Beer has a high carbon footprint, which is bad for the climate crisis.
 
I was going to recommend a Ramos Gin Fizz and realized you're talking about coffee... Black no sugar. <{vega}>
 
Buy your own coffee beans and make your own.........

Can I suggest modafinil instead...

If you just drink black coffee you first of all will like it after you get through the on ramp, and second you will know when you have shit coffee or good coffee because you'll be able to taste it.

Yup I like my coffee how I like my women...

Hot, black, and constantly has me on edge
 
Anthony Bourdain on coffee.

“There are few things I care about less than coffee. I have two big cups every morning: light and sweet, preferably in cardboard cup. Any bodega will do. I don’t want to wait for my coffee. I don’t want some man-bun, Mumford and Son motherfucker to get it for me. I like good coffee but I don’t want to wait for it, and I don’t want it with the cast of Friends. It’s a beverage; it’s not a lifestyle.”
 
The staff at Costa were rude so I went to Greggs and grabbed a large gingerbread latte.

‘tis the season for all things sweet and our Gingerbread Latte has been warming up for this moment.

Made with freshly ground coffee, semi-skimmed milk and a dash of gingerbread flavour syrup, we then add a swirl of cream and spiced sugar sprinkles to make it the most drool-worthy drink to hit our menu.

All we want for Christmas… is this.

A latte, or 'caffè latte,' is an espresso-based coffee drink made with a shot or two of espresso, steamed milk and a thin layer of foamed milk on top. It's known for its balanced, smooth and milky flavour due to the high ratio of steamed milk to espresso. Many variations exist, and it can be customised with syrups and flavourings.

Not that I have much to compare it with, but I would give it 6½/10. Maybe 7. It was a mild flavour which is what I was looking for, lots of milk, sweet but not sickly. It gave me a little boost of energy. I drank it through the lid so the cream on top just melted into the drink. If I were sitting down somewhere I would eat it with a spoon. I did think the gingerbread flavour could have been stronger, but if you look at other reviews most people are saying it's strong so maybe I'm an outlier there. I'm not getting in the Christmas mood yet as it's too early, still I suppose this did start up the festive ambience. Nice and comforting on a black, rainy afternoon. Overall as the description above says I found this a well-balanced beverage, that did what I wanted so this was a successful start to the experiment.

 
Black coffee is fine
White coffee is fine
A pinch of sugar is fine.
- I'll drink any type of coffee really. With milk / sugar or without either, doesn't really bother me.

Coffee at a lot of these places is stupidly expensive IMHO. Just my view.

Oh yeah....I tried one of those "capsule" machines recently at a work site, and yeah that was good, quality coffee.

Sorry i can't be more specific but ....just try coffee at 4 or 5 places and stick with the one that you like the best.
