There are some half decent instant coffees, but for preference, a good strong black coffee made fresh; no sugar, no cream (occasionally the tiniest drop of milk).
One of God's great gifts to the world.
Aha - I have a fellow sufferer:

Described perfectly - luckily for me, coffee does not appear to be a trigger.

Plain ole black coffee, straight up.
Except sometimes if I go to a Vietnamese place I'll get an iced milk coffee (a serving of espresso + about a finger of condensed milk + stirred up and poured over ice = BLISS).

I drink it black mostly. At home, I prefer to grind the beans myself and use a Senseo one-cup maker, using an adapter to brew my own coffee instead of having to buy their more expensive pods. I also use a French press if I feel like dealing with all the extra work. LOL Have a couple of stove top aluminum espresso pots (small and large), an espresso/cappuccino maker, a 12-cup Mr. Coffee, and I also use instant that I mix with powdered creamer.  But I mostly stick to the Senseo for a quick, easy cup. I'll take coffee of almost any kind, except flavors. I do not like flavored coffee at all. Closest I get is the rare cafe mocha when it's cold and I want more caffeine than a hot chocolate offers.

Cappuccino, wet. But it is split pretty well with regular coffee or London Fog (or Earl Grey Latte according to chairman Starbuck).
Mmmmmm, coffee....

Hazelnut coffee is good.
I generally prefer espresso with a bit of sugar.

I like girly-man coffee myself (and no Zima or "fruit beer" can be found in my fridge). Incidentally, the most popular creamer among the enlisted men on one of my submarine trips was the hazelnut creamer. I invite you to call those guys girly-men.  |
Those guys are girly-men and you can pass that on for me.

I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?
