Coffee Or Tea

Simple question which is the best and why?! I have to go with good old coffee kept me running during my uni days and still keeps me fighting strong while working. Plus it tastes better then tea >=)

Tea.

Tea is ok but I just don't find it strong enough at times.

Fair point, but can you dip biscuits in coffee without people pulling a face?

Tea does hold the upper hand in the biscuit dunking area of things also good for a hangover also.But coffee you can have in so many yummy ways =D plus irish coffee

Irish cofee <3

Woo extra vote for coffee XD, Irish coffee so nice on a really cold day aswell. Give that nice extra boost of warmth. Just had a funky tea :S was rather odd fruity tea me no like.

Screw coffee, tea all the way!

Tea of course. A nice refreshing cup of Earl Grey, no sugar, no milk but with a slice of lemon.

This is madness D= but early grey is nice I have to admit. fresh ground coffee though is heaven.

Tried coffee once, spat it right out. It's coffee that's madness I tell you!

Depends on the coffee and the tea. But generally I prefer coffee.

I dislike both.

Hot cocoa all teh way.

I say! T'would appear that I must teach Master Flumi the error of his coffee consuming ways! Perhaps one shall include a selection of absolutely delectable scones as he learns!

Tea all the way, bro. Lady Grey is a sure pleaser... Delicious.

Also the power of espresso to get you running around like a loon. Espresso is all powerful.

Fuck yes.

Kinda depends. But being the well-heeled English gentleman that I obviously am, then it's tea, properly made.

Actually, no. I drink tea black (never ever milk, unless I maybe make a hug pot of chai or something) without sugar. Lemon always with Earl Grey if available. Never "normal" black tea bags. More often some herbal stuff, or flavoured, or just good old green/gunpowder tea.

Coffee though, when done properly, is amazing. Black again. Strong enough to kill. No sugar (or half teaspoon of brown sugar or better yet honey).

The smell of coffee is superior to the smell of tea. In terms of smell it's up there with home-baked bread and bacon frying to be honest.

And pish to people if they mock dunking of any kind. The only obstacle to dunking is the type of biscuit, not the liquid. Chocolate is a no-no really for dunking. Digestive or Hob-Nobs rank highly. Maybe a ginger nut or garbaldi or Nice. You gotta appreciate the dunking ability of each biscuit though. Nice turn to mush very quickly.

Ahh, Hob-Nobs. A Legend among Biscuit-kind! Golden Creams are delicious with tea... But a few too many and they become sickly!

You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar!

I wish I had some Hobnobs .

Love this, early morning with this stunning smell with a full english is heaven.

How do you even eat that much food? :> I can survive on a bowl of Shreddies in the morning and one at night. xD

Full english breaky is lovely. Yum hash browns =D. with coffee!

Tea, mostly Earl Grey, can't go wrong with that. After long searching I have also found an apple tea that doesn't taste like the product of a chemical factory (synthetic taste D:) and the parents brought back an elderberry tea that wasn't bad either.

I really can't drink coffee, the taste doesn't suit me. The smell is tolerable.

Well I drink coffee usually only when I'm working A.K.A up on the Bridge at ten to four and the first thing you do is make a coffee that is two parts coffee, two parts sugar, three parts water and three parts milk then tank that shit right down.... Then make a cup of tea for casual sipping purposes
