As to the second: daily, more or less.

Personally I prefer a good dark roast, and if it’s a good blend (also for medium or light roast) I want it black.

Outside of dedicated coffeehouses though, most coffee out & about isn’t what I consider “good” (I guess I’m a snob?:-P), so I usually add sugar & creamer.

(Pro-Tip: combine black coffee with a pastry for the ultimate snack, i.e. the sugar doesn’t need to be poured directly into the liquid! The juxtaposition of the bitter and sweet really works well.:-)

I can’t stand Starbucks coffee regardless though, so if needed I’ll get a mocha. I’d sooner trust a McDonald’s coffee though - seriously: b/c Lavazza is great!

It’s such a personal choice though - what do you like?

    95% of my coffee consumption is HEB own-brand K cups. My nearest store has a half dozen or so different flavors, each named after a different city in TX. I rotate through flavors when I restock.

    I’m not super picky. I get that because it’s cheap and convenient.

      “cheap and convenient” is certainly a style, and if it works for you then imho that’s just as valid as any of the other snobbier options:-).

      Hrm, perhaps we can call that style “Zen”:-).

      What’s your favorite? I prefer the San Antonio flavor. I also prefer decaf nowadays, and I wish they had some of their other flavors in pre-ground form.

        I don’t honestly have a favorite? I don’t have a super refined palate, so I can’t tell much of a difference between the flavors. I’m sure there is one, it’s just beyond my limited ability to perceive.
