Differemt leaves that give off a different color but most important a different flavor.

I started teen life with a coffee in the morning and decafes the rest of the day but more and more of those decafes turned into caffienated coffee.

BTW, no sugar whatsoever. :down: My husband got me to pass on the sugar righta after we were married. :up:

I thought tea only came in one flavour and that was tea flavoured tea ?

Tea leaves have more caffeine than coffee beans before they are brewed. However, tea is diluted quite a bit more than most coffees. The average cup of tea contains about half as much caffeine as the average cup of instant coffee, and the average cup of instant coffee contains about half as much caffeine as a cup of proper espresso coffee.

Tea contains more caffeine that coffee is an urban myth? Read on

Yes, old myth.

And of course, most herbal teas contain no caffeine at all. And, like coffee, there are plenty of decaf teas, if you really need one.

My experience is that one cup of coffee will prevent me from sleeping until it wears off, while drinking numerous teas or colas has absolutely no effect on me. Anyone else experience this discrepency?

Yup, no coffee for me after 18:00 or so (to be safe) tea is no problem for me. :hmm:

At this stage 70% in favour of Tea well I did not expect that. :D

Tea.

Mostly English Breakfast, with the occasional Earl Grey, Green, Mint, or Lapsang Souchong. Always aim for variety in life :)

Hellcat 04-04-06 07:04 AM

Tea, unless I'm up @ 5:00 am to finish some assignment then it's time for some strong black coffee....

Otherwise Earl Grey and Lemon tea does it for me.

Tea first but I love real coffee. By that I mean that I just can't stand the instant stuff. Give me an expresso any day of the week. Its freshly ground coffee or no coffee at all for me.

joea 04-04-06 08:52 AM

Real fresh ground coffee is the way to go, when I was a teenager Dad went on business trips to Brazil (helping deliver usbsea oil platforms for Patrobras) and would bring back real whole roasted coffee beans in simple plastic pouches. We had a grinder and there was nothing like the smell of that stuff. I love a nice cuppa tea too and usually drink that though as I said especially after 6PM or so.

Anyway just wanted to add a comment about caffeine..watch out for those energy drinks...they can really casue a caffeine overdose! I don't drink them very often, except I found a gurana drink from Brazil that is tasty and doesn't have tons of additives and gives a kick instead of tea or coffee.

I have to confess that I die from enjoyment inhaling the aroma in the coffee section at Zabars in NY.

Our kitchen is graced with the aroma of freshly ground coffee beans every Sunday morning. It's our own little treat whilst relaxing and reading the Sunday paper. :up:
