I'm not really a huge fan of coffee and when I do drink it, I prefer to drink a flavoured one.

My favourite flavour is Chocolate Raspberry. I also like Butter Rum.

The last time I was at Safeway I bought some Chocolate Raspberry beans which I ground there because while I have a coffee grinder, I suck at grinding and tend to over do it.

I'm sitting here enjoying a cup of fresh brewed Chocolate Raspberry. It's so yummy!

Anyone else like flavoured coffee? What flavour?

I really prefer regular. Once in a while I buy the White Russian coffee beans. We like it alot. My husband always flavors his coffee with French Vanilla creamer.

I like normal unflavored coffee with a little bit of milk (whole milk if I want a rare treat
).
But, when I do want a flavored coffee, I like Hazelnut

I don't like for the coffee itself to be flavored---it always tastes a bit "off". I prefer to add flavored creamers to plain coffee. I like hazelnut
.

I love my coffee & cream in the morning! I can't handle the artificially flavored ones, though, they taste terrible to me. I would consider trying a naturally-flavored additive but not brewed in my coffee-maker.

No coffee for me. I adore the smell, hate the taste.

I drank a whole pot of Chocolate Raspberry!!!


I use a large cappuccino cup, and drank 3 of them!!

I'll be taking a sleeping aid before heading to bed, that's for sure!! I usually only have decaf instant coffee, but tonight I was craving something chocolaty and decided to go with the flavouredcoffee, which unfortunately isn't decaf

I'm more of a tea drinker myself. Actually, I'm more of a water person. But for hot beverages it's usually Tetley tea over coffee. And even my tea drinking isn't on a regular basis either. Maybe a couple cups per week. I much prefer plain ordinary tap water.

My thoiughts exactly - nothing beats a good dark roast.

I usually buy espresso roast whole beans and grind fresh every morning although I do venture back into regular roast sometimes for a change but always whole bean. Have to be careful what brand, not all brands work with my water - some are just plain bitter and tasteless and others just make hot brown water no matter how much coffee is used but that applies to any location - you have to find the brand that works best with your water.

with a dash of chocolate powder
. I do like to change it up though. This last Christmas I got a Keurig
and I just love it. So I enjoy trying the different types of coffee made for Keurigs. I have to drink decaf though and wish there were more flavors offered in decaf.

I do like vanilla lattes but I don't care for flavored coffee. For several months now I have been drinking Komodo Dragon from Starbucks. It's a strong coffee from Indonesia. I buy whole bean and grind just enough at a time to brew one pot.

I tend to be a tea drinker, though for the last few weeks I've been drinking coffee again. I need to raise my blood pressure - don't know if it's helping.


But I can't stand flavors - either flavored coffee or flavored cream or whatever that is.

Sometimes I like it black - other times I'm in the mood for what I think of as "dessert" coffee - and I'll add milk and sugar. Either way - I like it strong. If I'm out, I get espresso or cappuccino (no cinnamon!)

I like plain old Arabica in the morning, but frequently drink flavored coffee in the afternoon or evening (decaf). Instead of buying flavored beans or creamer, I add a teaspoon of Monin syrup to a cup of hand-filtered Arabica. I usually have vanilla, Irish cream, amaretto and/or caramel syrups at home. One bottle lasts for weeks. At work I sometimes use little packs of flavored sugar (vanilla, caramel or amaretto) called Arometti.

Count me in among the Keurig fans! My favorite is Timothy's Italian Blend, which is just a straight forward coffee. No flavors. And I drink it black.

French Vanilla or Irish Cream flavored coffees for me. We have tried Chocolate Raspberry but don't like it much. We use flavored powdered creamers too. But I tried Bailey's Irish Cream creamer (non-alcoholic) and it is very yummy

Sometimes what I do if I don't have flavoured coffee beans is to just use regular coffee and add some almond extract to the grounds before turning on the coffee maker. I also add some almond extract to my instant coffee sometimes too.

You can use other extracts too: Maple, orange, vanilla, lemon or a blend of several.
