Coffee/Drink Lovers, What are your favorite combos?

Anything really but I'd love to hear some specific drink orders that most people haven't thought of yet. Get creative with it. 🥰💞. So I bought a shaved ice maker for $20 on Amazon and this is the best thing ever. I freeze coffee, milk, put it through the shaved ice maker and then add vanilla syrup. It's so good. Also if you haven't tried it I highly recommend "fairy milk" - just plain milk mixed with flavored syrup. I usually add rose or vanilla syrup.

    Also for those that have a hard time getting themselves to drink plain water - water with a splash of coconut milk and flavored syrup is pretty good. Dutch bros has a menu for it, they call it their "h20" drinks but of course it's much easier to just make at home.

    You fancy, Miss!! I need to try that from you when I see you then 😆

    My favorite will be affogato. Meh! Call it a lazy drink… basically shots of espresso poured on top of ice cream. 😮‍💨

  • RebeccaKeRebeccaKe

    @natasya148 I have chocolate cake syrup and banana bread syrup too if you want some shaved ice when you come over 🥰

  • RebeccaKeRebeccaKe

    Ooo espresso on ice cream sounds amazing. I couldn't handle that much caffeine though. I wonder what a decaf version of that would look like. 🤔

    @RebeccaKe Banana please and thank you!! 🥰

  • RebeccaKeRebeccaKe

    Is it horrible if I'm about to go have some of that for breakfast? 🤣 @natasya148

  • RebeccaKeRebeccaKe

    It's so low calorie too, I love it

  • SurgeManSurgeMan

    Regular black, or cafe con leche or Cuban coffee for me

  • disneysamuraidisneysamurai

    I just drink black tea. Free refills at Starbucks

    There's a place near me that has London Fog. Early Grey + milk. It's my goto drink there.

  • SpicyNSweetSpicyNSweet

    I love London Fogs! @IronicMaiden a place not far from me does a homemade blueberry lavender syrup that makes the most incredible London fog!

  • SpicyNSweetSpicyNSweet

    I have an espresso machine at home because many years ago I was a barista, so I know how to use it and I like making drinks for myself and my kids and my friends 🥰
    One of my favorites is an iced Americano with cream and a little sugar free syrup. White chocolate is great with coffee, or English toffee or hazelnut🙌

    Do us fancy tea drinkers count? 😂
    Beyond the gazillion variations of chai, I also love a London Fog @IronicMaiden . There's a bakery near me that offers a Paris Fog, which is a London Fog with strawberry added.
    At home and work I mostly drink Barry's Gold or Irish breakfast with creamer/oatmilk and stevia. I have some Lady Grey which is a fruitier, lighter Earl Grey, and a lavender Earl Grey. I have a whole host of herbals, too.
    I kinda wanna try the dirty soda/tea trend. I know some of my teas would go really well with a cream soda, root beer, or even sprite.

    The place I go to also does some italian sodas. Not an extensive selection, but a few. I'm sure if I asked, I could get tea with a bit of syrup. It might even get added to the menu. And they also have an assortment of teas you can get by the pot, so it's not just Earl Grey I could do that with.

    Most of the time I'm a boring coffee drinker. Coffee, sugar, cream. That's it.

    For me, it's grinding the beans myself before brewing and how I make the coffee - Tanzanian Peaberry with a French press for example. Sometimes I'll get out the bag of Kopi Luwak coffee beans for tax clients who want to try something different ... then I tell them where it comes from and most don't want me to make it lol

    But everybody poops, @Jubal 😂

    My go to at work lately is a Fairlife protein chocolate mik mixed with an expresso shot and stirred with cappucino foam.

    Actually if coffee is not dark black with bitter taste, it won't be a real coffee. As I have a Turkish background, my coffee should be super strong without any addition, and the same for tea. Actually, we make our tea as black and strong as our coffee.

  • [Deleted User]MasonDixonCuddl (deleted user)

    Best of both worlds for me is a simple mocha (chocolate syrup in coffee) with milk. Whole milk if possible. The at-home substitute is a packet of hot chocolate in my favorite mug with ... you get the rest. It's yummy every time!

    I drink a lot of coffee. I usually have 1 cup with Cacao Bliss mixed in it every morning (Cacao, Lion’s mane mushroom, MCT oil, turmeric, and a couple other things). Then I drink another 2-3 cups black.

    I also have a subscription to a “coffee of the month club” that sends me a bag of fair trade, whole bean coffee from another different country every month.

  • RebeccaKeRebeccaKe

    @cuddlefaery I'm curious about the dirty soda/tea trend 😍 what combos do you think would be good? I've never heard of it.

  • RebeccaKeRebeccaKe

    @JohnR1972 have you noticed any positive effects from the cacao bliss? I've been curious about the mushroom add ins. A lot of people seem to really love lions mane.

  • RebeccaKeRebeccaKe

    I have a vegan friend that makes an amazing lion mane steak

    Oh no, no, no - that's the patented trademark catchphrase of someone else on here. Every time you say that, you have to pay him a wooden nickel.

    I’m a strict green tea drinker.. until the fall! I go pumpkin latte crazy! The best one I’ve ever had was a hot pumpkin latte with 2 espresso shots, maple syrup, caramel, and skim milk. From a place called the Snowy Owl in Cape Cod.

  • [Deleted User]Adam_Prof (deleted user)

    I drink one cup of coffee a day in the morning then green tea for the rest of day, and I don't add sugar to any kind of drinks. But, I keep a variety of drinks in my kitchen so I can be prepared for any guest to prepare what they like.

  • trysdettrysdet

    I like the he cheddar or pizza Combos pretzel snack

    My aunt gave me a keurig recently and it’s become a problem. Used to have to add quite a bit of milk and sugar. Now I’m drinking 3-4 cups a day, black. It’s the first thing I think of when I wake up! I don’t even like it!

    @RebeccaKe
    I was already in good health so I can’t say the Cacao Bliss “fixed” anything with me but I will soon be turning 60 and I am still “medication free” and have more energy than when I was in my 40s. I know Cacao has a lot of beneficial properties including boosting stem cell production in adults about 3 to 4x higher than people who do not consume it.

    Bottom line is I cannot prove it is doing anything but I am enjoying great health / no mobility issues or joint pain. How much is genetics vs environment vs Cacao? I have no way of saying but I am going to keep on taking it 😊
