In the early mornings before school starts ^^ My favorite's a white hot mocha, but now I put peppermint in it! haha it's sooooooo good! My friends and I would always walk over to the local Starbucks in the morning before the bell rang and hang out on their comfy couches there =D
Before heading out to work. I ritually enjoy a good, strong black coffee - aromatic, thick and robust. A surefire way to kick start my day... ^^ Mmmm, just heavenly. As a lunchtime treat, I usually go for something cold like a Mocha Frappucino or an Ice Latte... Its dang hot over here in the afternoons, so yeah a sip of either of these cold, addictive beverages usually makes me a very happy woman. YUM!
Easy answer... strong, fresh, dark, and straight-up in the cup! I'm so picky about the beans and the roast that I always roast my own beans. AA Kenya is my hands down favorite bean to brew daily but I like Ethiopian and Tanzanian peaberry too. A special treat when I am out is a shot=in-the-dark. That's a dark roast coffee with a shot of espresso in it. No cream no sugar.... aaaaahhhhh
Well, aaronluis26, I love it as a cup of ice coffee! I have a monster size mug. I fill it 1/4 full with boiling, hot, water, then I put a whole scoop of Mocha: Cappuccino Mix and stir it to dissolve the glorious blend in the water. Then I go over to the freezer and shove the mug up to the ice maker and add the rest of the mug space with crushed ice. It smells so luscious- freshly cooled in the ice; and tastes so good it must be a sin!!! ~~~Drool~~~
I have almost burned through a whole giant sized can of the Cappucchino mix from Costco this summer! Oh, man! ! gotta go make some right now! ~~~Drool~~~ @,@ I sip on my monster size mug o' ice cappucchino all day long!
You used a GIANT cup? When I was a kid I looked for a small coffee cup with no handle. I can't explain why, it was an urge. I finally found one in Belgium and it was all I would use. When leaving, I packed it so carefully brcause it was my treasure. When I unpacked, it was missing. I finally found some Japanese tea cups on amazon that had no handles and ordered them. Now all is well in the world.
Wow! It was like- in your chromosomes/DNA to find the right cup for the beverage! i got goosebumps on my arms just thinking how family genetics forced you (like the geese that fly south for the winter) to align yerself with yer granpa! glad ya replaced a treasured item so you canenjoy caffeine properly, now, CA! Yep, I loooove my big mug! I nearly hardly need refils! Ever! Ha!
Your favorite coffee?
What is the best way you enjoy a cup of coffee?

Hey, I just found a homemade bean roast video that I put on here, CA! I never considered roasting them myself! That sounds fun!

Strangly, my dad showed me my grandfathers coffee cup (that he always used) and it is just like the one I now use. Life is so amazing.
