Jim's Cafe - Tuesday - August 13, 2024 - Coffee or Tea?

[Angie]

Hello SF lovelies!

You may wonder at the topics at the Cafe. I try and mix it up between lighthearted things like today's topic and the occasional "thinker" type topic. At the head of the Cafe's thread is this quote:

"Our warm, friendly cafe is the perfect place to get to know people. Drop in and say hello, tell a joke, share a song or let us know how your day is going. We can't wait to get to know you!"

Knowing others and connecting with others is essential to our mental health I believe and this a good place for that.

So, today:

Coffee
or
Tea
or
Caffeine is of the devil

Lets see what everyone thinks! And thank YOU for participating!

Hi Angie
My preference is coffee but I don't have it often.

 

[AmberMarie]

love the flavor options with tea...
i enjoy both coffee and tea...
however i will have to say that tea tops over coffee only by a slim margin for me.

Hi @Angie

I prefer coffee, I have at least 2 mugs every morning. I generally don't drink any more after that, but occasionally I'll have another mug, or sometimes a special iced coffee.
I like raspberry tea or sweet tea, but don't drink tea every day

I hope everyone has a great day

peace

I certainly hope it's not of the devil because I drink it about 3-5 times daily to avoid overeating.

Tea, lots of tea, can’t get on with coffee at all.
I was just looking into why the US is so coffee centric and it goes right back to the Boston tea party, tea was boycotted for being British after that and it just never really made it back.

I prefer tea any kind hot or cold. I don't like the taste of coffee and only have a cup on rare occasions with cream.and sugar.

I love them both. I drink tea a few times a week, but I drink coffee every day. Lately, I’ve had hot coffee in the morning, and iced coffee in the afternoon. I can’t drink a ton of coffee like I used to, but that’s probably not a bad thing.

I love sweet tea, raspberry flavored, peach flavored and green tea. Hot tea is okay sometimes.

I love my drinks 😂

I drink coffee more often, though usually it will be a flavored latte or something. I do like tea as well, but typically I like to try different kinds of teas instead of just plan black tea.

 

[JMG]

Thanks for opening the cafe Angie.
Cool theme. I only drink tea, never coffee cos it makes me nauseous.
I mostly drink green tea these days, usually have at least 2-3 cups per day. I also like chamomile tea.

Definitely tea, the typical Texas unsweetened iced tea. I never have cared much for hot drinks.

 

[Windhover]

Good black from loose leaf is what I prefer. Occasionally I swerve into drinking some coffee. But even if I have a coffee, I will always have at least a couple of cups of tea as well. I add milk to tea sometimes, light cream to coffee. No sugar in either - don't like how it tastes. Tea gives me a boost and yet seems to calm me too. I love it.

For ages it was coffee from morning till bed time.

For the past year, mostly tea.

 

[FFurry]

Tea (just chamomile is enough 😂)

 

[Kiwi2016]

I love coffee in the mornings...just starts my day even though retired. I love all the variety of tea flavors and when cooler like drinking cup of herbal before bed. Friend of mine just shared with me some Mauritius tea which is perhaps best tea I've ever had...

wishing all a great day!

 

[Ash600]

Coffee. Black. No sugar.
That's the type of rocket fuel that I need expecially to fire me up in the mornings.

I did use to drink tea on the odd occasion, but got fed up of people asking questions or raising their eyebrows when I insisted on having it without milk. Because to me, milk is udder's piss.

 

[snails]

Coffee but I like both and herbal
