Since this is the Café... do you like tea or coffee?

[CLHC]

Starbucks? There's Peet's! :thumbsup:

 

[fieldops]

I buy both, just like here on CPF........where's rehab

 

[tradderran]

Give me my Cafe Noire. Coffee Black as the night and strong as three week old sweat socks. Now that is a man's drink.:thumbsup::twothumbs

Same here, BLACK, no sugar... can`t be doing with all the messing about with fancy coffee with cream or hot milk or sugar or .... chocolate sprinkles Ewwww!

I drink iced tea every morning! About 15 oz of tea, plus ice. Either, Trader Joe's unsweetened green tea, or the other one they sell, Tejava unsweetened black tea. I make them slightly sweet with Agave nectar (the best sweetener, period, IMO--low GI and best taste!). I also enjoy coffee every now and then, but not too often. I really enjoy a good capuccino, either, hot or iced, too.

 

[glockboy]

Love both.
For tea, I love Ten Lu.
Coffee, I like Kenya green coffee bean from sweetmaria.

 

[tiktok 22]

I drink various non-flavored black, green and white teas. Probably a gallon a day. No coffee.

I was going to watch this thread grow and cheer when other tea-lovers check in, but I had to spend the weekend away from the internet, so oh well... But I guess it's healthy to do that sometimes.

Nyctophiliac: Excellent response, I didn't even think of using light terminology on describing tea, although tint is actually quite relevant. And I completely forgot redbush (they call it rooibos around here, but it's the same). I was a bit resistant to it at first, but it's actually not a bad drink. Not quite tea, though.

The_LED_Museum: sorry, it didn't even cross my mind to add choices for pop/soda/etc. or even plain water. I don't drink beer either, but I put it in as a joke because it was friday (and I knew some people would vote for it).

Joe Talmage: I can't believe I forgot white teas as well! Bai Mu Dan is my favorite. Very light and delicate, but really good when you drink it with some concentration.

I was expecting coffee to win this one easily, so I'm pleasantly surprised by how even it turned out. Coffee got more mostly-votes, but tea got more only-votes. It does look like coffee won (so far, you can still vote!), but only by a small margin.

Thank you to everyone who posted and voted!

Coffee, the prefered beverage of the US since 1773

 

[chevrofreak]

Try Thai iced tea - delicious!

Thai Iced Coffee is even better

 

[Pistolero]

I probably drink more coffee, but I actually LIKE tea.
Favorites in order:
Formosa Jade Green/Oolong
Spring Darjeeling (esp a good first flush)
Ti Kuan Yin. I don't know why, I dig this tea.

 

[Kestrel]

Arise, I command !! :devil: Voted 'mostly tea'.

 

[Tejasandre]

Mountain Dew

n-n-n-n-necrobump!

Voted Beer.

When I drink tea, I'm with Captain Picard. "Earl Grey, hot."

 

[MrJino]

When it comes to coffee, I don't care, gimme the gas station stuff.

When it comes to tea, i only drink barley and/or corn tea. Usually both mixed. I cannot drink caffeine teas, keeps me up all night.

Interesting! I'd never head of corn tea before.

I'd try it, but it isn't paleo.

I'm uncertain what paleo is, ancient diet?
Asians have been drinking corn and Barley tea for quite some time, Barley probably being older.

This corn stuff looks good. I would have no problems trying that out.

I am more familiar with the American version of Corn drinks:

I am embarrassed to say this, I like the Taco Bell coffee. Its pretty darn good to me and 1/3 the price of Starbucks.
