I can't get the milk right at home so here I drink almost black coffee with lots of sugar (or if Lidl has them in; caramel or vanilla syrup) We have a filter machine and buy 5 strength coffee as DH grew up on super strong Greek coffee that could strip paint at 5 paces...

Out-and-about I am horribly addicted to Cinnamon Lattes from Cafe Nero and bloody love the Christmas Gingerbread and Eggnog ones that Starbucks does (just another month or two to go...)

[ummunono]

I'm a coffee addict too. I usually have a latte in the morning (Decaf at the moment as pregnant), and then americano with a splash of milk. I need good, strong, smooth coffee but not bitter. Tassimo please can you make a proper chai spicy latte? and a Moroccan mint tea.

[knittedslippersx3]

I have a tassimo and would love costa vanilla latte.

[Cuddlydragon]

I'm currently addicted to a certain coffee chain's mocha orange. Just like Terry's orange in a mug. Seriously though, coffee in any guise is essential. Easier the better!

[AllThoseDirtyWords]

I love the Tassimo Coxta cappauchino but I would love a Costa Mocha! Also how about a lemon green tea?

[Mandz07]

My favourite hot drinks changes depending on the time of day. First drink of the day is a big mug of tea(1 of around 20 a day) I constantly have a mug of something in my hand!! Afternoon I like a moccha, in between the tea! Night time when everyone is asleep I usually have a mug of hot chocolate while reading a book in my favourite comfy chair xx

[WildThongsHeartString]

My absolute favourite is a Costa Flat White. For me it is the perfect balance of strength and creaminess. It's a rare treat though as my budget doesn't stretch to daily Costas. No way could I create it at home, I suppose that's what makes it special.

[CissyMeldrum]

I love coffee with warm milk in the morning ,tea every other time and cocoa in the cold ,I find hot chocolate too sweet for me

[AintNobodyGotTimeFurThat]

I am a keen hot drink fiend.

I love Cadbury's hot chocolate, Twinning's tea and Kenco coffee.

But I also enjoy some English and Yorkshire tea, Nescafe Gold Blend and fresh coffee.

There is nothing nicer than a nice refreshing cup of tea to make your day go smoothly, a charming cup of coffee to wake you up in the morning and keep you going during the day and a tasty hot chocolate to help you wind down after a bath in the night.

[snowymum12]

I am a rooibos addict! It's just the most refreshing type of tea, in my opinion. It's lovely with a dash of milk and doesn't contain any caffeine or tannins so is pretty good for you too.

When I'm out I love a flat white. I'm not really sure how it's that much different to a latte or a cappuccino but it always goes down a treat!!

[VoodooHexDoll]

Starbucks white mocha please i would love to make this at home.

Costa hazelnut latte being my next fav but i also love the christmas coffee as well.

[manyhands]

Caramel macchiato reminds me of when I could afford takeaway coffee! Love it.

[Steffanoid]

my favourite hot drink is chocolate with caramel flarour and sneaky whipped cream on top

[nickdrakeslovechild]

If its tea then only Yorkshire tea will do. I love a good hot chocolate with lots of whipped cream and marshmallows (must put the marshmallows in before the cream so it melts and goes all gooey) I used to run a shop and all the bosses from head office use to come to me if they were anywhere near just for my coffee, in the staff room I put a peculator and lots of different syrups it also made the shop smell lovely. Would be great to have the Tdiscs with some yummy flavours like Irish coffee.

[ThePortlyPinUp]

I like hot chocolate with whipped cream and a flake.

[LottieLaBouff]

We have a Tassimo machine and it's the best thing ever! Makes more than just coffee and we'd be lost without ours! It's quicker than boiling the kettle too.

Costa Caramel Latte with added Caramel syrup (Monin, the one Costa actually use) and a bit of squirty cream on the top is my favourite. I shamefully have one every day! Quicker than actual Costa.
My OH prefers the Twinings breakfast tea and the Cadbury's hot chocolate. Add in a handful of mini marshmallows before you start your machine and you end up with frothy sweet hot chocolate! Bit of squirty cream and a dusting of cocoa powder tops it off.

[Whereisegg]

I drink 2 cups of tea every morning, and it isn't advisable to talk to me before the first.

Tea is mostly my drink of choice, but I love a 'proper' black coffee too (only one as any more than that and I'm bouncing off the walls ), but really, you can't beat a hot chocolate made with milk, and a splash of double cream to finish.

[MyNameIsInigoMontoya]

My favourite is "dishwater coffee" I'm afraid - not very strong and lots of milk so it looks quite grey!

But I do like lattes too, and like a "proper" coffee sometimes when I'm in the mood. Hot chocolate is lovely too but more of an occasional treat.

Actually the other thing I really love is Spanish-style, really thick dark hot chocolate, preferably with churros to dip in it. But not had that in years as I've not been to Spain and it's not the same here (probably luckily for my waistline...).

[missorinoco]

Earl grey tea, with a smidgen of milk. Always dubious that coffee makers can do decent tea.

An occasional luxury hot chocolate, I used to like Suchards, had forgotten it for a while.

[AllThatGlistens]

I love filter coffee with a splash of baileys in

Although I have also been known to melt very dark chocolate into heated double cream for the ultimate hot chocolate!

[EnolaAlone]

I love the tassimo chai latte. My son loves the Milka hot chocolate. Husband likes the Costa Americano but would like a better choice of espresso.

[blizy]

I must have a coffee in the morning or else I'm a grumpy sod. I tend to drink a lot of coffee some days and tea on others,I also live an occasional hot chocolate with marshmallows and whipped cream.

[dahville]

I like steamed milk with a dash of vanilla or a nice dark hot chocolate. I haven't considered a Tassimo because I am sure my husband, an avowed latte drinker, would get addicted!

[GaryBuseysTeeth]

Twinings Everyday Tea, it's simply the drink for me.
Morning, noon or night, on its own or with a quick bite.
Oh how I love it so, please put it in a Tassimo!

^ unhealthy love for tea that is. Would probably trade a child for a decent pot & a scone or two (salted butter, cream and THEN the jam).

DH loves the Tassimo/Costa range (PIL have one & his preferred drink is the caramel latte), but we can't justify the outlay on a machine when there's only a very limited range in the supermarkets. Wish you could buy a multipack instore like you can online.
