Coffee or tea? I met people who only goes for tea and there are those who only go for coffee? How about you? What would you prefer? I myself is a coffee man, I love the taste of different coffee and the smell of the coffee! They are those who like tea for the same reason! How about you?

Beverage - Tea is a life giver and that is how I feel about it!
The place where I come from coffee is our mainstay and I was brought up drinking coffee but when I was being treated by a homoeopapthic doctor he stopped me from drinking coffee. Tea is what I drink now and I cannot live without it. My bed tea is something that kees me going and then tea at breakfast and a cup in the afternoon. I am very choosey about tea. We used to have Lopchu which is now not available and we have now settled for Brook Bond Taj.

I actually prefer leaf tea which is not available these days so I settle for granules but without addition of any herbs.

That is interesting to know how you differ your tea at different time of the day! But then could you actually go to bed after drinking tea?

I was brought up drinking coffee too! My grandfather sells coffee and he made his own coffee! He made the type that is very close to the South-East Asian coffee! What tea do u usually favored over? Green? Black? Red? Or just plain? I sometimes will choose green tea over my beloved coffee...!

I actually love both - but currently do not drink either because of the caffeine content (I have a newborn and well, I'm nursing . . . I don't need the baby to have any of the caffeine!). I will say I've gotten addicted to coffee at different times in my life, more than tea. Coffee has a stronger taste and smell, but teas are milder and soothing.

Thank you for the congrats! Did you actually drink coffee as a child? I always loved the smell of it as a kid, even though I wasn't supposed to drink it. I would sneak in a sip when my dad had me make instant coffee for him - ha ha. Maybe that's why I'm short now - ha ha.

Congrat on your new born! Coffee gives me a lot of memory...i've addicted to coffee and different coffee too at different time in my life....though i can't stay i lived that long to have that much of memory, but each coffee kind of represent different part of my live, from as a child to during the college! from thick milk coffee to plain brew coffee!

I love both, but they both have their time. It's late, I'm drinking tea. In the morning, mid-afternoon and early evening, it's coffee. Unless I'm not feeling well, in which case I go for tea. I love the taste of both and I love how both can just warm you all over.

green tea - for a good health
Hello, Px. I'm opposite to you. I don't like the odor of coffee..it gives me headache. I feel dizzy every time i smell it. I prefer drinking tea because of its health benefits, it's odorless and sometimes tasteless. When i drink tea before meal it gives me good appetite and feel cleansed after. Though i recently liked tea.
