I enjoy coffee many ways. I often drink it black, but I also have been known to have it with unsweetened soy milk and usually agave/maple syrup in addition to that. However, I noticed that using both soy and a sweetener makes it taste kinda “overwhelming.” This morning, I put some agave in my coffee but I put no soy, and it tastes much better. Bottom line is that I can enjoy coffee either black or with sweetener OR milk/creamer, but I can’t do both sweetener and milk/creamer. Now, that I can’t get with.
I think I agree with you. Really good coffee can be great just black. But as you said, a lot of the coffee you get (at the office for example) isn’t that great, so you might as well spice it up with whatever you fancy since you’re not missing out on some amazing flavor.
