I was too, originally. But I got carried away.

Neither. I don't drink tea due to an incident a while ago involving making my own tea with an aluminum can and a bunch of pine needles. I used to drink coffee, but then I realized that it did absolutely squat besides cost more, and the taste wasn't really worth it.

Now, hot chocolate, on the other hand, is delicious and wonderful.

I like making tea. I like the process. I like the tea kettle. I like filling up my tea thing with leaves. I like watching it seep out. I like the taste, too. ^_^

I never add honey or sugar though. I hate honey and sugar is pretty meh. I will occassionally mix a fruity tea with a dark tea if I want something different. I'm almost out of my Nine Dragon Golden Needle, so I'll probably switch to Chai soon until I get myself back to the tea store.

Also, I don't find it hard to get. Both Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks have hot tea, as do most coffee shops I've been in. And there's stores at the mall dedicated just to selling varieties of tea... So at least in New England tea seems pretty popular.

I drink a lot of tea. Usually Earl Grey, occasionally English Breakfast. And always hot, unless I forgot about it and left it for too long.

Not a great fan of the smell or taste of coffee on its own, or when it's overpowering, but drinks with Coffee in can be quite tasty.

Drinking Tea is kinda expected of me, being English.

I drink silly amounts of tea - to the point where I drink no water at all. Usually it's either barley tea or some black tea that'll vary depending on my mood.

I also drink coffee whenever I can get hold of it for the caffeine, but I usually default to a large amount of whatever caffeinated beverage is cheapest where I am.

i love both, but i can't stand the way you guys in the anglosphere drink coffee, over here in my country coffee universally means espresso. among teas and infusions, my favorite is by far a strong infusion of rooibos, optionally blended with dried fruits or cacao beans, or a very faint, high quality green tea (gorreana from the azores is my first choice). i drink both without sugar, unless the coffee is too roasted, then i add a bit of sugar to soften it

Also, coffee is my favorite flavor of ice cream.
together with walnut  :P

I love both. I like my coffee very bold with half a teaspoon of sugar. I like most sorts of hot tea, peppermint is probably my favorite though, also with a half teaspoon of sugar. Iced tea is also nice, but it's usually made too sweet.

Yeah but then you have to deal with loose leaves in your tea.

Unless you have some sort of filter for that \ol('_')lo/

what do you guys call this?

i actually don't mind tea leaves, but rooibos leaves are too small and it's hard to avoid drinking them, so i filter rooibos, but i generally don't bother with tea
