This is probably one of the most asked questions throughout the world everyday, whenever you go round somebody's and they offer you a hot drink, this question pops up. Well how do you take your coffee/tea?

I personally like to have my coffee strong preferably from a perculator but if granuals, like most people use here in England, it would need to be at least a spoon and a half. I have two sugars and depending on the coffee decide whether to add milk or not. I do not drink tea.

No coffee. Pure cafeine up the nose.







In the real world, coffee, sugar, loads of the former not so much of the latter.

I can't stand coffe tbh. I tried so many times by it fails to taste good to me.

I want my tea without any sort of milk, I didn't like it as a child and I still don't like it. With two spoons of sugar. I use to drink Earl Grey, I just can't get enough of that tea.

I really hate this "normal" tea that I see a lot. The only way I can drink that kind of tea is with little lemon and honey on it, with those two things... It tastes amazing and it's good when I got a cold or sick.

...usually I'm more of a microbrew & single malt guy.)

I am more of a microbrew & single malt guy myself.

You can wake me up for a great microbrew any time of the night.
Btw, went to the European Beer Festival 2008 at the Carlsberg Breweries in Copenhagen. I have to admit you Danish have some of the best microbrews around (last count was 90 breweries) and make great stouts and porters.
Last weekend I had probably one of the most extreme bitter beers ever. It was an American one called Hop 15 which consisted of 15 different sorts of hops and was 10% but somehow was incredibly refreshing.

If was a great festival wasn't it.

120 breweries at last count - not bad for a country with a population for 5 mil.
We have had a beer revolution these past 5-10 years - this is mostly over though and the market is struggling to find a normal level.

Hop 15 sounds interesting - I am a sucker for hoppy pale ales, think I will try to find a bottle.

I like Green Tea...usually by itself but sometimes, especially if I have a cold, with lemon and honey. I'll drink other tea but again with lemon and honey.

Coffee...not a big fan but I do drink it every once in a while. When I do...the more milk and sugar, the better.

I have a preferance for tea. So strong that it should be corroding the cup on its own. With just a little sugar.

I don't drink coffee, but with tea - either a bit of sugar or no sugar at all. Unless it's herbal tea as then honey would replace the sugar.

In reference to alcohol in coffee, I'm like it with whiskey or cognac (that just tastes amazing). An irish coffee is the treat, awesome.

I drink black tea, black coffee, and black espresso.

Coffee with cream/milk tastes gross to me, so I just drink it black. I put sugar in it sometimes too, but not that often.

Suuuuure... you really think we're going to believe it? You just want to be uubertrve. :k

3rd coffee to go, and still I have a lot of things to study tonight. I figured out that two teaspoons of sugar makes my coffee (~250ml) better than one - it's more energizing (yep, as far as I know that's exactly how it should be) and more... more tasty. However, it fucking kills the calcium I gained today (which already was like... minus 87mg as I just calculated ;o). Tomorrow I'll be unusable for sure.

What do you mean? What does black coffee have to do with that?

Besides it doesn't matter because I've been drinking it since before I started listening to metal anyways...

I have my coffee with 1.5-2 teaspoons of sugar and my tea with just the one. I can drink coffee without any sweetener, but I do prefer it with. My friend makes instant coffee with two teaspoons of the coffee and three of sugar. He's a mad man!

I like my coffee as I like my metal.... grindcore

lol ugh lame jokes at 2 AM at work :/

I've never had sugar in mine before ever. I either drink it black or with one mini moo

I can't really stand tea and don't get how people can like it, but sometimes I'll make chai tea at work just to smell it, and then throw the whole thing away when it gets cold lol

....and then I drink about three mini moos alone

I always take mine either intravenously or anally, I didn't know you could take the stuff orally as well.

I guess to everyone else it's just some quaint english tradition but "drinking" coffee is the norm here.

Hot milk, then? Or some hot chocolate?

I had some amaretto flavored tea today and it was nice. As always, and just like with coffee, I took it with 3 sugars and milk, and in it went.

I don't understand people who drink tea with milk. Gross.
But amaretto tea is fine - I have it here as well. I'm a bit disappointed about it because I thought it'll taste better... but oh, well, I guess I just have to drink the real amaretto.

Baz, so you're saying you're not British? All British people drink tea everyday, don't they? :<

Is not. :/ And that... how did you call it... emm... substance made from (other) plants' leaves (+boiled H2O) is good as well. Well, you HAVE to drink something healthy from time to time. You can't live just by drinking coffee (okay, I'm lying).
