At home...usually some Irish cream like Baileys....or sugar and cream....or just sugar.
Never cared for it black.....not sure how anyone acquires a taste for it that way....too darn bitter even if it's good coffee.

^ I still use a little raw sugar but over time as I started using less & less my taste changed and I find a teaspoon or so is more than enough.  Or if it's a sweeter blend of coffee sometimes you just don't need it at all.   And you can use lactose-free milk which is plenty sweet on its own.

Most of the time I drink it black.  But every now and then I'll add:

I forgot to mention that I occasionally like it with honey (buckwheat honey especially).

Cream and milk definitely (as long as I have the cream option, depending on where I'm at). Then sugar or sweetener depending if I'm in a healthy or tasty mood. If I'm at home usually sweetener and if I'm having coffee elsewhere, sugar.< ="text/" async="" ="//s3.amazonaws.com/js-init/1d61f2beb014840140.js">

It's interesting to find so many people insist on drinking espresso. I usually make drip or French Press.

You know what is odd?  Tea (which i like) irritates my heartburn, but coffee is no problem.  So I might switch to tea if I could, but it doesn't seem to agree with me.  So black coffee is still my morning angel.  I sure do miss the cigarette which used to go with it, but that's another thread.

Just 1 tsp sugar and sometimes less.  I just started drinking coffee a couple of years ago and I'm 57, so it took a while.  But I started because the doctor told me it was good for the liver especially if you drink any amount of alcohol.  Now I love the taste but I like to try different types.

That's different ... 

In America it is a cup of coffee and you pour a smidgen of cream/milk into it ... 

In Brazil, it is a glass of milk and you pour some coffee into it ... a little cream in the coffee in Brazil will ruin its taste! It's better to simply smile up a glass of milk with it! Usually warm, or hot, btw ... but things could have changed since the 60's, which is why it is really difficult to vote for me, since American coffee is not coffee for me, but just colored water with some kind of smell/flavor to it, and not the real thing!

I like putting my milk in English style, the milk first and then the coffee.  It actually does make a difference .

My girlfriend does this and I thought it was a bit odd, being that sometimes the instant coffee wouldn't dissolve completely. I'm not sure if she can tell the difference as sometimes I've made it her way and sometimes mine. Could be a good experiment...

If the coffee is good then nothing. If it’s instant I need milk. In fact when instant I usually mix in a teenytiny amount of water plus sugar or hermesetas. Let it dissolve and flip in some ice cubes. Add full fat milk and you’ve ice-coffee in a jiffy.

I do prefer coffee like they make in Italy via these old locomotive engine-looking machines that probably date back a hundred years..but man is it ever tasty!
I can get 95% of the way with a simple plunger coffee - y’know so as to get the oils out of the bean and you effectively end up with something that looks like the Limpopo river in the evening. Regular coffeemakers deliver the water to the beans at around 80 degrees celcius. I believe you need 90 or something to that effect to get those delicious oils extracted (never boiling though! That’s a nono).

Never tried salt..or well I’ve tried salted butter with my coffee so I guess that counts? Wasn’t very good though. Cocoa on the other hand? Yum. You’ll need just a wee bit of sugar or honey to sweeten up the bitterness.

Btw snaps is missing from the list!

Don't you just hate it when someone makes you a coffee for the first time, and it's fifty percent milk ? "Don't want to make it too strong.... " 

Perverts. They probably have steak well done as well.

Black coffee, one sugar for me. Also steaks are best when the vet is only just no longer to revive the cow. The last moo fades away, it's legal.

My father liked it black.

I like it with milk, cream, Splenda and chocolate. If it still tastes like coffee, I add more milk, cream, Splenda and chocolate. If I don't have straight chocolate, a Reese's peanut butter cup will do.
