Coffee or tea?

Coffee mostly. Nice and strong. Tea once in a while. Herbals and Earl Grey.

 

Neon - Love, love, love the coffee bean owl!!!!
Spots - I agree...always stop at the gas station when it's cold outside...to get their delicious hot cocoa!!! The coffee filter idea is brilliant! I bought ginger & tumeric( it is supposed to be healing) to make tea with...but the granules escape through my regular tea thingy(can't think of the name). I'm going to try the coffee filter. How do you seal them????

I drink a pot of plain black tea a day. I brew it at night, with 6 tea bags(electric kettle)....so I can drink iced tea all the next day. I need the caffeine to stay awake! In winter, I drink it hot!

sanddollar - I too adore spiced apple cider. I used to drink it every time we went skiing.

 

(That's a tea infuser, I think, Brookeham.)

 

Brookeham, Warm spiced apple cider and a touch of real whipped cream on the top, It's like warm apple pie! yum!

 

That's it Noelle....thanks!
Oh yum...that does sound good sanddollar! Of course...my weather will need to cool off a bit. We hit 95 degrees today.

 

Brooke, I just fold the top in together in a little bunch, flatten it out, and staple it. Tea bags use staples (at least the ones I use do), so I figured it was safe, and I have a stapler I use just for that purpose. Just make sure you have the same amount of staples when you take it out as when you put it in. 95, ouch! We got almost to 80 today, which is funny, since last Saturday the high was about 36 and rainy . I am SO ready for fall, tired of heat and allergies.

I've never cared much for apple cider, but sanddollar's idea sounds so yummy I think I'll have to try it this winter. My husband likes cider, so I keep some of the powdered mix in sugar free variety in the cupboard, but maybe I should get some actual liquid cider, maybe I'll like that better? I do like apple pie, especially with a nice healthy dollop of vanilla ice cream .

 

oooh, spotbox, get some real apple cider heat some in a small pan with a cinnamon stick, a few cloves and a few raisins (if you have any) not really needed, lol . Keep it on low for 5 min or so then shut it off. You can serve it warm or chilled but warm is best And it makes your house smell wonderful Don't forget the whipped cream! ha ha and enjoy

 

Aha spots that's what I'm going to do! Thanks for the instructions!!!
Yes sanddollar, in the winter, especially if I have company over...I put a little cider in a pot and some cinnamon sticks and leave it on simmer....oooh makes the house smell wonderful(or like I've baked something delicious!). Ha....fooled them! LOL

 

I have become very fond of a convenience store near one of my stops.
Looking for a good cup of coffee I found instead that they have a cappuccino machine.
Traverse City Cherry has become my drink whenever I am in that area.

 

I'm a chai tea latte girl, but I do like normal milk with tea too. I used to drink a lot of coffee but can't stomach it since I turned a certain age!

 

Both not too picky about my coffee as long as it has light cream and sugar. Favorite tea, Tie Guan Yin with lemon, honey and a few red pepper flakes.

 

Hmmm...my mom used to make my stepfather's coffee with a sprinkle of cinnamon in the grounds, smelled good and he really liked it. When I worked in an office and was the first one in, I'd make coffee the same way for the office, and everyone seemed to enjoy it. I've never heard of using red pepper flakes in tea, tho. Does it add a little kick, or just flavor it a bit? I'm always open to try something new.

 

Add about half a pinch and it just gives a little extra warmth, you can barely taste the pepper, if at all. And if you're sick you add a little more and it'll help clear your sinuses

 

Yes, spotsbox, it was one of my grapevine thread. I mentioned a picture as cup of tea & Arielh said its a cup of coffee. Then I said I do not like coffee or tea. But milk, tender coconut water or sugarcane juice....something like that. Everyone started giving there opinion.

Neither coffee nor tea. I cannot make a great difference between each of them. Once in a while, now & then. Not regularly. Which ever is available I take it. Usually its tea because its the tea boy who comes and sells tea in our chambers.

 

Same as you 12ss12 I don't like either of them.
I am too young to drink coffee but I have tried and I didn't like it. I have tried tea as well but I didn't like it either...
