Let\u2019s admit it: after a while, black coffee can be a bit dull. Until now, your only option was to buy either an expensive Keurig or espresso machine, maybe you add a bit of syrup after your coffee is brewed. Or maybe you\u2019re just a dull person and drink black\u00a0coffee every morning.<\/p>\n<p>My question is simple, can you brew coffee with liquids other than water to spice up your mornings? The Journal decided to do some experimenting to find the answer.<\/p>\n<p>#1: Coffee Brewed with Coca-Cola Vanilla 6\/10<br \/>\nMy first reaction was to remark on the delightful smoothness of the drink. The Coke seems to brilliantly mask the coffee without covering the flavor too much. A hint of vanilla seals the deal. This drink is almost comparable to the adrenaline rush of wrestling grizzly bears. That is, until the bear notices you and rips your head off.<\/p>\n<p>#2: Coffee Brewed with Dr. Pepper 2\/10<br \/>\nThis depends on your interpretation of fresh sewage. You may find this drink bearable if you\u2019re the type of person who digs through rubbish bins, finds half eaten cans of old spam and thinks \u201cjackpot.\u201d If you wake up in the morning believing you are a potato trapped in a human body, I\u2019d recommend this drink for you.<\/p>\n<p>#3: Coffee brewed with Raspberry lemonade 7\/10<br \/>\nThis is by far my favorite one of the mix, a very sophisticated flavor of cooked raspberry with a side of coffee. This cup is for thrill seekers only, if you are the<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernjournal\/files\/2017\/01\/Screen-Shot-2017-01-31-at-6.36.23-PM-198x300.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"198\" height=\"300\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-5038 alignright\" srcset=\"https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/files\/2017\/01\/Screen-Shot-2017-01-31-at-6.36.23-PM-198x300.png 198w, https:\/\/wou.edu\/westernhowl\/files\/2017\/01\/Screen-Shot-2017-01-31-at-6.36.23-PM.png 312w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 198px) 100vw, 198px\" \/> type of person who rides roller coasters for the initial view, steer clear. If you drink this regularly you may lose most of your friends to extreme jealousy.<\/p>\n<p>#4: Coffee Brewed with Sunny D 1\/10<br \/>\nInitially, the smell is appalling, but only after you take your first sip do you realize the scale of the mistake you have just made. It smells and tastes like a pidan egg. I would drink this\u00a0cup if I was the sort of person who enjoyed shoving furious rodents into my mouth in the morning. Recommending this drink would be as misguided as recommending an adult film for its plot.<\/p>\n<p>Contact the author at journaladvertising@wou.edu<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>By: Brian Tesch Advertising Manager For all of our lives, we were taught to use water to brew a cup of coffee in the morning.
