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

Tea.

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

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.

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.

Right on! The smell is as great as the taste...
A cup of tea first and then a few espresso's during the day. But with sugar and a cup of coffee cream (Dutch style) for me.
By the way, Konovalov, the Italian word is written (and expressed) as espresso.

I remember years ago when I was a little nipper, we had a fresh coffee shop full of different coffee beans. And I must admit the smell was very nice indeed, may go to explain why I drunk a lot of coffee in my teenager years and in to my twenties. But now in my late thirties I drink a lot more tea, but I do enjoy a good cup of real fresh coffee not that instance rubbish, the real thing and nothing less.

SmokinTep · 04-04-06, 11:58 AM

I usually have one cup of coffee in the morning. Only tea I like is "Iced Tea"

I would concur with that.
