So which is it? I think I know what beverage is more popular, but hey, you never know. I was a tea drinker for the longest and then I had a cup of coffee and I wondered, Boy, what I've been missing! So now I'm leaning towards coffee. Which is for you guys-or do you not like any?

Oh Sweet Lord, coffee, coffee, coffee!

The nectar of life itself!

Tea is better especially Sleepy time tea.

Tea for me. My favorites are Earl Grey, Jasmine Green Tea, and Peach Iced Tea. If I want something a little more coffee like, I'll opt for chai. I don't drink hot coffee because I can't handle it. It smells better than it tastes and I hate the after taste. I like the blended coffees as a treat though, especially Iced Mocha. The more chocolate the better. :)

I prefer tea, specifically Tetley's regular and Chinese Fortune tea.

Of course, there is also decaf coffee, but let's not go there. :D

Amen, although I think coke is yucky too. Why do you like something that is so bitter (not refffering to coke ;) )??

I like tea a lot better than coffee. My favorites are green tea, oolong, chai, and Earl Grey. I have too much tea in the house! >.<

I like coffee, especially when it's super cold and super early in the day. But all in all, I prefer tea more, my favorites are green tea and Earl Grey. Actually, tea or coffee, it doesn't matter...I put the same amount of sugar in each!

I like tea, don't like coffee. But gimme tea with the caffeine!

Plantation Mint is probably my favorite (it's spearmint-y) but I also like Orange Pekoe, Earl Grey, and most others. But I avoid the ones without the caffeine. :)

Here's a fun fact: Want to cool off? Whoa, hold on there cowboy! Drinks with caffeine in them (tea, soda) constrict the blood vessels. Drink water or juice instead. Ahh, that's refreshing! No water or juice in the house? Pour hot coffee on your lap and you'll forget your own name, let alone how hot you are!

You're welcome!

I prefer hot tea over hot coffee. If there was coffee around, I'll take it but I'll be like "Man, I wish I had hot tea". And sometimes coffee is just plain disgusting.

I generally drink water, juice, Kool-Aid (I know, I know) or pop when I'm at school, but when I go home for breaks I'll drink coffee, but only because the place where I work has the best coffee EVER. If you're ever in the Pittsburgh/Western PA area, I reccommend stopping at an Eat n' Park and getting a cup of coffee. It's the best I've ever had.

This is all dependent, of course, on the fact that you drink regular coffee, not the flavored swill or the cappaccino or whatever else you can get at the trendy over-priced coffee places. Give me real coffee (and a few sugars) any day.

I don't even like coffee ice cream. I prefer iced tea, but will drink it hot on a very cold day, or if I'm not feeling well. Mostly I just drink water.

I can't stand either. The very smell of coffee makes my stomach cramp. Tea isn't quite so bad, but I don't like it either. For hot drinks I go for hot cocoa, and for caffeine, its coca-cola all the way.

Nothing like a hot cup of Earl Grey in the morning with cream and sugar to start the day's journey on the right foot! :)

Hey, to those who drink coffee, has anyone liked the powdered creamer more than the liquid one?? How many packets of sugar do you use? How do you like your coffee?

Coffee over tea; coke over coffee. Though nothing will wake you like a doulbe espresso. :D

er....I like both....but I only drink my coffee(me no like decaf) if it has lots of sugar in it, or with vanilla creamer(I like powdered better), and I must like tea b/c I drink it just about every single day at lunch. :)

I would do that, except that I don't like coffee! =\ We always go to Eat n' Park when we're up in Pittsburgh. Believe me, I'm always up there... :D I think last summer I stayed up there for three weeks. ^_^

Ice Tea with lemon is simply the best!

When I'm home, I'm probably there more than I'm at home. :( They like to work their seasonal people like slaves. But, I have to admit it's not one of the worst restaurant chains in the world (on the contrary, voted the 3rd best family restaurant chain in the country; not bad for a OH/PA/WV eatery).

And to answer the creamer question, I say cream is bad for you. I think milk would be better, but ewwww. About 4 packets (I remember the days of sugar dispensers, in fact, I stole one from work right before we made the changeover to packets) of sugar.

Yes, but there are some of us who can't "just say no" to coffee. Even though we know it's bad for us, even though we know it's an evil mistress that will ultimately destory us, it's also the only thing that keeps our nerves steady enough to keep from going into work and choking the ---- out of some ------- who desparately needs it! :mad:

Coffee is just plain nasty. It has a vile taste, and nothing can fix it, not even sugar *GASP!* Tea on the other hand tastes perfect, but sugar makes it that much better.

Tea for me. I'm trying to wean myself of caffine from soda, and if you know anything on coffee, it's not exactly smart for me to just drink it...:P

...besides, I've tasted tea. It's very soothing to the body aftera long day. Put me down as a tealover. :)

Whenever I drink hot tea, it feels like it's saying "Hi, thanks for dropping by. Take all you want". Hot tea is so refreshing.

Wow!! I was totally wrong! I thought coffee would win for sure, but surprisingly, tea is! I didn't know there were so many tea lovers around. Well, I've learned my lesson- I shall never underestimate tea again. :p

I like them both. It justs depends on which one I'm in the mood for.
