<font color="purple">WARNING: It's probably very (VERY) unhealthy for you. My ultra-special coffee brew!

1.) Fill a cup (like, a foam cup) about 3/4 of the way with coffee
2.) Add cream/milk/coffee mate/ half &amp; half/WHATEVER you but in your coffee if you hate it black until it's realatively light in color.
5.) ADD 5 REALLY BIG SCOOPS OF SUGAR (with a regular spoon.)

I had two cups of the stuff, I added so much sugar to my coffee that it tasted like drinking some kinda liquid candy. My ultra-special coffee brew! I added so much sugar because I hate how bitter coffee always seems to come out.

My poooor pancreas/kidneys/digestive tract.
They had to take all that sugar at once!

Alas, I can't convice anyone to drink my almost disgustingly-sweet coffe. Maybe if I ever find myself in the position to make my own coffee again like that, I'll reduce it to like...3 scoops. It's almost a little too sweet after that first cup.</font>

I like really sweet coffee, too! My favorite is Starbucks (which is quite strong and bitter to me) with a bit of skim milk and 4 or 5 Splendas! My friends gag when I tell them this. But ohhh, it gets me up in the morning!

When I first started drinking coffee - I put a ton of sugar in it, just because I didn't like the taste. But once I got used to it, I cut way back on the sugar and now drink it black or sometimes with a little milk. I have to say my coffee consumption has gone way up since I joined AA and most of it's really BAD coffee - I swear there's some secret competition between groups in my area as to who can make the strongest / bitterest coffee.

But one of the perks of my new job is we get free coffee with these little single serving pouches that brew just one cup at a time, so you can pick your flavour.

sounds good to me. another good one is to make packaged hot chocolate with coffee instead of water, add a little cream, and whipped cream on top, not the healthiest in the world but super yummy.

There are other sweeteners that can give you a more healthy (and less guilty?) drink than adding sugar. Splenda doesn't have the aftertaste in hot drinks like sweet n low does. Stay away from equal (the stuff in the blue packet makes you "blue" (depresses you.)

I think good icecream is healthier than any fake creamer etc too. My ultra-special coffee brew!

I have mixed my Secure chocolate shake mix with coffee My ultra-special coffee brew! Hadn't thought about adding whipped topping! My ultra-special coffee brew!

I saw this had the title coffee in it and I had to look. My brain automatical goes COFFEE!!! when I see the word..I am a coffee lover extrodinar!! Whipped topping is good..I take some chocolate syrup to mine when I drink it after dinner so it is sweet and full of chocolate yummyness. Oh and there are these awesome little things called mini moo's they are little creamer things I get when I go to this one coffee shop in town..I stuff a bunch in my pockets or in my purse so I have them when I make my coffee at home..I feel guilty but they see me do it and never say anything so I asume they don't care. Sorry got a little excited..well dang now I want some coffee.

Yes, Silversparrow; in the winter I add hot chocolate mix to mine! I add all the things you do Kaika (well, maybe not that much sugar :-) and hot chocolate mix.

But now I'm getting a bit tamer; I've switched my half & half for fat free half & half (a misnomer if ever I invented one; how can you have fat free cream?).

There are less bitter coffees. When the pot of coffee was made matters too; if it's old it's going to be more bitter I think.
