      I sometimes get together with a buddy of mine who imports raw coffee beans from Montenegro, and we'll roast them over a fire, grind them up real fine and make Turkish-style coffee. It's awesome.

      I drink both, and while I appreciate the good stuff (did a stint as a barista back in the day), I use the cheapest bucket/bag of dirt around for my daily brew.

      One note about coffee--longitudinal studies have found much lower instances of dementia in people who drink 4-5 cups per day.
      If you have a sense of caring for others, you will manifest a kind of inner strength in spite of your own difficulties and problems. With this strength, your own problems will seem less significant and bothersome to you. By going beyond your own problems and taking care of others, you gain inner strength, self-confidence, courage, and a greater sense of calm.Dalai Lama

      I dot like normal coffee either. I buy cold frapucinos though.
      If you see a strange typo in my post, blame my iPad for that.

      limit both because they are so addictive specially tea, I know many people who can't stay sharp without tea or coffee and they feel tired if they don't drink. because caffeine is so addictive...

      TEA ALL DAY, EVERYDAY. (but coffee, on occasion)
      I love green tea, Red Rose tea and iced tea.
      I like coffee and iced cappuccinos as well.

      I have reduced my coffee addiction to only one or two mugs a day, but am unable to let go of it entirely. I wish I could because I believe it makes me feel worse ultimately and addled my brain, but I am dependent on it in the morning. I should remember to never drink it in the afternoon at all. The other day I succumbed and had just half a small mug at 3pm, and it kept me up until midnight, two hours later than I wished.

      Tea on the other hand I am much in favor of, although my aforementioned limit of up to two mugs a day technically covers any caffeinated beverage, so I could drink one coffee and one caffeinated tea, but sometes I fudge with tea and drink more of it, and I don't think its effects on me are as negative, and got to love all those caffeine free herbal tea options! I love peppermint tea, roibos, all kinds of fruit teas (especially peach and blueberry recently). I used to not like chamomile, but have grown fond of it too recently. I also like green tea and black tea occasionally though. If only I could persuade myself to switch to tea entirely and skip the coffee.

      I actually grew up a tea only drinker, and was drinking lots of black tea as a teenager without any ill effects that I know of. I became a tea and coffee together drinker toward the end of college. Incidentally that was also the time I became a "not a morning person", which I now think was due to the coffee addiction not that coffee helps me in the mornings but that now I "need" it in the morning. Got to switch back to tea.

      Alas I am drinking my mug of morning coffee right now as I type this. I am such a coffee addict hypocrite.

      I love green tea and a cuppa
      I think it makes my teeth yellow a bit though.
