Poll question: What's your favorite coffee creamer?
I like my coffee strong, black, and instant. However my husband takes up most of the fridg with his coffee creamers for his French Press coffee. This weekend I was entice to try his Pumpkin Pie Spice creamer and was surprised at how good I thought it tasted. Now keep in mind I prefer instant coffee to French Pressed. So what's your favorite?

1. Instant? Really?
Well, I voted for vanilla--that's me all the way. I do like all the others, though, on occasion :)

2. Unflavored, because I've never had a flavored creamer
that doesn't have sugar added. I hate sweet drinks.

5. I'll have to look for that. I did find this. Sounds yummy.
Coconut Southern Pecan Coffee recipe

1 cup (8 ounces) hot coffee
1 drop coconut extract*
1/4 cup International Delight Southern Butter Pecan
whipped cream or Delightful Whip
sweetened shredded coconut, lightly toasted

Combine coffee, coconut extract and International Delight Southern Butter Pecan in a mug and stir to blend. Top with whipped cream or Delightful Whip and sprinkle with toasted coconut. Serve immediately.

*Note: Coconut extract is very strong; start with a tiny drop and adjust as needed to suit your taste.

7. Heavy (whipping) cream.
I tried it once in my coffee, and now anything else tastes watery.

10. Silk Soy Creamer
Edited on Wed Nov-15-06 03:30 AM by AmyDeLune
I love the Pumpkin Pie Spice & other flavors, but they're loaded with partially hydrogenated oil, so it's the soy creamer for me.

17. and if you bring coffee to a boil in the microwave and add powdered
creamer it erupts, like a volcano.

I became very suspicious of that stuff after that.

A friend of mine calls it coffee bleach.

12. This is all in the past...
I haven't drunk coffee since late 2003, and if I do drink it it makes me feel really, really sick and shaky, but when I used to drink it I was all over the hazelnut creamer. And I would ONLY use Coffee-Mate. I could never stand International Delight because they put too much sugar in theirs and not enough actual hazelnut flavor. My mom always insisted that they tasted the same--NO. They don't.

15. Whole milk or real cream.
When I don't take it black, that is (which I do, more often than not).

18. half and half. At only 1 Weight Watcher point for 2 Tablespoons
it works for me.

I am very proud of the fact that I lost 40 pounds in the last year and never gave up the cream in my coffee.

26. That "Fat Free Half & Half" stuff that stores sell. Whatever it is, it's good.
I think it's made from nonfat milk powder and water.

28. Vanilla Ice cream
Mmm, but I guess that makes it more of an milkshake than coffee.

29. For a while, I used flavored coffee creamers. However, now
I use flavored coffees and just add skim milk and Stevia. :) My favorite coffee flavors, though, are Pumpkin Spice, French Vanilla, and Caramel. :9
