Do you prefer tea or coffee?

[rob16d]

Do you prefer tea or coffee? And with sugar/milk?

[ciderally]

it depends on the time of day..coffee in the morning ..tea afternoon and night...dont ask why..i have no idea just the way it is...

[rob16d]

I think that's the same with me...love my tea milky and sugary! Well and my coffee!!


*goes off to make some coffee*

[A_Usher]

Tea, black, and i drink a lot of green tea and herbal tea.
Dont like coffee..

[Ash]

depends on my mood, also on time and place, i prefer tea to instant coffee, my tea is milk and one sweetner, coffee i love milky coffee... yummy

[karia]

Hi rob,

Definitely tea, preferably green or Herbal...I don't like the effects of caffeine either in coffee or Cola, it makes some people 'wired to the moon':lol:

[floyed]

I drink green tea by the gallon:D

[rob16d]

Usher and Karia, I'm a fan of green tea with lemon!

Ash, I don't like instant as much either. :)

Floyed, I think I do too! How can anyone not, it's delicious!

(PS.....400th post O.o)

[STUDMUFFIN]

tea, 2 sugars and a tiny bit of milk. mmmmmmmmmm

[rob16d]

tea, 2 sugars and a tiny bit of milk. mmmmmmmmmm

We're almost identical in tea tastes...except I like more milk! Almost 1/3 of a cup full!

[rs 2k]

I like a nice strong cup o tea in the morning, with a tiny drop of milk, no sugar

Coffee rest of the day but with carnation milk and no sugar

Hubby hates tea, he is coffee addicted with 2 sugars and milk, he has a cup every half an hour :lol:

[Gizmo]

When i stopped drinking alcohol i found myself drinking around 8 cups of very strong coffee a day, before that it was around 1 cup of coffee a week with 3 cups of Tea a day.

Now i have about a 50/50 split between Tea & Coffee, milk no sugar, and the Coffee has to be strong, Nescafe' Espresso is my fav just now, it's strong and has a creamy texture to it....luverly :)

[Gizmo]

I have a mate that only drinks Tea, and Tea so weak that i always used to make fun of it and ask him how much tea did he want in his milk :)

[Hibeechick]

Tea, but it has to be peach, and granules or powder, not tea bags. :D

[XR2]

Got to be real ground coffee, not instant and drink it black and no sugar. Illy Espresso is really good. Don't like tea.

[justine]

Do you prefer tea or coffee? And with sugar/milk?


As you are offeing i will take a cup of mellowbirds,1/2 tsp, 2 tsp of coffee whitener(tescos only) and 2 sugars, Please.....I am sure you have a kettle dont we..

[teddybear1873]

Love tea. I still drink coffee but turned to decaff. I was taking far too much caffeine and it wasnt doing me any good.

[Highland Laddie]

Same here Decaf coffee, white no sugar and plenty of it.

can't thole tea.

[Margaret M.]

Tea -- white, green, black or red. I have to have a splash of soy milk in black tea but no cream in any of the others and no sugar. I heard on the news yesterday that a Scottish study showed that drinking lots of black tea can help prevent Type II diabetes.

I do love the smell of coffee brewing but I seldom drink it.

[crashbandicoot1979]

Green tea or herbal teas, mainly nettle, mint or camomile. I'll occasionally take regular tea with milk, no sugar (used to take it with 3 sugars in my younger days, yuck!!!). I drink coffee very very rarely as caffeine makes me go funny - after a couple of cups I act as if I've been drinking alcohol, its very bizarre.

[Angela]

Always tea first thing -something full -flavoured like Assam, with a wee bit of milk.

Mid morning -coffee, with milk and a quarter teaspoon of sugar (I've cut down, but can't quite give it up :roll:)-or if I'm out and about, a cappuccino.

In the afternoon, a cup of Earl Grey, and in the evening, camomile & spearmint, to help me sleep, zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz :)

[Rheghead]

I will drink either, especially if someone else makes it.

[chaz]

Coffee, milk,no sugar:) Lots of the stuff

[Lavenderblue2]

Both really, first thing I have black Lady Grey, then at about 10am good coffee (not instant) with dem. sugar and a wee dash of cream - the rest of the day it is black Lady Grey - I try not to have any after 8pm...:eek:

[rob16d]

Keep the orders coming.....phew..making all this tea ad coffee is hard work...I think I'll go on a tea break!

[twiglet]

Tea, strong, milk no sugar or green tea with lemon. Can't drink coffee (migrane trigger).

[rob16d]

Awwwww, I ACTUALLY sympathize.....I love coffee....do you enjoy the taste at all though?

[golach]

Prefer strong black Coffee with sugar most of the time, but I do like a nice Scottish Blend cup of Tea, again with no milk and a little sugar.

This thread got me wondering, do the Tea drinkers on the Org pour the milk in their cups, before the Tea or vica versa?

Moi, I pour the milk in last of course......The cold milk makes it harder to dissolve the sugar.

[miranda]

tea is yeuch!!!!!!! coffee with lots of milk morning.. noon ..and night:lol:

[rob16d]

How DO you sleep miranda with all that caffeine!

[sweetpea]

Tea please, leave the bag in the cup but plenty milk.:) Don't do coffee.

[rob16d]

but coffee is lovely

[helenwyler]

There's an interesting history to Coffee Houses in Britain.

In 1674 an anonymous "Women's petition against Coffee" outlined the dangers of this strange, new dangerous coffee to the male species.

One of the perceived dangers was enfeebled performance of their manly duties;).

....our men, who in former Ages were justly esteemed the
Ablest Performers in Christendome; But to our unspeakable
Grief, we find of late a very sensible Decay of that
true Old English Vigour; our Gallants being every way so
Frenchified, that they are become meer Cock-sparrows,
fluttering things that come on Sa sa, with a world of Fury,
<<p.2>>
but are not able to stand to it, and in the very first Charge
fall down flat before us. Never did Men wear greater
Breeches, or carry less in them of any Mettle whatsoever.

And coffee made them even more talkative than women!

For besides, we have reason to apprehend
and grow Jealous, That Men by frequenting these
Stygian Tap-houses will usurp on our Prerogative of
<<p.4>>
Tatling, and soon learn to exeel us in Talkativeness: a
Quality wherein our Sex has ever Claimed preheminence:
For here like so many Frogs in a puddle, they sup muddy
water, and murmur insignificant notes till half a dozen of
them out-babble an equal number of us at a Gossipping, talking
all at once in Confusion, and running from point to
point as insensibly, and as swiftly, as ever the Ingenious
Pole-wheel could run divisions on the Base-viol;

The men did reply, denying it all, of course [lol]!

[rob16d]

I don't understand :(

[helenwyler]

Sorry Rob!

I know the language is convoluted[lol].

The petition is saying that men...ahem... lose their virility, and begin to chatter and indulge in idle gossip, which is unfair because talkativeness is a women's prerogative!! And it's all down to drinking coffee!:eek:

[rob16d]

Haha! You'd think they were talking about alcohol!

[Bobbyian]

[quote=golach;352227]Prefer strong black Coffee with sugar most of the time, but I do like a nice Scottish Blend cup of Tea, again with no milk and a little sugar.

That was put just right I agree..... just lately we have managed to arrange a sorce for Scottish blend L o v e l y

[Lavenderblue2]

I know what it is Rob16d - you are getting us all sussed out before asking us all round for coffee in your new house.
We'll all sit there partaking in our preferred beverage, admiring your new plants.
Is there anything else you need that we might bring with us?

Lavenderblue2 :D

[rob16d]

Ewwwww black coffee and tea!

[rob16d]

Too right! Gonna show off my new greenery! You could take some custard creams.....addicted to them!

[Alice in Blunderland]

I like strong tea brewed in a pot with a dash of milk. I also like a cup of green tea now and again for a treat. :D

[Valerie Campbell]

Tea by the bucket!

[hell raizer]

tea with plenty milk, no sugar :roll:

[chocolatechip]

I like tea when I home and not working, but when at work I like coffee with sugar

[lazytown]

I dont like tea...love my coffee, milk no sugar.

As for Golach's Question: The milk goes in the cup/mug first then the hotwater.

[herenow]

[nicnic74]

Coffee with 2 sugars 1st thing in e morn
& then tea the rest o e day wee no sugar
as i get sweeter as e day goes on:lol:

[Julia]

I like earl grey tea and ordinary tea, with just a skint of milk (after the water) and it has to be in a china mug, makes it taste better.

Quality coffee, strong with milk and one sugar preferably unrefined ;)

[rob16d]

The china mug doesn't make a difference??

[rockchick]

Both really, first thing I have black Lady Grey, then at about 10am good coffee (not instant) with dem. sugar and a wee dash of cream - the rest of the day it is black Lady Grey - I try not to have any after 8pm...:eek:

oooo...another Lady Grey fan. I just love this tea!

I also enjoy coffee...but it has to be real coffee. Sorry folks, but Nescafe just ISN'T COFFEE!!! It's Nescafe...in a class by itself.

[quiteone]

[Foxy]

I like tea with milk and 1 sugar and i make it in the cup then add milk. I never drink coffee as it brings on migraine.

[rob16d]

Coffee seems to bring on migraines for a few people?

[aburns]

:)Ever since my first pregnancy i can't stand the smell of the stuff!!! (Coffee) I have maybe 2 -3 cups of tea in a day, u cana have it without dunking in a biscuit!!! By the way plenty milk & no sugar xx Hope all has a good day x

[Sandra_B]

I'd rather have tea but it just doesn't taste right outside of the UK, so if I'm needing a hot drink it's got to be coffee.

[weestraw]

Tea - Tetley with a drip of milk or Earl Grey Black but usually Nescafe BLACK GOLD coffee black no sugar - Soooo Good

[rob16d]

MMmm Im waiting on my sugary, milky tea to brew!

[karia]

The best cup of (non herbal) tea is always to be had alongside the cooked breakfast on holiday before venturing out for a days exploring.:)

Black tea....no milk no sugar.

At home it is a mug of hot water and a healthy breakfast.:(

[obiron]

def tea with a good splash of skimmed milk.

[rob16d]

I've round out of milk! :( Will someone email me some?
