I personally prefer tea, especially in the morning. Lot of my friends prefer coffee. But tea is something that I've been used to always. Coffee doesn't refresh me as much as tea does. There are many ways that tea is made in India. Some add the tea(dust tea), milk and sugar all at one go and boil it all together. I like to have tea which is grown in a place called Darjeeling in India where I think the finest tea in the world comes from. These are tea leaves. After the water's boiled I switch it off and add the tea leaves and let it brew for about five to eight minutes. I pour it in a cup and add milk and sugar separately. Very English I guess, another legacy that the British left us. My husband's grown up in a tea-estate and he's very particular about the way the tea is brewed, for the exact number of minutes and the exact amount of tea-leaves to be used. But, he prefers coffee and he likes filter coffee not instant coffee.

I prefer drinking coffee in the morning when I take my breakfast. I do not mind tea, but I drink it at other times of the day,not in the morning. The aroma of the coffe really wakes me up in the morning:)

I prefer neither tea or coffee, instead I like taking a glass of milk.

I like coffee much more. But I don't drink it often because I am afraid I can't fall asleep easily at night.
