Tea says:
Tea is wonderful! There are so many different flavors, and it is not overpowering like coffee.

I have tried a lot of different teas. The simplest was pouring the hot water over an orange slice. I also like coffee-black

Tea is a must in different kinds like brown, green, Celyon, Fruit, Sleep, Throat etc

LazyKat says:
There's no "vs" for me, but if I had to choose I would probably go with tea: it is less bitter even when it's been sitting for awhile.

I've been sipping double cups of green tea throughout the day, every day, for years. But I do enjoy the taste of strong aromatic coffee once in a while. I've been working white tea and Rooibos into my routine, as well.

It's hard to choose...tea can't take the place of coffee first thing in the morning, but I have been a tea drinker longer and enjoy a cup any time of day (and you can't beat the variety when compared to coffee...sorry coffee)

Mostly flavored or need to at least have some lemon in mine. Coffee... VERY RARE

girlfriendfactory says:
To answer the question, I have chocolate milk in my cup...but to pick between coffee and tea, for me it's not even a choice: TEA! I can't stand coffee ~ not even the smell. I've hated it since I was 5 years old and I'm 42 now. I could care less what's healthier because it comes down to taste. I don't drink much tea, some days more than others. I like it hot, cold, with milk and without, herbal, regular, decaffeinated, plain, flavored, with lemon, with mint, whatever...I'm not picky...I really like it with a nice shortbread cookie or toast to dip in it. :D

Tea wins hands down for me, but I do love a quality filter coffee on ocassion. However, I really hate instant coffee. Necafe' tastes like cardboard to me.

vinodkpillai says:
It is tea - for the health benefits, "feel good" and taste but occasionally I also indulge in a hot cup of home made "filter coffee".

Do I really have to choose? OK, coffee then, because I have countless cups a day. Tea is a delicate ritual reserved for special times.

I have coffee's in the morning to get me going, and tea in the afternoon to calm down - I know it is all caffeinated though. I do love a bit of both, and couldn't easily give up either. Security word was "Gigglepea" - hehee.
Posted February 08, 2012
EdwardJames81 says:
Dificult one this - coffee first thing in th morning and before bed but tea during the day. Overall I would say that coffee gets it, but only because there are way more varities of coffee than tea.

SarahHappens says:
Coffee, all the way. Tea is just too weak for me. Besides, coffee with cream and sugar tastes more like chocolate than tea to me.

I like both, but for morning it has to be coffee. The stronger the better.

TrevorLedford says:
Mostly coffee in the morning and tea at night. I LOVE both, but if I were pressed to choose just one I would have to say coffee wins by a slight margin.

I love coffee(1-2 cups) in the morning! When I eat at a restaurant, I drink tea! I keep both at home,but mostly, I drink water!

adrianaheep says:
I love both, but I think I prefer coffee for the taste. Tea is healthy and helps relaxes me. Coffee actually has no effect on my energy level... lol. No caffeine seems to. It might be because I used to drink like two pots of coffee a day. Even after I cut back on the caffeine immensely, when I do allow myself coffee or a soda, I don't feel any burst of energy. Taste-wise, I go with coffee =]

Coffee in the morning, coffee (sometimes) mid-afternoon, and chamomile tea in the evening.

I love BOTH to death but after i went to starbucks...i started liking extremely sugary(all my drinks are sugary xD) tea to extremely sugary coffee! So...coffee for now but not dissing tea!

I choose coffee over tea. I understand the different kinds of coffees more than the different kinds of teas.

BlueTrane says:
I've tried and tried and tried. If it's iced tea...I'm ok. If it's hot tea with my Chinese food...I'm ok if I let it steep until the end of the meal. I can never get tea strong enough to be desirable. I take 4 shots in my cafe latte...if that gives you a clue to the intensity of flavor I demand. Slightly flavored warm water just doesn't do it for me.

It's coffee all the way today. There was a short period in my life when green tea filled the cup. I may go back but not today. Great job on the cha V Joe contest!

While I do love coffee most, I also enjoy tea. In my cup I rarely have any of them as I suspect them to be among my migraine triggers.

- I drink one or two cups of coffee a day as a change of page from tea. But I fear I've been sabotaging any health benefits by adding soy milk (which binds with the healthful stuff in coffee, limiting absorption).

- Good debate - coffee drinkers, have you tried high grade speciality (or specialty - if you are of the other side of the Atlantic to me) teas? I was pretty much converted from coffee and ordinary tea bags (Yorkshire Tea, Tetley Tea etc) but not completely!! A decent organic white tastes gorgeous whilst my favourite - lotus tea - has a fantastic floral taste and aroma. Yum!

I absolutely love green tea! I occasionally drink coffee, but I don't enjoy it all that much. Occasional cup of Earl Grey is great as well.
