    I love to have a cup or 2 or ... and I enjoy trying new flavors. I just joined a Tea Club and awaiting my second shipment in a week or so. Do you like it? Do you have a special blend or brand?

    I do like me tea, have at least 4 cups per day plus coffee
    Our favourite is Orange Pekoe, discovered when my Mother brought some back from Canada, difficult to obtain here (London)
    although I could probably obtain from the internet :)

    Very Nice Pasty. That sounds delicious! Right now I am trying a brand new blend from the tea club called Love AcTeally .. a blend of tea, flowers and such, it is very nice.

    I also like tea, mainly hot tea, not so much iced tea, although I will drink it in the heat of summer. My favorite variety is Earl Grey tea, and an interesting blend called Breakfast in Paris (by Stash), which is an Earl Grey with lavender added, which has an amazing aroma and flavor.
    I just got a set of about 6 flavors of Bigelow , including Constant Comment and Plantation Mint, which are also favorites of mine.

    Welcome to the forum. @Marie Jean !

    I am basically a coffee hound, but I do like the occasional cup of tea. Not an aficionado, but do like Earl Grey Breakfast Blend with lemon and honey. My mom was the big tea drinker in our family. Dad and us kids were coffee lovers.

    I used to be a coffee drinker. Black. I liked tea better, but only with sugar, and the calories would mount up, so I avoided it. Then I learned to drink it with artificial sweetener, and now I'm almost strictly a tea drinker. Love it. Nothing special though. Just Lipton tea.

    Grew up on ice teas- but do like a cup of hot tea when I am cold in the middle of the afternoon.

    Some mornings, I make coffee, and some mornings I have tea, it just depends on which one I feel like each day. Now that I have the wonderful variety of flavors, I am having tea more often.
    This morning, I am having a cup of Bigelow Constant Comment.

    It's hot coffee (in AM), bottled water or Bud Light in summer months. Actually, for both of us, it's a nice cup of coffee over hot tea anytime. But, do keep a 24-Pack of 8oz cans of Bud Light in the frig all year long.

    I like coffee sometimes. I sometimes make what became being called as "Coco-Fee" lol half coffee and half hot coco. Have made it for years! and many times I use a vanilla extract or bean if I have it in it too!.. As far as beer I have a from around the world collection in my small fridge at my small bar area! Yet I drink very little except socially.

    My wife loves hot chocolate with coffee in it. Puts some flavored cream in it and that can really give her an energy boost.

    If you have a beer collection, why not display it outside the frig.
