What do you add to coffee to make it good?
By admin | July 30, 2010
The only coffee that I have ever tasted is a vanilla latte from Starbucks. I want to start making coffee at home but I don’t know what kind to buy and what to add to it to make it taste good (creamer, sugar, etc.)?
Okay, what brands are good? I look at the Dunkin Donuts brand of coffee at the store I work at. They have a french vanilla coffee that looks good.

the best coffee you’ll tastes is from fresh roasted beans, not beans that have been sitting on a shelf.
Check your local coffee house, and they’ll usually have good beans for you that are pretty fresh (coffee beans start going stale after two weeks!)
And as for making it, usually its about 3 scoops of ground coffee (most coffee makers come with a measuring scoop) per cup of coffee (not actual drinking cup, cup as shown on the little coffee carafe)
I have to say, those flavored creamers on the market, like coffeemate, are really tasty, but they’re horrid for your heath. Try using chocolate syrup and milk if you want a simple mocha.l
and if you like the vanilla latte at starbucks, try buying yourself vanilla flavored syrup (Torelli’s the brand they use at starbucks, alot of Safeway/Vons/Pavillions stores have it) and milk
