I'm a fan of various sachets of whatever is going cheap at the bargain stores. Coffee, black usually, but through the winter it switches to the chocolate sachets as well. If out for longer, tin of powdered milk as well.

I usually make up coffee kits for every brew intended, 1 spoon Nescafe coffee, 1/2 spoon sugar, 1/2 spoon dried milk in small zippy bags. Milbank bag for filteration and a good boil up. That make an acceptable brew for this.
Solid fuel then small sticks/twigs to keep the fire going.

If its coffee it has to be done properly... Cowboy coffee.
Usually though I use herbal teas, or individual tea bags and drink black. I try to carry a decent 1/2 quart bag of hot chocolate powder, because that stuff is lush and massive morale when you're hungry and cold

Rediscovered Lyons coffee bags this weekend. For sheer bloody laziness or throwing in the "Ineveremptymy" bag, you can't beat em. Individually foil wrapped, low bulk, low weight. Add hot water for "better than any instant ever".
Now we all know that the best thing about bushcraft is making a nice cuppa in the woods
I guess I'll never be a real bushcraft man
if that's the best thing though, guess I might as well give up nowNot making, partaking.I guess I'll never be a real bushcraft man

I can make a killer coffee or cupoa tea, was a barister for a year and a half and then went in to work for a high-end loose tea company, but even as a chef, never touched the stuff. Tea, coffee, hot chocolate, hot, cold, no thanks. Cold water for me please (living in hong Kong was a real challenge, unless it was bottled water, then you got given a cup of boiling water with ice cubes in it because it was too polluted to drink straight from the tap)
I like to think it makes me a stronger person by not having a caffeine addiction

I knew it looked odd when I typed it. My father and brother have the BAR covered for this family.
I'll take a nice glass of whisky over a coffee any day though
Understood on the ordeal of HK living. Caffeine addiction? Don't know about that. I do enjoy the kick I get early morning from a coffee. Don't think I'm addicted to it though. But, more often than not, it's decaf. I love the taste of coffee, the aroma particularly.I can make a killer coffee or cupoa tea, was a barister for a year and a half and then went in to work for a high-end loose tea company, but even as a chef, never touched the stuff.

On a cold start to the day, the smell, taste of coffee is hard to beat. I enjoy the rest of it too, of course.. Fuel, fire.. the wait, anticipation.. Sit back, and relax.
