How does /lit/ take their coffee? (Invariably in the coolness of the morning whilst reading a book and reclining in a verrrry comfy chair.)

I take mine:
>10% Half & Half cream
>with local clover honey

What does coffee have to do with literature, beyond its pairing in the contrived, but infinitely marketable, stereotype of the "literary type"?

Espresso preferably, but most espresso in my city is terrible except a two or three cafes I've found.

Otherwise, just drip (ideally French press), and black

Standing in line at the local starbucks you see all these fat middle-aged socialite women nobbing in little groups and gawky teenagers cutting classes, and they're all ordering as much sugar and fat as they can possibly have in their coffee and have it still be regarded as coffee. Then they flavor it with two or three flavors of corn syrup in those colorful little bottles, sprinkle it with nutmeg and chocolate syrup and sprinkles and a fucking donut, I don't know. I'm not intending to sound like a crank here -- faint protest, I know -- and if these people want to slug down a foamy milkshake that has a hint of coffee in it, then okay. But they're coffee drinkers in the sense that the kids in the retard class are students; yes and yet no. They would drink antifreeze if it was presented to them in a big expensive cup. And they're going to consume their entire recommended daily calorie intake in ten minutes. Now, I'm not neutral on that - I like looking at skinny women everywhere instead of fat ones like it is here in America, It's their choice to gargle with liquid ice cream two or three times a day, but I don't have to respect it.

I drink my coffee black.

Woah now, tea is also excellent. But coffee is for when I'm reading something I need to exert effort on, tea for a more pleasant read

Its not about the caffeine, either. The boldness of a black coffee makes my mind move (caffeine helps too), whereas tea helps relax and flow

coffee makes you live longer

>The results showed men and women who consumed three or more cups of coffee per day had about a 10 percent lower risk of death than non-drinkers from a wide variety of causes.
