rocknriot Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I just posted in the "are you a day person or a night person" thread and it got me thinking about one of my favorite things...coffee!! So all of you coffee drinkers out there, what kind of drink do you like? Where do you get it, or do you brew it yourself? If you tried to create the exact kind of person who drinks a ton of Starbucks, it would be me... born in Seattle (the birthplace of Starbucks), living in New York (a Starbucks on every block, always full of people), and studying to be in the fashion industry (where everyone runs on a constant supply of caffeine)! But secretly the taste of pure coffee is too much for me... so I like drinks like mochas! My favorite drinks from Starbucks (try these if you want, they're great!) are white chocolate peppermint mochas, dark cherry mochas, and the "zebra mocha" (half white chocolate, half dark chocolate). These are both delicious! But lately I'm on a diet so I've been getting nonfat mochas instead... :guiltysmiley: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
McChickenwing Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I like Caramel Macchiatos from this coffee place called lasseters. Thats the only thing and place i get coffee, i'm not a big coffee drinker anyways :) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rachiee Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I like drinking Frappuccinos from Starbucks, and I also like lattes (from anywhere) but I don't drink them as much. :P As far as actual coffee goes, I really only drink Starbucks when I have coffee (which is like, once every two months). For some reason I can't drink coffee brewed at home, it just doesn't taste the same as coffee from a cafe :/ (you can probably tell that I have expensive taste) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cornflakes Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I loooooove coffee...but after quitting caffeine freed me of YEARS of migraine suffering, I can't have regular coffee. So once a week, usually on Saturday mornings, I brew myself a pot of Dunkin Donuts decaf that I buy from Wal-Mart. Two sugars, two Coffee-Mate. Ahhhh, it makes life worth living.

hrtbrk Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 The only "coffee" that I drink is Iced Cappuccino from Tim's (which isn't really coffee). Sometimes I'll have a coffee and Bailey's but that's very very rare. 0:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluefeather11 Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Coffee.....hm, can't recall ever liking the stuff. sorry, it's my tastes, not me! * covered by coffeeholics * Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emily Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 Some days, I'm pretty sure I couldn't function without it. I usually drink regular Maxwell House, sometimes Folgers French Vanilla if it's on sale or a flavoured coffee from the supermarket once in awhile. I almost always brew it myself, setting the coffee pot before I go to bed so it's ready when I wake up. In our house, whenever we're going out of town (like literally outside the town borders), we stop at Timmy's first (Tim Hortons for non-Canadians lol). When I'm here at school, I usually make my own, splurging on a Starbucks speciality coffee a few times over the course of the school year. I just can't get over how darn expensive they are. Then I always feel bad if I don't leave something in the tip jar.... I prefer to avoid the whole situation and make my own. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nekodeamos Posted March 27, 2011 Share Posted March 27, 2011 I drink a Sumatran coffee, made by Just Us!, usually. It's delicious, and fair trade, and the roastery is only 65-70 Kilometers away, so we can get the coffee pretty fresh. They also have a nice cafe that makes a great Chai latte and vegetarian wrap.

nerd4lifee Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 mmmmm I love coffee it's so bad XD I like cafe mochas, or medium triple triples from tim hortons :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lia Seeya Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Mmm, all this talk about coffee is making me crave Starbucks! :D I usually go for their seasonal drinks such as Peppermint Latte or Praline Mocha, but my REAL favourite there is Dark Cherry Mocha. Unfortunately, they didn't have it last year. ;___; But, oh well~ Life goes on. XD When it's not Christmas season, I go for the mixed drinks like Honey Orange Latte or something like that. I rarely just get pure coffee. ^_^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
degenius Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 Ever since I started uni I've been drinking more and more coffee! Its kinda bad now that I think about, I'm pretty sure I'm getting tolerate to the caffeine now -_- Well, that just means more coffee!! haha :P I usually get french vanilla's from Tim Hortons, my favourite. I can't actually drink normal coffee though, it has to be flavoured.....Tea is usually a good alternative too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lia Seeya Posted March 28, 2011 Share Posted March 28, 2011 @rocknriot: *high fives* Yay for Starbucks seasonal drinks! :D I wasn't a fan of whatever replaced Dark Cherry Mocha though. :( I missed DCM waaaaay too much. XD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tedhaun Posted March 29, 2011 Share Posted March 29, 2011 If I were to answer this question, I like to drink Dunkin Donuts' coffee. I tend to aim for their Coffee Coolattas, which also gives me that coffee energy. :evo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rose_682 Posted March 30, 2011 Share Posted March 30, 2011 I drink tea. All kinds of tea. And when I do not drink tea, I drink starbucks drinks that are NOT made with a coffee base. :P Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marchigiano Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I work half a block from a Tim Horton's soooo..I'd say I have a coffee/mocha/green tea/ice cap from there at least a couple times a week! I love Timmy's! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phyxius_on Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 Coffee YUCK. I don't drink coffee and I have the odd tea (odd meaning 3 or 4 times a year) camomile. I love water and I drink maybe 1 Dr. Pepper a day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest ErikaChristine Posted April 4, 2011 Share Posted April 4, 2011 I used to drink a ton of coffee, but eventually I got sick of it. :O I'm a total tea person now. My favourite is Lemon Ginger tea. Yum! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Katlyn Posted April 5, 2011 Share Posted April 5, 2011 I actually don't drink coffee, but since I started working in a tea store I've been trying tons of nice flavors of tea! We have a latte macchiato that is soooo yummy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Airiya Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 I worked in both Coffee Bean and Starbucks. I looooooove munching on those chocolate covered espresso beans <3 My favorite coffees are iced ones, I make it custom so sometimes white mocha with a squirt of peppermint. Also love Green Tea lattes~ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

somekaitlin Posted April 11, 2011 Share Posted April 11, 2011 I love coffee, especially black, and every kind of tea I've ever had! My stepmother recently introduced me to korean teas, which are amazing, but recently I can't drink anything with caffeine in it - it makes me fall asleep! Does this ever happen to any of you guys too? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alice ☮ Posted April 12, 2011 Share Posted April 12, 2011 Well, I used to be a huge coffee drinker. Like 4-5 cups a day or more. Then one summer, I worked at Cafe Depot, and they let you make yourself drinks for free. So I basically was constantly making myself some sort of coffee beverage. But then I gave it up, because I was getting heart palpitations, insomnia, anxiety, tremors, etc. xD Now I'm a tea drinker :P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThisIsJ Posted April 13, 2011 Share Posted April 13, 2011 I absolutely love coffee. Starbucks is my favorite - iced with a little bit of whole milk. Every once in a while I'll get a crazy drink from there.. like the Coco Cappuccino or a mocha, but usually I'm happy with just coffee.
