What is your choice of hot drink between the two? A cup of tea or a cup of coffee?
I used to be big on drinking tea including herbals which was relaxing while reading a book or looking up about subjects in the I.T field for me.
But coffee? I drink it in the morning ready for my day and work search, keeps me upright that caffeine stuff but I don’t drink more than 2 cups due to caffeine contents.
I used to drink quite a lot of it in the workplace (Deadlines and projects tend to make you do that)
So what about you? Are you a tea enjoyer or a coffee enjoyer?
Coffee for me started as a utilitarian drink for extra focus in the early hours, and then I started liking it. Tea never really had a function for me, so I never got into it in the same way as I did with coffee.
Coffee in the morning, tea anytime after. Tea especially when it’s cold. Great taste, zero calories, zero guilt.
Tea (PG Tips Original) with milk and sugar.
I’m from a country that adores mint tea. I drink coffee.
I prefer flavored (not sweetened) iced tea and drink it almost daily. I absolutely love the smell of coffee grounds, but loathe the taste of coffee. To me it tastes like I imagine a burnt asshole tastes. …Let the downvotes commence…
I do love a coffee, but try to limit my intake for caffeine reasons. The flavour is lovely. I’ve got a few different ways of brewing it at home, but a cafetiere is probably my go-to. I will admit to being quite partial to a mug of milky decaf instant coffee in the evenings too, but that feels… a bit disconnected from coffee proper.
I am a total failure as a Brit in that I do not actually like black tea. Green tea, mint tea, mint green tea, and yerba mate are all great though. The black tea is in my cupboards solely for guests only
Tea all the way. I’m super sensitive to caffeine, so I even have to switch to decaf tea after noon or I’ll be up all night.
Love using herbs from my garden for tea in the evenings - lavender, lemon balm, peppermint, chamomile

Keep your hot bean soup, I will drink my boiled landscape baggings.
Coffee, black with too much sugar.
To me, tea always seemed like it was just hot water that’s unsuccessfully trying to taste like sticks and flowers.
Sounds like low quality tea. I’ve always enjoyed tea, but there are legit very large variations in quality of brewed tea from the same brand. One year it can be good, next quite bland. So this matters a lot.
I also have the privilege of being able to pick my own herbal teas, which never disappoint.
And I also enjoy some white/green/black teas as well.
Coffee. Usually black, but I sometimes grab a cappuccino.
I never liked tea.
I really like both. I have to have coffee in the morning so I guess if I had to pick one that would be it.
I love a good chai that will take my lunch money though
Coffee. Tea gives me a stomachache. I love the flavor of tea but I never have the willpower to stop steeping it after however many minutes you’re supposed to steep it
Interesting. I enjoy both coffee and tea, but I also take tea as a cure for a stomach ache.
Yeah tea with honey is the first thing I make when I wake up with a stomach ache.
Maybe removing the tea bag is essential? Idk haha
Tea, but no one mentioned the huge drawback that needs to be said.
Do not drink black tea on an empty stomach. It causes nauseation and you might throw up. I know I always do.
Herbal teas are safe tho
Wait really? Many days my only breakfast is black tea and never had an issue
Yeah some people are more sensitive - it’s the tannins that do it.
I’m fine if the tea has a splash of creamer or something, but straight black tea makes me puke lol
I also have this problem with tea but not coffee
This definitely sounds like OP might be sensitive to something in the tea
Yes not everyone gets this evidently! There’s a large subset of the population that is sickened by the tannins on the tea, but evidently y’all can just chug that shit and be fine? Wild.
I don’t think that is a general rule. Many people drink only black tea in the morning.
I prefer iced tea, but my honey makes me a coffee every morning when he makes his, so i drink it and enjoy it. I like a nice coffee or with dessert sometimes or occasionally an espresso in the afternoon. I like hot tea but don’t really enjoy it unless it’s cool out.
