Coffee/Tea Poll: US/Canada Edition

Coffee, a 16-ounce mug, every day. On days off I also have a big Mason jar that I brew 4 bags of Tetley in, with sugar and half&half. It’s my day-off treat.

Coffee only. I think tea tastes like dirt.

American that is tea only. Can’t be ancestry - the most recent import from the British region (specifically, Ireland) was in th 1860’s. I just like tea and dislike coffee.

Lots and lots of tea. I would only drink coffee if there wasn’t any chance of getting tea at all and I desperately needed a hot caffeinated beverage.

Where’s the hot cocoa choice?

3 cups of coffee in the morning. 1 tea after lunch and about 4 cups after dinner in the evening.
Earl gray is my favorite tea.

Tea. Coffee = migraine.

Caffeine choice, though, is Coke Zero.

I voted coffee exclusively. I only ever drink tea if I’m sick, and then it’s replacing beer, not my coffee.

Mostly tea.

A big mug of hot tea in the morning, either a mug of tea or a Coke Zero on my desk all day and iced tea when I get home. I drink coffee more on the weekends and when socializing sans alcohol in the evenings.

I used to drink coffee, but switched to tea a few years back. Part of my reason was that an unexpected mouthful of cold tea when I was expecting hot prompted an “Oh, my tea got cold” response, which was much better than the spewing that usually followed a mouthful of unexpectedly cold coffee.

Also, it’s much easier to make a single cup of tea than a single cup of coffee.

Coffee is my hot drink of choice, mostly out of habit. Tea is fine, but I’m just not “into” it.

What is this “tea” substance I keep hearing about?

2 to 3 cups of hearty, bold, rich coffee a day. The aroma alone slaughters tea.

But seriously, I like tea. Nice and hot when I’m sick (a bit of honey), or just want something to sip late at night (which is rare). Sweet iced tea in summer is gooooood.

But for my mandatory morning stimulate ritual, coffee… hands down. I’ve switched to half-caff though.

Coffee daily. I drink hot tea in the winter time, but only herbal.

::: disdainful snort :::

“Herbal tea” is not tea!

No, really, technically it’s a tisane. Only a tisane made from Camellia sinensis is actually tea.

I adore coffee, I just can’t deal with that much caffeine, so I drink tea instead =(

Decaf tastes like it was made using a dirty jock strap as the filter. We tried every single brand of decaf in the grocery store, as well as gevalia [who I love as a regular coffee, and indulge in a cup once a month or so when coffee just isnt doing it.]

Tea only. Canadian, half English, half Japanese. Tea drinkers on both sides.

Canadian. Coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee coffee.

I like coffee, I like tea. . .

Moving thread from IMHO to Cafe Society.

Tea nearly every day; coffee once or twice a week.
