Coke in the summer, coffee in the winter.
With cream, no sugar.
In a non-paper container. I hate the paper cups. They lose heat too fast. Metal car cups are nice. <font color="white"> And what else are fpp for. </font>

If you don't like straight espresso or coffee black and unsweetened you really don't love coffee.

Just because you like something more with a bunch of sugar added doesnt mean you dont like it.

Completely different. The sickeningly sweet and overpowering stuff that's on 90% of the Starbucks menu doesn't do anything to enhance the taste of the coffee. It's there to overpower it. People who say, "omg i looove coffee! i don't know what i'd do without my caramel macchiato lol!" do not like coffee. They like liquified candy corn. Which is fine and I have no problem with that, but it's just not coffee. It's like someone saying, "omg i love steak! i just had a double quarter pounder yesterday lol!"

GOT, are you saying you don't like any of the starbucks beans to take home and grind yourself? I've found that I really enjoy Gold Coast and Arabia Mocha-Java. I'm having the former right now. When I go to Starbucks, I've always enjoyed their caffe latte, or if I know they tend to burn the milk at that store, I can just get a doppio espresso macchiato-- nobody can screw that up.

COFFEE POSER!!!! straight double shot is "black eye".
heheehhehehehehe

ANd yes, i do like red-eyes straight up with no milk or sugar... but my stomach has eroded i think... THe milk in the latte/cappucino sort of takes out that acid aspect, as i always triple/quad shot my lattes....

I think you're missing the point. It's fine to like lattes, cappuccinos, etc. (and I do), and I often get those b/c of the stomach issues you describe. The point is rather that if you onlylike coffee with dairy/sugar, then you really don't love coffee. You can still like it better than black coffee.

I love coffee/espresso, at home I usually get cafe bustelo/morro/pico espresso roast for both coffee and espresso. I tried the illy espresso pods and thought they were disgusting, not a big fan of most american store bought coffee grounds either. the cheaper cuban/puerto rican stuff is much better, IMO.

also I don't think starbucks makes very good espresso at all, although I do like their coffee better than most.
