Coffee or Tea ?

[Bluesince1979]

I'm anywhere between 8 and 10 per day.

First thing in the morning I'll have a glass of water before my ride to work, then I'll usually 5 or 6 cups of black instant at work through the day, a flat-white (double shot of espresso) when I get home and another 1 or 2 instants up to about 8:30/9pm.

Usually in bed before 1130.

I have a high tolerance to caffeine. The downside of that is that if I go more than 12 hours without a coffee I end up with a massive headache.

That poll has floored me, coffee is uniquely disgusting among nearly all food/drink and I find it's appeal completely baffling. Tea is the drink of the gods and I take it very seriously - I stopped using teabags ages ago and now only drink (at home) loose leaf made in a teapot (those tea infuser things that you put in the cup are pretty useless imo).

For any other loose leaf fans I have one word - Booths. They do loads of varieties of loose leaf and all the ones I have tried have been excellent and incredibly good value. The only Booths remotely near me is in Halebarns and that's a bit of a trek but I go occasionally just to stock up on tea.

If I'm out, I will accept a cup made with a teabag if there's no choice but I try to find a cafe that does loose leaf (the cafes in Waterstones are my go-to if I'm in town)

Tea all the way.

M&S gold label only…..I also take it with me when I travel, people think I’m crazy.

Hot water, let it brew for 5 minutes, tiny splash of milk….perfection.

Coffee first thing , real coffee

Massive dump.

Then maybe 3 teas throughout the day. Last one at maybe 2pm.
If i have another after that its decaf

Must be a tough decision which to vote for.
I remember an Asian/Chinese guy I worked with, he had Tea/Coffee. Both together mixed in one cup.

Loose leaf tea brewed in a tea pot. Splash of semi skimmed, no sugar.
At least 5 mugs a day.
I also enjoy one cup of freshly brewed cafetière coffee each day.

A cup of tea with my breakfast. A cup of tea anytime of morning. A cup of tea with my dinner. A cup of tea anytime in the afternoon. A cup of tea with my tea. Enough said.

Proper tea is the bollocks,that dust in a cheap bag shite is appalling.My preference is Mao Feng,obviously on its own.

Two coffees a day,one with milk,are also a wonderful thing.
