Coffee. I'll make Peet's Major Dickason blend in my french press at home and bring a thermos in to work, other than that water.

Well, If I ever find myself ordering coffee from Starbucks it us usually one of the blond roasts, the least incinerated beans they have available. So I really have plenty of non starbuck drinks of choice.

As far as coffee goes I usually get one of the better medium roasts and brew at home. We don't use the stupid Keurig anymore because most of the time the coffee sucks coming out of those machines. I brew (and I have figured out any size pot two cups and above) with filtered water but this cold brew thing has me intrigued. I rarely buy coffee out anymore, my go to was Timmies dark roast and I still get it once in a while but most of the time it is whatever good coffee I buy on sale.

Cold brew is fantastic and it's stupid easy to make. I make a concentrate in the French Press during warmer weather, cut with filtered water, & add a touch of cream if I'm in the mood. Generally I drink my hot coffee black, but like a hint of cream with cold brew. You can also get away with older or slightly lower quality beans.

SodaStream carbonated water. No flavours added. Extra fizzy. Big chugs followed by awesome belching- Non-wife not impressed.

Whatever whole bean is on sale, ground medium-large, and prepared in a french press. My daughter likes grinding the beans at the supermarket.
