    how much coffee do you drink a day?

    Discussion in 'The Lounge' started by katina, Jul 17, 2018.

    I personally do not drink coffee.
    I drink tea. It is lighter on the palate.

    Day to day I have 1 morning cup, and usually another at night.

    If I want to stay up late I'll drink as much as it takes as long as I still feel tired: 2-4 cups.

    Black no sugar or anything, dark roast. If I'm with my wife I might do some cream and sugar- however she wants it- solo I go just coffee.

    Tea tastes like a glass of water that you realise had cordial in it previously. Not nice.

    I drink a fair bit of coffee. Probably four or five cups a day. I don't really find it has any stimulatory effect on me. I can and often do go straight to sleep after a cup of coffee, and it rarely makes me feel more energised in the day. Perhaps I have built up caffeine resistance? I don't know. I drink it just because I like the taste. Just a drop of milk and no sugar is how I like it.

    This coffee I have now is complimentary so it's instant, but it's warm. If I made it I would make a it fresh from a pot.

    I can write without, but some nights I just feel a little tired, or I want to stay up. @Dracon says he's resistant, but I'm not yet.

    Understood. It is the same with anything food or alcohol it is the taste that matters.
    I only drink tea and so I will have to disagree with cordial haha:cool::p

    I'm glad to hear that! I m also the same with alcohol too. That's why I dont like vodka much, and also why I pull my face at watering down rum and liqueurs with come or lemonade. If you're paying £15 a bottle or however much for the stuff, you may as well be able to taste it!

    I suppose the cordial comment was more geared towards the green teas and fruit teas. :) Still don't like black tea either.

    I know google you know it but it won't know what booze you are into.
    That was my question.
    What do you drink?

    Okay, I see. You asked "what is booze," but you really meant "what booze do you drink." My bad.

    I enjoy whiskey, wine, and beer. That's about it. Maybe some tequila every now and then, or a fruity rum drink if I'm at the beach or in the Caribbean, but really only whiskey, wine, and beer.

    Oh my, I really have no idea. I suspect that, like quantum particles, the number would change under observation (I think that's how science works?). Drinking a cup of coffee is a semiconscious act, like lighting a cigarette used to be.

    8 or 10 cups, easy, this on top of however many cups of tea, which may of may not contain caffeine. I usually have it black, sometimes with cream/milk and sugar for variety.

    Two cups of coffee in the morning. I might slip in a third one, but that’s on a rare occasion.

    I used to drink four cups a day, but I had to cut back due to (1) sleep issues and (2) a hole in my gut.

    One cup, in the morning. That's all. I'm very caffeine sensitive. I need it to wake up, but more than one cup, or later in the day, and I'll have difficulty sleeping that night.

    If we mean actual cup size, probably ten--a bunch in the morning and more in the evening. Used to do twice that amount--those were amazing times.

    Just right of center.
    One of those mixers would be a face-puller, all right.
