I started on my own when I was thirteen. My grandparents were surprised at I was old enough to be drinking coffee when I ordered a coffee at lunch with them at 15. When did everyone else start?

Milk coffee since I first asked my parents to join in - age 5 - in a grown up coffee cup. Still drink my coffee with milk . Tried all the designer coffees but nothing soothes like basic coffee with plain ol’ milk - in a cup, not a mug. Amazing that you acquired a taste for it all on your own. Showed savy to just order. I actually prefer hot tea for the taste but the memories keep me fixed. You have a great one.

I’ve been drinking coffee since I was a kid. My parents would let me have it, but it was only after I moved away from home at 17 that I started drinking it everyday!

I started when I was around 6. I would beg to have some during holiday parties. During the summer, I would steal the iced coffee my mom made and have it with ice cream. Now, at age 15, I have a cup a day, black no sugar.

I started when I was 12. My mom had passed away & I would get up very early with my dad to make his breakfast. I started drinking coffee with lots of cream & sugar at that time…lol…& thought i was the sh*t ! I still love it with hazelnut or french vanilla creamer!

I am 41 now and I started when I was 18 while in the USMC. I always said I would never drink the stuff. However, I was standing watch one very cold winter night in Washington, DC and my Sergeant-of-the-Guard (boss) came out with a cup of joe. My hand were freezing so instead of drinking it, I poured it on my hands. Needless to say, this was very foolish. The next time he brought me coffee, I decided to keep my cold hands and warm-up the insides by drinking it. I haven’t turned back since. I now drink it strong and black!

I was in first grade. Back then, it was used to treat A.D.D. because of it’s stimulant effects on the central nervous system.
