I love how coffee smells, and heavily diluted in an icecap or something, it's fine.

Straight up, though? Disgusting. I've tried for years to develop the taste for it. No dice.

A well prepared tea just goes down easier.

Even a caffeine free green tea is a step above hot water. And I'll drink straight hot water on a cold day in a pinch.

Did you ever try filter coffee from a speciality shop? Some coffee variants almost taste tea like. A whole different experience from your common bitter liquid

Oh yeah. I sometimes ask my partner to take a sip of her coffee. She asks me why I punish myself. She takes it plain black, and we get it from a ton of different places.

I've tried larger amounts to see if my palate adjusts, but it never really has. Granted, I could try harder, but there comes a point at which it's just not worth the effort. Tea is fine. Even shitty generic black teabags are okay as long as you don't steep them longer than 20-30 seconds, and maybe bulk them up with a bit of sugar and salt to cut the bitterness. Too easy to overextract them and they're usually extracted with fresh-boiling water, which is a little too hot.

Speciality coffee can be a different beast, I have tried some which have a sweetness to it

[–] rbos@lemmy.ca 1 points 4 months ago

I will hold out hope!

yea how the fuck it smells so good but tastes like meh. Wait cinnamon...

[–] Kichae@lemmy.ca 4 points 4 months ago

And as with cinnamon, all you need is quadruple the amount of sugar as you use coffee in order for it to start tasting ok.
