Thread: Tea or Coffee?

Not sure if a thread on this has been made or not.

I have been drinking a lot of tea lately and I am starting to enjoy it more and more. Right now, it is just green tea and mint tea but I do also enjoy white tea when it is cold. I grew up drinking coffee from the age of 13. I started drinking those cappuccino things before school. It helps a lot to keep me awake. I eventually moved on to starbucks and then away from starbucks and to some"just add water" powdered coffee mix. I drink that now and then but for the most part, it is tea for me!

Which do you drink/prefer more?

I hate coffee. I tried to acquire the taste, but I nearly burned my tongue off trying to enjoy it. I really love drinking tea, however, especially green tea. Do you prefer loose-leaf? And how do you brew it?

Neither. I'm one of those weirdos who'd order hot chocolate at the coffee shop.

I have only done bags myself. I get non-gmo and organic brands only. I will just use an electric kettle and pour it over. I let it sit for about 6 minutes. I like it stronger. Funny thing too, since I don't add anything to it, I rub the tea bag on my face before tossing it. Green tea is really good for skin!

I've been drinking plain coffee all my life but I recently decided to switch to a combination of coffee and chocolate. A barrista friend taught me how to prepare it and it taste great hot or cold.

The flavored creamers they make are good for a change. I never liked black coffee. I always needed it to be very sweet and at that point, it isn't even healthy for me lol

Tea totally. I love green tea to death, it is the only hot beverage I would dare touch.

When it comes to taste and aroma, I prefer coffee. But there are many teas with a lot of health benefits and if only for that I would choose to drink tea more often than coffee. I cannot deny the fact though that the smell of coffee is awesome and it makes me happy! I am happy to see that a lot of cafes are into freshly brewed coffees and good quality teas. I think we should be wise in choosing the good beverage to drink always.

This year at college I'm going to split my money into my Savings, Grocery Budget, and my Tea Budget.

I really hate the smell and taste of coffee, to me it's revolting and I cannot understand how anyone can drink it.

I love my tea... yes I am British, what of it. But I've decided to stop drinking hot drinks for a while due to acid reflux gets fled with hot drinks. So, no groovy tea.
