I’m sipping my first cup of coffee for the evening… which means I’m going to be up LATTE!

Yeah, I’ve got too much “work” to do before crashing (physically, not Vista-literally). Coffee helps get me through the day. This cup has been brewed at home with a French press (and a grind specific for the French press). I’d much acquire my coffee directly from the local Peet’s store than make it at home. For whatever reason, no matter what I try, I can’t get the same flavor from a homebrewed cup of coffee! Seriously, I’ve done it all – and I’m tired of buying expensive coffee machines only to discover that they can’t come close to helping me match the flavor I always get from a Peet’s barista. I’d rather drive across town for a great cup of coffee than stay at home and make a mediocre one.

So, I take my coffee with heavy cream. What’s your “daily” beverage configuration (caffeinated or not)?

Coffee!
