    imo sugar makes the bitter in coffee, overwhelming. I prefer it black or with a little oat milk. Oat milk has a pleasant mild sweetness that makes coffee just the right balance

    my wife likes the sweater called Ez-Sweets and it’s ok but I only ever have a drop or two in tea

        do you cream it?

        if you just sugar it, there’s a threshold between way too bitter and just sweet enough. I don’t get it right so I just have something sweet to eat while enjoying the coffee

      A little tiny pinch of salt in coffee can take the edge off the bitterness. It surprisingly doesn’t make it taste salty, just less bitter.
