I’m one of those people who likes her coffee strong and black. My hubby likes flavored coffee though – he likes hazelnut.
Heather @ Kraus House Mom says
I never realized it was that easy to make. I love to add syrups to my coffee, but buying them is out of the question because they cost so much and my kids would probably just drink it out of the bottle.

Mocha is my favorite flavor, for sure! I didn’t realize it was so easy to make your own syrups; and this really appeals to me because I can’t digest high fructose corn syrup (which is in so many of the commercial syrups).
karen says

I like sugar free vanilla or chocolate truffle.

Coney Island Carmel
One sip of Coney Island Caramel brings back sweet memories of that first taste of homemade, gooey caramel. When the buttery toasted sugar and hints of vanilla cream are blended with our 100% Arabica coffee beans, it’s all-over cozy.
