I'll add a scoop of coco powder and a dash of cinnamon to my coffee grounds. Gives it a deeper chocolate flavor with a spicy touch. If that's a bit too much, just a dash of either to your coffee cup would do.
Sometimes I’ll throw a cardamom pod into the cup before making a latte
In November/December I add eggnog to my espresso (either steamed or cold) and top it with nutmeg.
I’m going to try the lemon 🍋— thanks!
buddy of mine rinses out his espresso cup dregs with cognac
A 16 oz Dark Roast Drip Coffee, black, and 1-2 shots of Espresso. It's called a Red Eye, or a Shot In The Dark.
Eat some raspberries before drinking coffee. It'll change the taste in an interesting way.
I use honey to sweeten my coffee. Sometimes I'll add some Butterscotch Schnapps if its a cold winter.
Not as out of the ordinary: butter. I prefer grass fed cow's butter.
I add either of these two, if I am feeling fancy:
- Passion Fruit syrup (10ml or something); or
- Guava Juice (1 shot)
I heard some part of Northern Italy they add red wine to their coffee.
A splash of fernet
Honey is definitely my favorite addition to hot, black coffee. A shake of cinnamon or nutmeg is also very good.
Taking inspiration from cocktails? An Expressed orange peel in your coffee will blow your mind. Chocolate, walnut, orange, or some other compatible cocktail bitters will also amp up some coffee.
I like my coffee like I like my women, caffeinated, highly caffeinated. And room temperature. But like a room that's not too hot, not too cold.
Maple syrup 🍁 started one day when we ran out of simple syrup and never went back.
A splash of Cointreau.
That bit of orange adds complex flavors to good coffee.
Ground long pepper. It's delicious as fuck.
A mild cigar.
