The Quest for the Perfect Coffee!

With the sound of the Indiana Jones theme song faintly playing in the background, I entered the mini-mart at the local Mobil station and found a treasure chest full of creamy International Delights. (By the way, I take my coffee the same way Wolf from Pulp Fiction does: lots of cream, lots of sugar.)

But I’m still searching for that perfect combination of coffee flavors and creams, and since I wasn’t sure which cream one I wanted to experiment with first, I decided to take them all:

coffeecreams

I looked kinda silly carrying fistfuls of of creams out the store with a guilty look on my face, donning my hat and pretending there was a huge boulder ball barreling down on me while I raced to my car, but it was well worth it. :-D

I gave the chocolate cream a try today, and I’m already thinking this will probably be my favorite. I LOVE hot chocolate, so finding a perfect blend of hot chocolate and coffee might just be enough to give me a glimpse of heaven.

So what’s your favorite coffee combo/blend?

    Mmmm… coffee! I like mine dark, and not sweet at all. Now, that’s real coffee!

    If it’s good coffee I drink it black and strong. However, most convenience stores (Starbucks included) don’t have good coffee so I find myself adding a packet of hot chocolate mix to my coffee.

    Meh, I don’t care for black.

    I likes my coffee the same way I likes my wimmins: strong, sugary and white.

    A cup of Peet’s Major Dickason’s blend with a touch of cream and a smidgen of sugar. Yum.

    Hi,

    You can have a good coffee here in Portugal :-)
    I don’t know if I can mentions brands, but if not, then please modify this comment.
    Portuguese brands : Delta (I like the Platina blend)
    Sical (now it’s owned by Nestlè)
    Nicola
    Italian brands : I like Mokai (I can’t remember how it’s spelled).
    Mind that’s important to have a good machine (Briel is a good portuguese brand), a good grinding and to know how to take a coffee.
    Good luck with your request.

    Kind regards,

    José

    i like my cafe con letche haha … I’m not much of a coffee drinker … i always found it funny when people would say ” i like my coffee black” … i always thought you had to have a real tough nature to like that kind haha :P … but yeah i can agree with you on the hot chocolate :) , and I am sure that creamer is the best choice

    I drink those International instant coffees. They are just awesome! I’ve been trying them all lately, and so far, my favorite is the Swiss White Chocolate. Yummy!
