[b]I just tried oat milk in my homemade cold brew coffee and I have to say I love it! I usually have almond milk or prepared creamer. However, I really like the taste of oat milk in my coffee! I think I'll learn to make it at home (it's many mucho expensive!). [center][emoji=brown gem size=1][b] What kinds of stuff do you put in your coffee or tea or hot cocoa or whatnot? Flavors, creams, milks, unfettered, over ice, with whipped cream, or even with chili powder (goes marvelously in hot cocoa!)?[/b][emoji=brown gem size=1][/center]

ive only drinked tea with sugar like all my life. lemon juice? was an addition a few times but thats as far as it goes. so just sugar

I can't drink coffee, but I usually don't add anything to my tea. I used to add sugar, but as I get older I find myself preferring it plain.

I normally just out a ton of milk in my hot cocoa. I put coffee creamer in it for a while—but then my grandmother moved out and there was no one to supply me and my siblings with coffee creamer XP Marshmallows are another addition I do most of the time (my hot cocoa mix actually has mini marshmallows in it already).

@PinkRose06

I love marshmallows in my hot drinks! I've even put them in coffee, but mostly hot cocoa!

And the more marshmallows, the merrier!

@SocklessWonder
I agree with that statement 100%. Marshmallows and chocolate are the b e s t.

Mwa ha ha...

FOOLS! YOU HAVE UNLEASED MY TRUE POWER! MWA HA HA HA HA HA *puts on mad scientist costume*

*Ahem* Yes hi hello I like to add things to my coffee.

1) Normally I just want a cup so it's cream and salt. Maybe pepper. Haven't tried chilli but thank you for the suggestion.
2) Coffee cheese. It's one of my favorites, but it's rare to find it on the markets unfortunately and I don't have the patience to make it myself. :/ It's nice though. Local thing, it has a similar texture to halloumi and adds a very mild creamy flavor.
3) Vanilla ice cream. Nuff said.
4) Different flavors of jam.
5) I've yet to make alcohol FROM coffee but adding half a teaspoon of alcohol to it is not bad. Too much is nasty though, it's much better as a very mild spice than as a way to actually get affected.
6) Jams of all flavors. I'm partial to cloudberry, personally.
7) Egg yolks. It can be added to the drink itself (stir while adding, or you'll end up with clumps of cooked egg lol) or to the grounds before brewing (it removes some of the bitterness, gives a flavor more similar to coldbrew though not exactly, and the traditional way to do this is in a pot rather than in a brewing machine).
8) Saffron/cardamom, yum yum yum.

Eh I'll probably think of more stuff as soon as I hit submit

... ah, yes. Roasted everything goes in coffee. Roasted rice, roasted barley, roasted rowan berries... they're pretty decent as coffee substitutes too (I prefer the rowan ones) but it can be a nice spice in regular coffee too, if you want coffe specifically but want to lower the caffeine content. I'll stop nerdranting now I swear

i was born with natural caffeine immunity so i just drink my coffee black. i like the flavor nhkgjbngjnb

if i'm feeling fancy i'll make an iced coffee with almond milk and stevia. or add a dash of cocoa powder to hot coffee. white mocha is also very nice as an occasional treat

as for tea? i can't stand it. never found a tea i've liked drinking. i'll bake with matcha powder and that's it. i do feel like i'm missing out because there's so many tea flavors but i don't like any of them ):

I put vanilla almond milk creamer in my coffee (which is impossible to find around the holidays) or i mix some almond milk and a hot chocolate packet if I'm out of creamer. For tea, I only add honey. I love to make hot chocolate with cashew milk (since its super creamy) and add crushed up peppermints.
