Are you a coffee drinker or a tea drinker? Why?

Coffee. I love drinking it and smelling the aroma in the morning. But most important, coffee is a social thing for me.

I love making 'coffee dates' with my friends so I can sit around and catch up on current events. There's nothing better than a latte, a friend, and some stories to tell.

Definitly tea: several flavours and I believe more healthy (if not black tea) I like the smell of coffee, but I don't like the taste.

I love both! Although my husband thinks I am silly I put way too much sugar in both =-P so I guess the correct answer would be sugar :).

I am a coffee drinker because there is something very home like in a cup of coffee, a relaxed just a moments peace before you get the speedy rush..... good stuff!

I enjoy both. I used to only have tea, but I'm gradually starting to enjoy coffee more as well. I think tea is excellent throughout the day, and coffee is great for when you just want something strong and robust.

I have an interest in the the Civil War and later years in history, and years ago I came across a coffee brand still in existence. It's called Arbuckle's Coffee, and it has been around since 1865! It was the first coffee brand to pre-roast the beans and preserve them with sugar and egg whites.

They still package them in period-looking bags, too. And the most special feature is the peppermint candy they place in each one, which historically was enticement for a cowboy to grind the coffee! So if you want a "taste of history" (for lack of better terms) which tastes pretty good, try out some Arbuckle's Coffee.

Good stuff.

I am a tea drinker. The smell of coffee makes me feel weird although I do like white chocolate mocha form starbucks, If it has something in it then I can drink it.

Tea! Enough variety to wake you up, calm you down and heal your health. Can be used for soar throats, coughs and during colds and fevers (for example salvia tea).

On the other hand black tea / English breakfeast tea is great for mornings to wake up, other teas can calm you down before you go to sleep and well we all know the benefits if green tea. Besides the unknown side effects of coffee and addiction (?) I dislike the taste and I believe its less enjoyable than a tea. Atleast in Europe we don't drink 3dl of coffee but small cups for energy.

Coffee for a mourning kick start. Tea for relaxing/sick/bed.

Tea drinker - I'm Chinese, we like to drink tea with our dim sum. :).

That's a really tough one. I really enjoy drinking coffee for the dynamic flavor and the variety of different styles. Sitting by a fire, cool evening in the winter, good book... Picturesque but incomplete without a mug of coffee.

Tea on the other hand! How dandy! Tea is great hot or cold and being a southern lass, I gotta have a crisp, cool glass of Mama's ice tea.

Sweet, unsweet, earl grey, thai, I don't care. Tea is great, period. So if I had to choose between one or the other, I'd probably choose tea.

Lest the renegade southerns run me out of town for siding with the Yankees.

I like tea better. I think it tastes better - so many different flavors to choose from. Like @dabritt it's probably healthier for you.

Tea because it has anti-oxidant, making it much more healthier.

I prefer tea, because is healthier than coffee...I never drink coffee in my life ;).

Neither. I don't drink coffee or tea! I tend to drink water, milk, and fruit drinks.

I am a coffee drinker. I work at a fast paced job and tea for some reason tea does not give me the extra burst of energy that I need. I have tried them both and coffee wins hands down.

I drink coffee mostly but I do drink tea as well. Coffee is my go to beverage and I drink it all the time, tea is more of a treat or a remedy for me. The aroma of coffee in my house is comforting and the idea of tea makes me think of home and my mom.

Coffee for sure.. I love the way it can have a varied taste, and also enjoy the combination of aromas with the taste. The aroma and taste creates a flavorful experience.

I like tea better than coffee, but I drink only defac because the caffeine isn't good for me.

Tea defenetely! Not coffee its waaaaaaaaaaaay too strong for me! L8er!

I drink both. At home I drink tea more, and when I'm out I drink coffee more. Although I do drink coffee at home too, and tea out if I'm in the mood or I know the place does great tea.Reasons... - Raised as a tea-drinker - Easier and quicker to make a good cup of tea at home than good coffee - Harder to get great tea out, but easy to get great coffee out.

I grow my own coffee so that is a part of it. I like tea at night and especially in the winter, but in the morning I got to have my coffee. I just roasted some yesterday.

I´m a coffee drinker,and a heavy one in the autumn and winter. I like the fresh aroma from new-brew coffee. And this beverage helps my brain so it can work.

I am a tea drinker, can not stand coffee. In fact if tea is too strong, I do not like it either. I love all flavors of tea, but I am a tea snob in I do not like bottled teas, "fountain-mixed" teas (the ones you get out of the same dispenser as a soda) or even powdered teas.

I also do not like any type of sweeter but I do like lemon! I also like those Lipton cold brew tea bags as I can pop one in my glass and not worry about sun brewing or such...

Coffee & Tea drinker. Why? Caffeine first, flavor second.

And the choice depends on my mood. Simple answer, anything more than that from me, would mean I've over thought the question.

I'm definitely more of a tea drinker. I like tea for a variety of reasons, but the biggest is that it makes me feel better than coffee makes me feel. Coffee has too much caffeine for me, and it sometimes upsets my stomach.

I find tea to be much gentler, but I also like the greater variety that exists between green tea, black tea, oolong, and the many varieties of each. I even run a tea website, and have a page about switching from coffee to tea, which explains some of the reasons someone might prefer tea to coffee: ratetea.net/topic/switching-from-coffee-... But everyone is different: some people like the stronger boost that coffee gives, or just think that coffee tastes better.

It depends what time of day you are speaking of. In the morning, I have to have my coffee, but not just any coffee. It has to be a good strong cup of Columbian.

After two cups of that, I'm ready for my day. Then after I start drinking tea. Tea is a great alternative to soda because it still has the caffeine that we crave, but not as much.It is also a natural diuretic, while soda acts as the opposite of a diuretic due to it's sodium content.

Tea is much more refreshing than soda and actually hydrates the body, whereas soda does not. Also, carbonated beverages, such as soda, hinder calcium absorption, so sodas are really not good for you at all, but tea is a wonderful, cleansing agent, especially the lighter colored teas, such as green tea. Long live tea!

I like coffee because its reducing diseases risk. Coffee, the much maligned but undoubtedly beloved beverage, just made headlines for possibly cutting the risk of the latest disease epidemic, type 2 diabetes. And the real news seems to be that the more you drink, the better.

After analyzing data on 126,000 people for as long as 18 years, Harvard researchers calculate that compared with not partaking in America's favorite morning drink, downing one to three cups of caffeinated coffee daily can reduce diabetes risk by single digits. But having six cups or more each day slashed men's risk by 54% and women's by 30% over java avoiders. Though the scientists give the customary "more research is needed" before they recommend you do overtime at Starbuck's to specifically prevent diabetes, their findings are very similar to those in a less-publicized Dutch study.

And perhaps more importantly, it's the latest of hundreds of studies suggesting that coffee may be something of a health food -- especially in higher amounts. In recent decades, some 19,000 studies have been done examining coffee's impact on health. And for the most part, their results are as pleasing as a gulp of freshly brewed Breakfast Blend for the 108 million Americans who routinely enjoy this traditionally morning -- and increasingly daylong -- ritual.In practical terms, regular coffee drinkers include the majority of U.S. Adults and a growing number of children.

"Overall, the research shows that coffee is far more healthful than it is harmful," says Tomas DePaulis, PhD, research scientist at Vanderbilt University's Institute for Coffee Studies, which conducts its own medical research and tracks coffee studies from around the world. "For most people, very little bad comes from drinking it, but a lot of good." Consider this: At least six studies indicate that people who drink coffee on a regular basis are up to 80% less likely to develop Parkinson's, with three showing the more they drink, the lower the risk.

Other research shows that compared to not drinking coffee, at least two cups daily can translate to a 25% reduced risk of colon cancer, an 80% drop in liver cirrhosis risk, and nearly half the risk of gallstones. Coffee even offsets some of the damage caused by other vices, some research indicates."People who smoke and are heavy drinkers have less heart disease and liver damage when they regularly consume large amounts of coffee compared to those who don't," says DePaulis. There's also some evidence that coffee may help manage asthma and even control attacks when medication is unavailable, stop a headache, boost mood, and even prevent cavities.

Only tea and I'm from the South, so it better be sweet tea! :) I can't stand the taste of coffee but love the smell of most coffees. The only time I can drink coffee is if there is a lot of icecream and cool whip in it.

I do, however, like some frozen coffees - don't ask me why, I don't know.

Tea!. I love tea, green tea especially. There are many health benefits of green tea.

I try to limit my intake of coffee and tea due to the caffeine content. I drink decaffeinated tea when I'm ill. In my opinion coffee is great if you're having an extremely long day.

Even decaffeinated coffee makes me feel very shaky. I've noticed the caffeine in the teas that I've had is very subtle.

I drink both. In the morning, I'm a coffee drinker - no question about it. Strong, robust, black -- French roast if possible.

I have shared most of what I know about brewing coffee in How to Make Good Coffee, if you're interested. Why coffee? I don't know exactly-- it just gives me the kickstart I need to get going.

With lunch, I like How to Make Iced tea|iced tea - freshly brewed, no sugar added. I find unsweetened iced tea the most refreshing drink around, and drink it all year long. If I take a cookie break mid-afternoon I 'll have a cup of Earl Grey tea.

If dinner is followed by a chocolate dessert, I'll have coffee with it.

I am a tea drinker. I drink a cup of tea every morning or some time in evening. Actually I am tea addicted person its compulsory to me drink tea every day.

I enjoy both, but I'm much more of a coffee drinker. I think it's partly cultural, and that it's so easy to get coffee, while tea is a little less convenient.

I drink one black coffee in the morning. Sometimes I add 2 teaspoons of hot chocolate mix in it. It is a nice combination and good treat to get up in the morning.. During the day, I usually don't drink coffee or tea.In the evenings I like to have a cup of tea( added milk and sugar) and to have a nice chat if we have time to relax.

Usually after dinner, I would make a green tea and add some lemon and honey. It is very soothing and relaxing. Green tea is good with anti oxidants.

That is what they say. I love it anyway. I need my morning coffee to start the day.

It make me feel wide awake.

Although I drink both, I prefer to drink tea. I like tea more for a few reasons. First, I think that the flavor of tea is better.

Coffee tends to be very harsh, very bitter, and if I'm drinking it, I almost always require lots of cream and sugar. With tea, there is not the bitterness to me. And there are some nice sweet, floral, smoky, fragrant notes in tea that I don't always pick up on in coffee.

Second, I find that the caffeine in tea affects me different than the caffeine in coffee. I am super-sensitive to caffeine, and more than a cup a day will get me jittery and give me some, how to put this politely, "tummy troubles. " When I drink tea, these effects are much less noticeable for me.

Third, iced tea is so much better than iced coffee. I'll drink a lot of iced tea in the summer, with a little bit of lemon, sometimes sweetened. Iced coffee is nice, but you can't down a pitcher of it in a day.It's not nearly as thirst-quenching and refreshing as iced tea.

I prefer to take both because whether you take coffee or tea, both help to boost you. Green tea has been shown to have a role in the prevention of cancer, rheumatoid arthritis, cardiovascular disease, cataracts, and to help boost your immune system. But I take coffee in the morning and have tea in the afternoon or evenings, because I can't give up the aroma :P.

I think tea is healthier than coffee. So I go for tea!

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
