Coffee and Tea Talk - 2022

yum!
not drinking any coffee or tea at the moment, may have some green tea later.

 

[Margot Lane]

Treating myself to a cup of REAL coffee, been gardening nonstop. Ooo, it’s such a thrill!

 

[Margot Lane]

…I’ve always wondered if other people have a “coffee song.” Mine is “Sugar Takes her Coffee Black,” by Wendy James (written by Elvis Costello).

Would there be chunks in the powder mix? I don't think I would like that since I would be adding coffee and making a hot drink with it.

There's usually tapioca beads. It's been a long time since I had bubble tea, and I liked it, but making it hot mixed with coffee does not sound like a good idea.

I completely agree! It's a tea drink so mixing it with coffee would not taste very good.

Has anybody tried Bubble Tea? What does it taste like? W Willowy have you tried it? Pic below:

I haven't tried it but I assume it's a base of sweetened milk tea with tapioca boba. I don't really like tapioca boba though---too chewy. I love popping boba, but it wouldn't be possible in a dried mix.

I wouldn't mix that with coffee. And I don't know if tapioca boba would melt or not.

Been there, done that but fortunately only the black coffee this morning. Hairball clean up was after dinner last night.

What is real coffee?

Just playing around with that Lipton Horchata Powder today, trying to find out how I like it prepared. First cup went south! I'll try again later.

What is real coffee?

Good question. I have a hunch but would like to know too. Maybe Margot Lane can expound further.

NOT DECAF.

Black, hot, and ...

Due to various things this morning that needed to be done outside in cold rain ...

Really necessary

 

[maggiedemi]

Half Cup Water, Half Cup Take Two Sweetened Original Barley Milk, 1/4 Cup Nuts .com Vanilla Cappuccino Powder, 2TB Nutpods Cookie Butter Creamer. Yum! I don't mind this Erythritol sweetener at all in the creamer, it's good.

Dark roast black REAL coffee as Margot Lane would say. Two cups, one in the a.m. and another in the p.m.

 

[furmonster mom]

Lately I’ve been having my coffee with a dash of cinnamon, cayenne, and a splash of vanilla, sweetened slightly with monkfruit… and a small dollop of cream.

Nice! I love spicy foods, but never think to spice up my coffee.

Drinking-- Half Cup Water, Half Cup Thrive Market Oat Milk, 1/4 Cup Nuts .com Vanilla Cappuccino, 1TB Lipton Horchata, 1/2TB Taster's Choice French Roast Instant Coffee. Microwaved 2 minutes 20 seconds, added powders last 30 seconds. Pretty good.

Cold, damp and rain expected all day - just had my first cup of dark roast black coffee and looking forward to another.

I may need that second cup of coffee sooner rather than later since I feel a migraine coming on from the weather. Coffee really helps alleviate the pain for me.
