Coffee. Caffeine doesn't really work for me in terms of giving me energy, but I like the taste of a nice cup of cortado.
I like tea as well, but can't stand the herbal stuff. Only Camellia sinensis for me.
I love coffee but after my 1 cup in the morning I try not to drink it. My goto tea is Mate or Carceja.
Coffee, 4-5 cups a day and usually one an hour or so before bed. It somehow helps me sleepβ¦
Barry's Gold Blend R E P R E S E N T
Coffee. Tea gives me a stomachache. I love the flavor of tea but I never have the willpower to stop steeping it after however many minutes you're supposed to steep it
Interesting. I enjoy both coffee and tea, but I also take tea as a cure for a stomach ache.
Yeah tea with honey is the first thing I make when I wake up with a stomach ache.
Maybe removing the tea bag is essential? Idk haha
Tea. Yorkshire. Hot.
Tea (PG Tips Original) with milk and sugar.
Am I weird for drinking neither? If you're not used to drinking them, you have to add so much to them to make them taste good, and I just never got into it.
Very occasionally I drink pop, so that and chocolate (a lot of chocolate) are where my caffeine consumption comes from, but the caffeine isn't the point.
I prefer iced tea, but my honey makes me a coffee every morning when he makes his, so i drink it and enjoy it. I like a nice coffee or with dessert sometimes or occasionally an espresso in the afternoon. I like hot tea but don't really enjoy it unless it's cool out.
I'm from a country that adores mint tea. I drink coffee.
Loose-leaf tea steeped in a gaiwan, which ever tea leaves I happen to have.
I am so oversensitive to caffeine, that I tend to lose my sleep if I drink even a cup of coffee a day. So, if I drink coffee, I prefer decaf. There are some good decaf coffees nowadays.
I enjoy both. More typically I go for coffee in the morning. Pretty stuck on the same exact coffee, but I try this and that when it comes to tea. I'll always have both stocked in my pantry.
I rarely drink either as I'm caffeine sensitive, but if I need a few sips to get me going I go for the burnt bean soup over the dirt tasting weak leaf soup
I really like both. I have to have coffee in the morning so I guess if I had to pick one that would be it.
I love a good chai that will take my lunch money though
I prefer flavored (not sweetened) iced tea and drink it almost daily. I absolutely love the smell of coffee grounds, but loathe the taste of coffee. To me it tastes like I imagine a burnt asshole tastes. ...Let the downvotes commence...
I do love a coffee, but try to limit my intake for caffeine reasons. The flavour is lovely. I've got a few different ways of brewing it at home, but a cafetiere is probably my go-to. I will admit to being quite partial to a mug of milky decaf instant coffee in the evenings too, but that feels... a bit disconnected from coffee proper.
I am a total failure as a Brit in that I do not actually like black tea. Green tea, mint tea, mint green tea, and yerba mate are all great though. The black tea is in my cupboards solely for guests only
Coffee in the morning, tea anytime after. Tea especially when it's cold. Great taste, zero calories, zero guilt.
I find I like coffee in the mornings, but prefer tea in the afternoon.
Coffee because tea doesn't contain caffeine... I think I only drink tea when I'm sick and I add a ton of honey and lemon juice so it doesn't even tastes like tea anymore.
Neither, they both just taste like bitter water
