I usually take my coffee black, whether it's from the technivorm or the nespresso.
Looking for a change of pace, it seems that adding cinnamon or nutmeg is popular.
I tried cinnamon. I don't get it. It doesn't dissolve and it tends to just either stick to the sides of the mug or clump up. I end up drinking / chewing clumps of cinnamon at the end. Either I'm doing it wrong or I just don't find the appeal.
I'll try nutmeg hopefully with better results.

Bourbon, Baileys, Kahlua, cocoa mix - all already regulars for night time coffee.
Adding cinnamon to the basket instead of the mug - I'll try that tip.

That makes it into a cafe mocha, doesn’t it? I treat myself to that once in a while with some whipped cream.

We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual."

I drink coffee black 99% of the time. But in the winter I do like to add Nestle's hot chocolate mix, and a bit of sugar. I have also added maple syrup, and malted milk. I can't drink regular hot chocolate anymore, it has to have coffee in it.

I am a weak man when it comes to how I like my coffee. I usually doll it up pretty good with a fancy creamer, as I can't stomach it naturally. My son likes a strong black coffee and occasionally he will put in a little spiced caramel for flavor.
