    Coffee programme for the day as follows:
    07:00 - Black, French filtre if I've got up with the alarm, otherwise, no time.
    08:30 - Gluppy, 'white' coffee from machine outside the office, drunk at the run.
    13:00 - Turkish coffee, 'orta' (medium sugar), black of course, then turn cup upside down into saucer for friend to read my fortune from the dregs at the bottom of the cup.
    16:00 - More disgusting machine stuff, see 08:30.
    19:30 - After-supper filtre coffee, white this time, with 1-3 capfuls of cheap cognac in it if it's been a bad day.

    I drink Stash's chai tea, black, cold, nothing in it but the tea. I don't like hot tea or hot drinks in general. I just like nice black tea. Unfortunately, Wal-Mart keeps shoving the decaffeinated version into the regular version's slot and not restocking it. What's the point of drinking tea if it has no caffeine in it? :(

    Plus whenever I order iced tea in restaurants, I'm fairly certain most of it is decaf. Ugh.

    It's actually funny..

    Coffee for me by me:

    I brew grinded coffee beans in water, add 1 spoon sugar, no milk.

    Coffee for me by my mother:

    My Mom boils milk, add 2 spoons of sugar, 1 spoon nescafe.

    So we usually have a fight over which one I'm gonna drink, but guess who wins!


    Tea-

    Tea leaves, milk and sugar.

    lemon tea is quite good too.

    But the best tea was the one I drank in Egypt, it tasted more like juice and less like tea. It was yum...no idea what it was called, wish I knew.

    No milk for me either as I'm lactose intollerant. I find that sugar takes away the flavour of the coffee so none of that either thanks. Is it your treat? ;)

    very hot. 1 sweetener 2 coffee mate or creme.
    Tim Hortons is the best and they throw out what hasn't sold in 20 mins.
    nice to know it is fresh.
    I love there iced capachino during the summer.
    Tea I like fairly weak with nothing.
    used to drink any tea with lemon and sugar but allergic to citrus so no
    iced teas anymore.

    I'm a Starbucks freak. I drink Christmas Blend all year round. My first job was actually at Starbucks. :p

    I usually make my own mochas/specialty drinks, etc. etc.

    And I do love my espresso.

    I make most of my coffee from a bodum french press. And sometimes I take it black.
