I’m just finishing my 3rd coffee of the day (I really need to cut down again!) and just wondered what hot drink other people prefer? Are you a coffee drinker or do you prefer tea or perhaps you like herbal tea (good flavour recommendations welcome!) or something else? How do you take your tea/coffee/other. I drink strong black coffee with no milk or sugar but with half cold water due to sensitive gums; I don’t drink tea but do drink herbal teas depending on the flavour, lemon, ginger and manuka honey is a current favourite but peppermint and liquorice is a recent fail on the herbal tea front!
Coffee, strong, black, unsweetened. I really don't like tea & never have.
As a child I had milk & two sugars in the coffee, but when I started making it myself I remember thinking that making instant coffee without milk and sugar from a recently boiled and re-boiled kettle took about half the time of making one with milk etc, and as a bonus took away the impact of the risk of running out of milk/sugar - so I switched, and I've been that way since!
I haven't ever properly counted but I'm sure it's easily 8 instant coffees a day!
Another person who drinks good coffee
I used to take milk and sugar but the fridge is now the dining room (it’s too tall to fit under the work surface) so it just became too much hassle to keep going to get it! I stopped taking sugar last year when I joined slimming world online.
What brand of coffee do you drink?
You should! It can be expensive but it's on offer quite regularly. But it's as close to tasting like real coffee that instant can get
Bizarrely, despite being a Nescafe drinker for years, I have never tried Nescafe azera! I must try it!
If it has to be instant, Nescafé azera is the only way to go : )
Nescafé is good! Need to buy another coffee machine though! Actually I might go and get one today
I was brought up on Nescafe in the 70s and 80s once my mum ditched Mellow Birds (why she went there originally I do not know!) and we buy the big tubs of Gold now!
Still can't beat a decent double espresso from a real coffee shop though, and I'll happily have two of them either side of a cake course!
Snap! Love a bit of instant Nescafe! Preferably gold.
No worries, the notifications went completely to pot for a few days!
When it's instant, Nescafe usually. And it's usually instant at home / work because I've never found a way to recreate the taste of a good coffee from a coffee shop.
Sorry I only just saw your reply - notifications really aren't working well at the moment!
