1. Go black or go bulletproof. If you must add something, use heavy cream (1 carb per tablespoon) or unsweetened almond milk. Your taste buds will adjust faster than you expect. After a week, black coffee will taste like dark chocolate, not punishment.
2. Beware of “keto-friendly” syrups. Most are sweetened with sucralose or maltitol—the latter can spike your blood sugar like a sugar-water IV. Stick to stevia or monk fruit, but use them like a cautious uncle: a little is fine, a lot ruins the vibe.
3. Don’t skip the pinch of salt. Keto flushes out electrolytes, and a tiny pinch of salt in your coffee cuts bitterness and prevents that “keto flu” headache. It’s not a drink anymore—it’s a remedy.
