When I first read the ingredients in an artificial coffee whitener I picked up I thought, "Yuck! I would no sooner pour corn syrup and wesson oil into my coffee to flavor it; why choose a product like this?" Many people choose coffee creamers over regular cream for different reasons: some think it tastes better, some may find it more convenient to keep longer in their refrigerator; most people probably think it's healthier for them... well, think again! Here are some examples of what your beverage lightener may contain:

International Delight Non-Dairy French Vanilla flavored singles (less than an ounce) each contain 40 Calories, 2 grams of fat and 5 grams of sugar. The ingredients in Coffee Mate liquid begin with water, partially hydrogenated oil, and sugar. If you're a Cremora fan, read on: one ounce (2 Tablespoons) contains 60 Calories, half of which are from fat (that's 3 grams of fat), and 6 grams of carbohydrate from corn syrup solids and sugar.

Still think the artificial creamers are better for you? My advice: How about a shot of real milk in your coffee! One ounce of 2% milk adds 4% of your daily value of calcium, 3% of your daily need for vitamin D, 3% of your daily riboflavin requirement, along with potassium, vitamin B12 and vitamin A, all for only 15 Calories. If you like more than a small shot to whiten your coffee, the artificial creamers just keep adding oils and sugar, whereas milk will continue to add nutrition to your morning beverage. And just an FYI; if you use skim milk you get slightly more nutrition (in place of the fat) in just 10 Calories per ounce.

There are actually quite a variety of flavors available, and many are hard to find if you don't know where to look. We think that you should be able to add any flavor of creamer you want to that delicious, freshly brewed cup of coffee.

Of course we always recommend making your coffee in a coffee press, or french press if you prefer, and then you take it with you with a coffee press travel mug with whatever flavor of cream that you prefer. First we'll go over some of the most common flavors of creamer that you can find in your local grocery store, before we get into the exotic flavors. The most common type of coffee creamer is either liquid half and half or the dry powdered creamer that you find on grocery store shelves. Many people also use milk in their coffee or tea.

However other common flavors include Irish Cream, which started as part of an Irish drink that incorporated whiskey, coffee and cream. Also widely available is mocha or chocolate cream flavors. Another flavor that you'll see in a lot of grocery stores and convenience stores is Hazelnut. Some of the newest flavors come from the creamer giant Coffee-Mate. These include five new European flavors: Belgian Chocolate Toffee, Parisian Almond Crème, Italian Sweet Crème, Hazlenut Biscotti and another new flavor called Tiramisu, which is modeled after the taste of the classic desert.

You can also find seasonal coffee creamers around the Holidays such as pumpkin spice, or variations or that flavor, peppermint, Eggnog and Caramel Apple as well as a few other flavors that go well with the holidays. There are so many flavors to choose from that you could have a different flavor of cream each day for a year and never have to use the same creamer twice. Some of these are only available in specialty stores and online. You can of course, use a little bit of cream and some flavor extracts and make your own perfect creamer if you choose. Find a combination that works well and you might just have the next big coffee creamer flavor.
