.

black

And black means I want to be able to patch my driveway with whatever's leftover in the pot the next day.

I dont think I've ever had a stronger coffee than Vietnamese and I've tried looking for one. Espresso shots are about as close as I can get to Viet coffee that I can get at a restaurant but even that fails in comparison.

Ive had to settle for espresso shots as they are the only thing commonly available anywhere =(

its funny because it 'should' be so girlie with all the milk, but its still very strong

I drink black coffee mostly, becuase well, drinking that all the time would be expensive

I stopped drinking viet coffee cuz it wasn't strong enough

Aznanarchy- espresso shots with simple sugar and milk is a good replacement that is commonly available.

I drink Turkish coffee.

A Serbian coworker of mine got me hooked on Turkish coffee. He has family in Chicago that have a coffee roasting business and brings me in some of the best coffee I've ever had. And yes, it is almost like a powder it's ground so fine. I also pretty good success running that through my Keurig with the reusable filter pack. Any other grind from my burr grinder yields a pretty crappy cup of joe. That turkish grind makes a much stronger cup.

But nothing beats that pot boiled style of the traditional Turkish coffee.

Black. I'll make the occasional cappuccino for my daughter with frothed milk and sugar, and I'll make one for myself, but that's no more than once a week.

Black. Unless it's from Starbucks, then it's either not at all or with a packet of sugar.

Big fan of Caribou.
