you want to add your spices to the coffee grounds before you brew. This is an easy way to make your coffee more aromatic, flavorful, and cozy-feeling; it’s one of my favorite tricks in the wintertime. Any warm baking spices will work, such as nutmeg, star anise, cloves, or cardamom

This person doesn't like coffee. This advice just turns bad coffee into non-coffee. I prefer the taste of bad coffee (e.g. vending machine coffee) to cinnamon.

You don’t overuse the cinnamon, for two cups two dashes from store bought plastic container will do. I have used cheap 12 oz bag of coffee bought at 99 cent store, mixed it equally with Maxwell House 2+pounder from Walmart, add either a dash of cinnamon or cardamom per serving before running it through the Mr. Coffee. Voila, not bad. By the way, I have lived in coffee country for decades and I’ve tried Coban, Armenia, Sidamo, Yemen, Tanzan, Yergacheffe, Mocha, etc., etc., etc. I would probably chose a Yemeni for taste, but damned if I’ll pay the price. So my cheap-o effort will do for now.

Exactly, except for the pinch of salt idea it was about turning it into a flavored drink.

In nature, bitter usually means poison. For survival, the human tongue has far more bitter receptors than anything else. Because of their biological role as gatherer, women are far more genetically equipped for poison detection, including color sensing. Like nicotine, nature intended caffeine as a neurotoxin for insects.

Because of "global warming", why aren't the libtards pushing low carbon footprint cold brew methods, to save the Erf? Instead of imposing sacrifice on conservatives, the city slickers should do some suffering themselves. Warm drinks are not popular in hot tropical climates, even when the tropical part is a mass delusion.

You are right. Starbucks coffee is so bad most people fill it full of those corn syrup laced flavorings.... And pay $6.00 for it.
