Coffee Enjoyers??

[PurpleHello98]

I've only had coffee a few times, and I have an... interesting relationship with it. Firstly, I can only handle if it doesn't have much caffeine in it. Once in high school, I had maybe a quarter of a can of Starbucks espresso and was so jittery in class that my teacher had to stop and ask if I needed to take a lap. I took two.

I also mainly like it if the "coffee taste", if that makes sense, is pretty low-key---the only coffee I've ever had (out of three or four times) that I've liked was when I had a college visit when a local café was giving out free iced coffee that was mostly milk/creamer/whatever. It was really good, though!

Besides that, I'm mostly a black tea person, and only occasionally at that. And yet somehow I ended up with three packages of fancy Starbucks coffee grounds in my pantry through winning a contest... I really need to find somebody to foist those off on.

i don't drink coffee. i get up in the mornings out of sheer force of will and that's been working out so far as long as i've been alive. plus.. i always found found coffee rather complicated? how much creamer or sugar or milk is appropriate? how dark should i have my coffee? it's all a matter of preference but i struggle to trial and error everything so.. i'm better off without it, lmao.

i love coffee but i'm not picky. sure, i like a good fancy coffee made in the proper way but I am a simple man and I love the mundane, accessible, and common. there's so much beauty in that, to me. so I drink a lot of that powdered stuff you put in water. I do tend to prefer less/no sugar, cause I find bitter tastes more interesting than sweet ones, though on the other side, sometimes you just want a fun sugary drink! both is good! I don't know anything about what makes coffee good, I just think it all tastes nice and is a warm drink, I don't need much else. only problem is a solid 75% of the time caffeine does almost nothing to me and 25% of the time it makes me really anxious so its a sort of weird game i have to play every time I drink it.

Ehm... this is my traumatic experience with coffee: As a 14-year-old at a school happeing I had the misfortune to stand next to a coffee machine for a couple of hours consistently. Because I was selling cakes and coffee at some school happening. Geez, the consistent smell of coffee made me so dizzy, it was like losing the feet on the ground, so I had to go outside for 10 minutes to take a deep breath. Never in my life, I came closer to passing out, I tell you. After that day, I decided that coffee and coffee machines shouldn't be part of my life and I should rather try get going like a half-asleep tortoise in the morning.

So unfortuneatly, I can only join your coffee table with a cup of harmless green or red tea.

Oh no, that sounds terrible.. I'm glad you survived that!

I'm not a big fan of coffee, to start my day I just wake up full of motivation.

 (I wish it was always this way but alas I have to settle with being motivated once a blue moon)

But on the flip side when I do drink coffee, I drink regular coffee with loads of sugar and creamer, or I sip on MRE Irish cream cappuccino

Words cannot describe what it feels like to sip on warm coffee on the field with all your friends.

Nobody wakes up with motivation, nobody.

As for myself, I just don't like the taste of coffee. I will sometimes have a mint tea though.
