Confession...I don't like coffee

[Alexandra100]

I'm just trying to find a satisfying hot drink to tide me over between ever widening meal times

I'm not sure why your meal-times are widening. If it is for weight loss, cream is obviously not the best. If it is for intermittent fasting for health reasons, my understanding is that consuming any calories at all breaks the fast. If it because life doesn't seem to allow time to eat often, how about preparing little portions of cheese or nuts or very dark chocolate to nibble while busy?
