Its friday morning and nothing smells as good as coffee brewing in the kitchen. I usually start my morning with coffee if I have the time! Several years ago I also started to drink "green tea" for the antioxidants I wonder if it really works. I drink tea later in the day or at night. So which one is it?


P.S. My kids are home today- (teacher conference day at school) and I have a (3) day weekend !!!!!!!!!!

    Neither. :( If I had to choose, I'd choose tea. I can handle tea with a couple of sugars and lots of milk and cookies to dip in it! Coffee is digusting to me. I wish I understood the love for coffee. I feel so ripped off. :x

    hey! i had that problem a cuple of years ago when i was in my last year in high school and i was preparing for the big exam. in that time i used to drink around 4 coffees a day and wasn't very healty cuz i kinda have some heart problems. so.. after that year, i replaced coffee with earl grey, wich is stronger than the green one.
    anyways i think i'm a little addicted to coffee..hmm the smell the taste:D just can't resist it.
    i now switch them from time to time and i try to reduce coffee as much as i can.
    so in case you'll go for earl grey, i recommend u to add a little milk in your tea. it may sound weird, if u haven't tried it, but it taste quite good. the tastes are different from tea to tea because there are a lot of types and i had to try some more before i finally found my fav:D sorry for the looong message, hope is not entirely boring:P

    Earl grey tea is one of the best. Whenever I make a cold pitcher of tea, I put in several different flavored tea bags to see what I come up with!! It's fun to see what flavor I come up with.

    Generally coffee (morning, after lunch), but tea depends on my mood (and generally the season : it's winter and I often drink tea but in one month till november I'm not sure I'll drink much of it).

    I have my bottle of ice-tea every morning, home brewed of course.


    I can't stand coffee, the smell of the grinds and coffee breath just disgusts me. But to each their own! :)

    Coffee and Tea... I love both!

    Right now I'm drinking coffee because it's what we have here at work.
    I just like warm drinks.

    Don't like coffee and not a big fan of iced tea

    Coffee and Iced Tea.

    If you like Iced Tea, I suggest people try the Arizona Arnold Palmer Brand. It's fantastic.

    Both.

    Coffee at work (although sometimes i'll spoil myself and have hot chocolate!) and tea at home... unless it's a weekend morning, occasionally I have one cup of coffee.

    Can't drink green tea, I have an allergy and it make me violently sick. I really like dandelion and nettle tea though :thumbup:

    I prefer tea from England but I end up drinking more coffee when I'm in Florida.

    Tea, tea, tea!

    I don't like coffee at all, other than the smell. :D Sometimes I consider making a cup just to get that nice fragrance around. But I never ever ever drink it.

    I like all kinds of tea (iced too), at the moment my favourite is Lady Grey. It's a variation of Earl Grey (which I also like very much), mmmm..

    Right, now I need to go make a cup of the precious stuff. :mrgreen:


    EDIT: Oh, tea with a bit of honey, if possible. Very rarely milk, though sometimes I like that too. I like tea best when it's just cooled down enough to not burn my tongue but to still tingle it's way down my throat. :P

    Both. Herbal tea in the early morning (4.50 a.m.) when I say goodbye to my husband leaving for work, a big cup of coffee some hours later when the kids are at school.

    coffee or tea
    just depends on what i feel like having

    i like lemon and honey in my tea
    i like evaporated milk in my coffee

    i like a caramel silk mocha but i'm not into paying the 5 or 6 bucks for it.
