Whats the cream you put in coffee ?!


Question: Whats the cream you put in coffee ?
What does it taste like with the cream?

Answers:

It depends on what exactly is the product you're using. The best thing I ever tasted was coffee with cream we used to skim off the top of fresh milk from a local dairy. Heavy cream from the store is comparable, although somehow that fresh cream was just more decadent.
To save on saturated fat, though, a lot of people use half-and-half. It still tastes good and is slightly healthier. Some carry this idea further and use milk, whether full or reduced fat-to me you might as well drink it black.
Then you have your nondairy creamers such as Coffee Mate. The liquid form is very popular because it comes in lots of different flavors and is highly sweetened. These products are made from various vegetable oils and taste like chemicals to me. The powdered versions are even worse in my opinion.
But heavy cream in fresh brewed flavorful coffee, with or without sugar as you please, is delightful.



Powdered stuff, sweetened creamers, & prepackaged creamers are extremely popular in convenience stores. Most coffee shops will offer half & half and skim milk stored in some kind of pitcher or thermal pitcher to keep it cool, in addition to the powdered non-dairy creamers. Some will also offer whole milk (like most Starbucks locations, for example).

I prefer whole milk over anything else. Otherwise, I just alternate between skim milk and half & half. I only used non-dairy powdered stuff when I'm on road trips (usually because there are no better options in the store) and I never use sweeteend or prepackaged creamers.

Creamer :) They have liquid and powder versions. I prefer the liquid in Hazelnut. My absolute favorite way to drink coffee is to use a packet of hot cocoa for each 6-8 oz serving of coffee. So, basically, I make my hot cocoa with coffee instead of just water. And then I like to put hazelnut flavoring in it. Yummy!! :)



Whipped cream? It doesn't really give your coffee an additional taste. Some people say it makes your coffee less bitter but it doesn't seem so to me.



I use fat-free French vanilla. Quite tasty, more so since I use fresh-ground coffee.



It is so awesome with cream in it coffee I love it that is the only way I will drink coffee is with cream



None. Cream makes it taste nasty. Sometimes I pour some soy milk in it.



Irish cream. It tastes very sweet!



I use half n half
