Hello, coffeeholics! I've been writing my little rhyming riddle. Is it too easy to guess?!

The answer is in a little box behind my cup of hot coffee.

                                                                        Occasionally or oft,
                                                                        I might be your honey;
                                                                        I may not be soft,
                                                                        I may cost some money.
                                                                        So you like me whole.
                                                                        So you like me ground.
                                                                        Find me in your soul,
                                                                        in your coffee, drowned.

I really liked your rhyming verses, as for the riddle, maybe it could be the sugar, ☕

Good day.

Thank you!!! 🤎

No, it's not sugar 😆 The one I bought came in a little box, but it also comes in jars.

This poem is FABULOUS! And I really like your image/ gif thingy 😍

It feels like sometimes the best place to hide things is in plain sight, which makes me want to guess honey... Honey sticks??

Oh, yes!!! It's cinnamon. It's good to sweeten your coffee without using sugar. I like to do it sometimes in the afternoon. Here's my last stick!

I haven't had cinnamon in my coffee in a long time. I must remember to try some in the morning:)

I use a stick to stir the coffee a little, so that it releases the flavor. Then I reuse the stick for the oatmeal or wash it and freeze it. One cinnamon stick is enough for a couple more coffees.

I always wanted to know how exactly people use the stick.

wash it and freeze it

So this could be a good idea

If you don't cook it, you can reuse it a couple of times. Coffee is never that hot so it cooks your cinnamon stick. Also, if the stick is too thick, you can break it into two or more sticks.
