Tea

Coffee

Some magical third drink that slipped my mind whilst writing this

Both

[Jreengus]

I drink my tea black steaming hot and excessively. If I'm not drinking tea it's because I'm making tea. I used to drink it white but after I moved out I stopped getting milk since tea is the only thing I drink it with a now white tea tastes funny.

[Jopax]

I can only stand milk in earl grey, the others just seem watered down and tasteless with it.

[malimbar04]

I swear we've had this thread before. Anyways, Coffee is on par with drinking black tar to me - and I'll avoid drinks with a coffee mix as such. Tea, however, is fricking amazing.

[PCpaste]

Oh, look at that, Tea is winning.

I honestly expected it to be shot down...

[Acanthus117]

That's because over 70% of the forumites here are intellectuals who do not allow the barbaric bean-stew known as coffee to disrupt their sensitive palates.

[Ottofar]

Tea, all the way.

[Bauglir]

They're both delicious, although I'll typically only drink coffee when I need a caffeine hit, and I just plain rarely drink tea (iced tea I'm not such a fan of, and I have a tendency to drink hot chocolate when I want a hot drink: honey + cocoa powder is great times). Energy drinks, though, gods damn are they delicious. As soon as I'm far enough off withdrawal that having any caffeine whatsoever won't immediately re-addict me, I'll probably go back to them (trying to limit myself to 2 to 3 a week, never on adjacent days).

[Levi]

I drink copious amounts of both.  Black coffee to get me alive in the morning, and then tea in the evening. 

[Darvi]

Tea. I still have scars from coffee.

[Africa]

Tea, because caffeine is the damn devil.

I do love a cup of Turkish/Arabic coffee though.

[PCpaste]

You know, Tea has caffiene in it too...

[RedKing]

Especially the way I make it.
I.e. brew two or three times as many teabags per given volume of water as normally called for, balanced by prodigious amount of sugar, and quenched in a pitcher of ice. Essentially I make like a tea concentrate, then rapidly cool, sweeten and dilute it all at once by pouring over a pitcher of ice and sugar. I had to switch to using decaf tea because I drink so much.

[Patchouli]

I drink both, but very infrequently due to a. expense and b. extreme jitter-magic.

A lot of oolong and some greens can be infused at least twice, so you can get a fair run of cups with just a bit of the stuff. Comes out a hell of a lot cheaper than coffee in the long run at least, especially if you just hit your local chinatown or whatever.

That's because over 70% of the forumites here are intellectuals who do not allow the barbaric bean-stew known as coffee to disrupt their sensitive palates.

I am also surprised by the coffee hate. I think it smells awesome and makes you feel nice when drinking it on cold days. I "ruin" it by sugaring and creaming like crazy, but I still like it as a treat now and then.

[Nadaka]

I like my coffee like I like my women.

Insert vulgar euphemism here.

Anyway.

I drink tea often, classic southern iced tea, but with less sugar and no ice.

I drink coffee occasionally, mostly with a lot of sugar, cream and chocolate.

[RedKing]

I like my coffee like I like my women.

Roasted, ground up and steeped in hot water? You're a sick bastard.
