I have a stove top espresso maker but I usually take my coffee black.

What do you or your friends put in their espresso. I'd like to have the condiments around in case someone asks for them.


This is what I have: Makes really strong espresso -

Not a thing. And if anybody suggests a piece of lemon peel, ignore them!

Sugar in the raw seems much different than raw sugar. I guess to each their own.

Cannoli? No way. Chocolate eclair with custard unside of course!!! :)

I have a pot like that. Lave it. Especially when camping by myself.

I keep sugar in the house and usually have 1% or 2% milk in the house so those bases are covered. When Michelle came over she accepted Almond milk in her coffee. But we had coffee not espresso. If I wasn't on a diet I'd keep sweets in the house. Cannoli and eclairs sound nice but fattening. I'm watching my girlish figure (LOL).

So it seems like the consensus is to serve it black. I like it that way for sure. Thanks for the replies.

We use the Aeropress when we need a jolt - which is most of the time these days - and we like some Equal sweetener.
