Habit I picked up from a Cafe I loved in Amsterdam. Every cup of coffee ordered came with a small glass of water with a twist of lemon rind and a 1" cube of cake.

The water and lemon acts as a palate cleanser between sips of coffee to better enjoy its flavors and I was simply used to drinking more liquid in the morning than one cup of coffee, so I usually just drink more water after the coffee is done.
