2. I used to drink coffee all the time, and tea on occasion, but
now my stomach can't handle the coffee. I haven't had a cup since December...

4. I'm sorry....
What a sad state of affairs! Will you ever be able to drink it again? Do you still miss it or have you gotten over it?

6. Coffee really isn't my cup of tea...
...but then -- which tea are we speaking of? People make a "tea" out of everything! Wake up & smell the coffee!!

10. I used to....
drink coffee all the time ... it upset my stomach but what the heck, I love the stuff. then one day I forgot some coffee remains in the machine for a week , went out of town , came back , and despite all the mold infesting my maker I just rinsed it , prepared a cup , drank it..... let's just say I almost saw jesus that night!

Still scared of coffee to this day, that's why I limit myself to 2 cups a week ,and drink tea in between!

13. Tea
by now most of my family knows and when I visit them I get my tea. Coffee only if not avoidable. And sometimes a cappuccino

16. no question about iced tea
loved that when I was in the States. But hot tea is great also. I am about to pour me one. Jasmine tea. Yummy.

17. sun brewed tea, unsweetened, lots of ice
with a couple of lemon wedges. The best on a hot summer afternoon.

19. Both, coffe in the morning, tea in the afternoon
If I drink coffee later than about midday I find it impossible to get to sleep; on the other hand if I don't drink coffee in the mornings I find it impossible to get any work done.

Generally drink green-tea rather than black, but am happy with either.

Is your name a Wagner reference?

21. coffee in America, tea in England
maybe it's the water or the weather but tea tastes so much better in England

23. that's not it, tj
Edited on Thu Mar-10-05 07:42 AM by Skittles
because my mum's tea in Chicago is simply not as good as the stuff she makes in her homeland - same brand. Likewise, I can take American coffee to England and it won't taste as good. Maybe we just all have our niches! :D

LOL, my mum took a slight overdose of her insulin not long ago and the paramedics had to drink a cup of tea before they left her house; my brother said they were just tickled pink. My mum is Brit to the core! :D

26. coffee in the morning, tea on occasion in the afternoon
but if I am getting a virus or otherwise fighting an illness, I wake up with no appetite for coffee and crave tea!

I like strong fresh coffee, with good cream.
