Love dark coffee with some half & half!
Love to try your coffee
A cold brew, black
I am all about the local coffee shops! I’ll try out tinker when we’re in Indy next 😍
Would like to try Indiana coffee.
Just black coffee 🙂
Strong brew & 2 sugars! I like to experiment with my coffee so sometimes I percolate or make pour over but mainly I fill my own single serve pods or make 12 cup pots. Sometimes I will add oat milk, froth milk or half & half and occasionally buy flavorings or make liquor coffee with chocolate drizzles. 🙂
I enjoy a light roast, not too strong. My husband makes the perfect cup- I’ve not had better in any restaurant or coffee shop! I used to drink it black but then my husband introduced me to half & half (insert angelic chorus lol), and I’ve been forever converted!
Would love to try your coffee.
Coffee cold medium roast with a little bit of cream and sugar.
Never tried Indiana coffee, would love 💕 to try this!
