And now, for yet another controversial topic...

 

Do you drink coffee or tea? What kind? Who what when where why how? Cream/Sugar/Syrups/Black? I'm into coffee/tea but I take it seriously, especially with coffee. I drink only the darkest roasts I can get, preferably "Obsidian", a very dark roast from Caribou Coffee in America. If you have access to a Caribou Coffee (They don't have it in all states) I would heartily recommend trying it. Make it strong. Since I have something that appears to be caffeine sensitivity, I can only drink a very small amount at a time, usually after lunch on Sunday. Cream, but no sugar and not too much cream either.

 

How about you?

I don't drink that stuff. It tastes bad at first because, well, it's nasty. People continue to drink it because caffeine is addictive. I drink chai, Indian style tea. That stuff is good. Probably because there's around 2 teaspoons of sugar per cup, but still, that's some good [cabbage].

Coffee. Iced coffee only, and it's a major vice of mine.

 

I don't like hot drinks.

 

@1230abcz: Coffee lovers certainly don't just put up with the taste of coffee because of caffeine addiction. It might be a little wierd at first, but after a while it tastes great.

People continue to drink it because caffeine is addictive.

Not true. I drink it entirely because of the taste, and at the most about once a week.

I drink my coffee in a variety of ways, from over sweetened to black. Depends on if I need a sugar boost or caffeine rush. I also drink tea, but that's always with a pretty large quantity of sugar or honey.

I can't stand coffee. My friend is in love with the stuff though.

 

I also can't have enough iced tea. I'll drink iced tea in the dead of winter because hot tea just feels odd inside of my stomach.

I've only liked coffee with a lot of sugar and cream. Coffee with only water+beans tastes rancid to me. Never had the good tasting type apparently.

It's funny when people take coffee seriously.

 

I'll have it once in a while. I'm not that big of a fan. I only do it because it gives me something to do.

i like coffee better. i only tried tea once...forgot when and smells a lot better too.

Oh, and tea. I tried it once, but I really didn't taste anything special. Didn't taste particularly bad, but it just tasted like water + sugar.

When I tell people I'm from Washington/ Seattle area most people assume I drink coffee but I don't. I am a fan of Chai tea though, I have two boxes of it in my kitchen and I usually make it when I'm working on a serious homework assignment like a midterm paper. I haven't tried many types of teas, so if I'm up for any sort of recommendations if anyone wants to share!

Chai tea is really good, I agree. There's this stuff that we once had, it was like a powder, that was labeled Chai tea, it was like creamy and sweet but I doubt it was actually chai, as I've found chai in about three different forms and they've all been different.

Maybe it has an identity crisis or something.

Chai is Water, ground coffee beans, milk, herb/spices. A lot of people put many different things to make chai spicier or stronger. I personally like brown sugar and ginger with some other spices.

I don't like coffee at all, and tea isn't my favorite. But I am a southern boy, so if it's real hot you can usually find at least one person drinking some iced tea between me and my friends.

The closest thing I drink to coffee would be iced capps from Tim Hortons

I might get something from starbucks now and then but I generally don't drink much coffee.

 

Tea I never have.

I don't drink (or even like) coffee or tea. I do like coffee ice cream and Java Chip Frappuccinos from Starbucks, but that's as close to coffee as I get :P

 

Hot chocolate ftw!

Working at a Coffee House for 2 years makes you like coffee. Guaranteed. But now I drink tea in the afternoon, relaxes me more.

I love coffee and sweet tea. I always pour a lot of sugar and cream into my coffee, though. If it's black, I usually mix it with milk or something. Unsweetened tea tastes too much like water. If it's going to just taste like water, I'd rather just drink water.

I like coffee and sweet lemon tea.

 

I usually drink my coffee with lots of milk (and sugar sometimes). I don't like tea that much except for lemon tea with a lot of sugar.

Black tea is great, with some milk and sugar. I just love having a mug for breakfast.

Tea, earl grey. I don't drink tea very often, but it's nice once in a while. No sugar or milk.

I keep to two cups of coffee a day, otherwise you just have to run to the bathroom during the night. I prefer dark roasted, plain black, no sugar or anything.

I cant stand Coffee or Tea, and especially Iced Coffee, so Im going to try Ice Tea tomorrow to see if I hate that also, otherwise its sticking to Red Bull.

I'm going to say coffee anyday.

Tea is nice and refreshing as 'iced tea' but for me it just tastes like water with something not right in it.

 

Coffee however is amazing, tastes nice however you have it (milky, with chocolate or watever else)

I drink coffee almost every day, but often not the "real" coffee; i take a coffee with milk in a bar/pub when i have some spare time between classes or on weekends i go to the local pub with friends. When i stay at home, i make myself a ~2.5dl cup of black coffee with a bit of sugar and some milk. YUM! Nothing can beat that ;) (mostly, i only drink coffee before noon)

 

I also like tea - green and black ones. I usually drink green or white tea with milk, but recently i've started adding a tiny bit of cinnamon in it, and that tastes even better :) - it even makes some black teas i didn't like that much a lot better; Earl Grey with cinnamon is now among my favourites :D
