My first choice is coffee, but I will drink tea if it's iced and has a wedge of lemon.  :)

::)  As is usually the case, I have both a hot cup of coffee and a hot cup of tea in front of me.   

This is hard to vote on, because I love a good cup of coffee, but I also drink a lot of tea. Lately I've been drinking this excellent organic tea from Taiwan that has no tannin and is 97% caffeine free. It's so weak I need to use two teabags to get much of a flavour, but it's good stuff.

I like Gunpowder Green Tea. Don't drink much coffee.

I'm a tea drinker...either hot or iced.  I love the smell of coffee, but can't stand the taste.

I like both, but drink more coffe than I do tea.

I said coffee, even though I don't really like to drink regular coffee.  I prefer mochas, lattes, etc.  My personal favorite: Mocha Coconut Frapp from Starbucks (or, as my sister calls it, a "Mocho Froco")

Definitely,tea. I can't stand cofee.

Coffee, but it has to have some kind of flavored coffee creamer in it. And in the summer I drink alot of iced tea with sugar and no lemon.

Tea, hot or iced. Scared of coffee...had a bad experience once with a triple swiss latte.

cappuccino baby! and iced cap!

I'm a tea drinker (can't stand coffee). I take milk and sweetner - in a big mug.

I drink coffee in the morning, but what I really adore is iced barley tea.

Bonox....

Tea actually  :)

:DI drink more coffee,but i like lots of kinds of tea,too,like green tea,Russian tea,chai tea,Thai iced tea,mint tea,etc.When i go to coffee places i like to get self-serve coffee and put in lots of cocoa ,honey,Sugar twin,cinnamon,and milk---kind of a super-charged hot chocolate,really!very good,too1Cheers! ;D :D 8)

I'm a heavy coffee drinker. ;)


Howard

Bonox....

Tea actually  :)


What is Bonox? ???


Howard

I really do not care of either but I would pick Tea over Coffee.  Iced Tea, of course.

I like coffee, but I've managed to give it up. :)
Now I've weaned myself off onto different kinds of herbal teas (I have a cupboard about half-filled with them!)- regular tea is nasty. :P

What is Bonox? ???


Howard


Bonox is a like a beef broth, Howard. ;)

The commercial for it used to pose the question 'Coffee, tea or Bonox ?'  :)

I'm drinking a nice cup of tea whilst reading the boards.

I used to hate even the smell of coffee.  I'm getting used to the smell but it still tastes foul.  :-X

Same here, Howard...

Although not the filter variety - it's too bitter...I'll stick with the instant...

I also plough through a fair bit of tea...some bright spark did try and market an 'instant tea' (like the coffee) many moons ago which didn't really catch on...

I had the misfortune to be served a cup of that last week.  How it manages to be both instant and tasted 'stewed' is a mystery to me.  I think I managed to have about three sips so as not to offend and then put it down to pay attention in the meeting.  Suddenly, it was too cold to drink.  What a shame  ;)

An extra large Tim's double-double to start a work day but tea any other time

Not the filter variety?  Well no wonder you're able to drink so much coffee then!

When I drink coffee, I like it strong (though not 'Espresso strong').  I grind beans myself, and I add one scoop of grounds per cup!  I can't drink 'watered-down' coffee like the kind they serve at McDonald's....tastes like dishwater!  :o

I picked coffee because whenever I drink it once in a while, it's so good, it rocks!! I like black with sugar, but the specialty kinds with flavors, creams, froth, even iced can't be beat. I do drink almost as much tea!! :)

Not being an absolute connoisseur, I once made the fatal mistake of asking for an Espresso in the belief that what I was getting was something along the lines of a Cappucino...(you can see what's coming next, can't you?!!)

Not wishing to appear difficult by returning it, I downed this 'thimble' in one slug...jeez! I could still taste the thing three weeks later...!!

And being lazy, I probably also go for the instant because the washing-up is less grisly...!

Yikes!!!  :o

A couple years back when I was visiting Paris with my parents, I ordered an Espresso at this one little cafe.  I could not believe how strong it was!!!  Even with water as my chaser, I was not able to finish the 'tiny' cup.  My parents were drinking the same thing and they were saying, "Oh, this is nice" (meaning the coffee)!  They are they true coffee connisseurs, IMO!  ;)

I was going to fit a bicycle bell to the mug so that I can ring it, signalling my darling girlfriend to put the kettle on.  ;)

I had it once, and once only ! :P ;D

I like my coffee 2 sugars,half and half,lighly sweet. :P



Howard

I drink both tea and coffee, depends how i'm feeling at the time. I drink coffee white with half a sugar if I feel I need a sweetner.  Tea I drink white without sugar.  I find tea is a better thirst quencher than coffee.

I LOVE the smell of coffee but hate the taste....I prefer Tea! (And no, I am NOT a mormon!)

Tea

But I love the SMELL of Coffee  :)

I wonder why it is that so many people like the SMELL of coffee and yet they won't drink it.  I think it tastes just like it smells!  :-\\

Bonox is a like a beef broth, Howard. ;)

Bonox sounds like something that would come in a spray can to kill cockroaches.

"Use new extra-strength Bonox®... One quick shot will kill as many roaches as half a can of Raid!"

I thought you were typing the word Botox? ;D


Heh heh.  :D

Iced tea, hot tea, herbal (sometimes).

coffee light and sweet with half and half hazelnut flavor. ;)

If only it were......I'd buy a crate load ! ;D  I hate cockroaches  :P

I wonder why it is that so many people like the SMELL of coffee and yet they won't drink it.

Probably because of the bitterness, which isn't necessarily apparent in the aroma.

Has anyone tried to drink hot coffee in the hot summertime when it's like 90 degrees? :o

"I've got a fetish for you, a fetish for me, I've got a fetish for coffee, I've got a fetish for tea"

I went with coffee, just because. I like tea as long as its iced tea.

I think this is why they came up with Iced Coffee!  Good stuff, and very popular where I am!  ;)

Lots of iced tea in the summer. :)

Never had much of a taste for tea, so I voted for coffee, although I don't drink nearly as much of it as I used to.  The closest I usually get nowadays is the vanilla espresso at SuperAmerica, although it's a lot closer to hot chocolate than it is to coffee.

I LOVE the smell of coffee but hate the taste....I prefer Tea! (And no, I am NOT a mormon!)


My mother was raised as a Mormon (she's now lapsed) - she drinks coffee but not tea.  Go figure ???  Her sisters, when they visit from America, drink neither.

Same here, although I do drink iced coffee on occasion.  :)

It's kinda hard for me to vote for one or the other, because I do drink both. However, I like tea more, so if anything, I'll go with tea. However, I only drink coffee when I need to stay awake, or if it's a decaf Frappuccino or something from Starbucks.

I drink Tea with Lemon when I have a sore throat!


Howard

Tea, usually Earl Grey

Tea-almost every kind. Never did aquire a taste for coffee but the funny thing is, I own stock in Green Mountain Coffee. Sounds strange to own stock in something that I don't use (but many people get it as gifts from me.  ;)).

Coffee has been my version of cigarettes.It's very addictive.I can have at least up to 3 cups depending on my mood of the day.

I don't like coffee in general, but I like Frappacinnos (or however you spell that), and I like tea, but not a whole lot.

During the Victorian times, milk was put into the cups first, so that the heat from the tea being poured into the cup would not crack it.

I made the fatal mistake of ordering an 'Espresso' once...

...not being a connoisseur, I thought I was ordering a 'Cappucino' or something similar, so I was somewhat taken aback when this thimble was put in front of me...

So, being a 'game' sort-of fella, I indulged...

I think I eventually got to sleep about three weeks later...!! Evil...!!

Coffee would be the drink of choice.

Around 1 or 2 a day.

Tea, usually. But I do drink coffee sometimes.

Why isn't there a "both" option? ???

I have no preference.

Tea, with lemon. I can't stand coffee.  :-X

I get the shakes when I drink a lot of coffee. ;D

Coffee, definitely, whether it be Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts.

Coffee, definitely, whether it be Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts.

I like the Starbucks best...especially the eggnog latte when it's in season.

Most other times, however, I mainly prefer tea...whether it's hot or cold, depending upon the time of year.

Coffee!!! I do like tea, but it's always coffee. The Coffee Bean is much better than Starbucks for their frappucinos.

I only drink them once in a while, but I use to drink more tea when I was younger..thou I do like Tim Horton's Ice Capp Supreme :)

I love them both equally. Have to have my cup of hot coffee in the morning, then iced tea in the afternoon! :)

I like them both.

It used to be coffee, but then I went to Philadelphia, and a darling lass named GIS taught me how to have a proper cup of tea with cream in it.  So now I like tea a lot more.  I go back and forth between the two.  I even have a real tea kettle now and everything. :)

I know both Karen & Gis hate me because I love Lipton tea and I keep the tea bag in the cup forever-and yeah, I also like iced tea, too.  :-\\

But no cream/milk, no sugar, & no lemon. Just water & the tea bag (or with iced tea-maybe some ice cubes & a straw). When I first started drinking tea as a kid, I drank it with milk but then I stopped-because I basically stopped drinking milk and hardly ever have it in the house.

Like coffee once in a while but it has to be made a certain way, not with a coffee making machine. And I like tea but I prefer iced. 

Wow, I think I've been drinking a lot of coffee lately since we got our new Keurig coffee machine a few months ago, our family have been drinking coffee like crazy and I like the different flavors too.
