Re: Coffee or tea?
Hmph, no both option? I like both. 
Re: Coffee or tea?
I can agree on that

Re: Coffee or tea?
Yeah what is up with that?
Still want to try that Chinese drink that's coffee and tea at the same time.

Re: Coffee or tea?
I never did post in this thread, but I like how I prefer tea, and tea won.
(shame on those 3 people who don't like either of them
)
Well while I'm here, I like Tetley, with only a small amount of milk, and no sugar.

Re: Coffee or tea?
Tea for me, personally. I would usually get up in the morning and make a cup of it myself. Sweet peppermint beverage.
Re: Coffee or tea?
I was a fan of coffee, but when I started to get reflux, I started drinking tea instead.

Re: Coffee or tea?
Tea because it normally lacks caffeine.
Re: Coffee or tea?
I drink much tea, but I can't imagine my morning without a cup of coffee with milk and sugar 
Re: Coffee or tea?
The tea I drink does contain caffeine, and I always need a cup of tea in the morning. Whether it agrees with me or not is another story, I was blessed with the trait of El Stomacho.

Re: Coffee or tea?
I stopped putting sugar and milk in my general coffee a long time back so mornings are just espressos. When I do end up getting a plain cappuccino (eg in McDonald’s or Wetherspoon) I took a liking to putting a canderel rather than two tsps of sugar, it does the job along with cocoa powder.

Re: Coffee or tea?
I do like both. If I were to choose one, I'd have to choose tea. If I were to choose between my favorite coffee or my favorite tea, I would 100% go with coffee. But the fact is, in general, I like way more teas than I do coffee. So it being more universal for me personally, that's why tea is my answer.
Re: Coffee or tea?
Originally, I chose tea on this poll, but recently, upon trying multiple kinds of mild (versions of?) coffee like cappuccino and some other types of slightly stronger Italian coffee, I think I prefer coffee over tea. I like tea a lot also though, especially strawberry tea and black tea.

Re: Coffee or tea?
Clearly coffee now, though I'll tolerate tea as long as no sugar or milk is added to turn it into that foul mixture which is an insult to all of the culinary achievements of mankind.
Re: Coffee or tea?
I do use a tiny bit of milk (I can't tolerate it if it's a legit cup of milk though), but it's black tea I drink. I would never use sugar in it though, it would literally make me puke.

Re: Coffee or tea?
I have been drinking more tea than coffee myself now these days. I rarely add milk and instead of sugar I use honey if I want sweetness.
Admittedly when I drank coffee as a teenager I used to add quite a bit of sugar and definitely a lot of cream to my coffee bc I didn’t like how bitter it tasted back then. I’ve become more tolerant to it now but I don’t think I could take, like an extra dark chocolate bar or a cup of black coffee just yet tbh.

Re: Coffee or tea?
I like to drink coffee with milk in the morning and it really invigorates me.

Re: Coffee or tea?
I love sugar, but not in my coffee. I actually find the mix of bitter and sweet really disgusting, so I only drink it black.The Jonster wrote: Fri May 29, 2020 10:13 pm Admittedly when I drank coffee as a teenager I used to add quite a bit of sugar and definitely a lot of cream to my coffee bc I didn’t like how bitter it tasted back then.

Re: Coffee or tea?
I prefer no sugar too, I drink coffees for the taste (and the buzz, obviously), and I think adding sugar just detracts from that. Also it's amazing how much I'm saving on takeaway coffees now, in quarantine. I bought a decent barista machine last month and it's easily paid for itself already!

Re: Coffee or tea?
Yeah, takeaway coffees add up, that's for sure.
As for me, I should buy a machine too, this would be nicer than the instant coffee I've been drinking for months now!

Re: Coffee or tea?
I'd love the privilege of being able to stomach coffee again, reflux makes it impossible for me these days.
