Just putting this in just because that's what has just popped into my head. :D
But seriously, what is everyone's favorite coffee or tea?
My favorite coffee is any type of French Roast and my favorite tea is Earl Grey.
-
English Breakfast. I don't like coffee at all.
-
I like normal plain black tea ...
-
I like the taste of coffee, but it bothers my stomach so I never drink it. But use it as flavoring in something else and I'll eat it up.
I also became a fan of tea in college, thanks to one roommate of mine. I like a wide variety of teas. One of my favorites is peppermint. Others that I'm a fan of are this chocolate-hazelnut black tea that I have, lemon-ginger, chai, various fruit-flavored teas, and earl grey.
For Christmas, my sister got me some loose-leaf teas and an infuser. I'm rather enjoying the freshness of the loose-leaf stuff vs. the individually packaged stuff.
-
@Ziel: You should take a look at "The Republic of Tea" there a tea store with a lot of different types, including loose leaf I believe.
-
Oh man, I have drank significantly less coffee lately though. Gotta tell you, It feels so much better to drink tea. My Keurig is my best friend though for hot chocolate. Peppermint hot chocolate will do any day. :D I do use loose leaf stuff too all the time in the way of tea. I like so many different kinds of tea though...I should have explained that. :)

I'll have to check that out. Gotta finish my few varieties of loose-leaf that I already have first, though.
We also have a Teavana store in the mall just down the road from me, so I might have to wander over there and see what all they have.

I also love tea! Yay for tea!
When I took a trip to China two years ago I had the most delightful experiences in teahouses and bought a ton of Chinese black, green and jasmine teas. Pu-er tea is meh, kind of...fishy flavored? Hard to explain. I also love fruit tea (with loose dried fruit), rose petal tea, and chai tea. I tend to prefer black tea over green tea. I love tea in the mornings with a touch of sugar, either packeted or in honey, with a bit of milk to go with it. (:
My mate and I adore Thai Iced Tea. (:
As far as places to get tea go, I find that I enjoy The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf brand in the U.S. over Starbucks' Tazo brand.
Coffee is not for me...love the smell of roasted coffee, but my poor stomach hates me whenever I drink it. :(
-
Lipton Citrus Green Tea
-
Has anyone ever tried gunpowder tea? it's supposedly super strong and uses a whole tea leaves
-
^^ OMG yes! I have had that before. I absolutely loved it! :D My English friend gave me some actually. I'm sure you can get it in several other places, but that was sweet of her to send me some from her home in London. (:
-
I like mint, sleepy time, and red teas. I also like coffee, but it needs sugar and milk. We actually have some gunpowder tea at my house, and it has the caffine equivallent of a caffine pill and a can of mountain dew.
-
HAHAHA! It's so true 'bout gunpowder. I haven't finished the whole tin of it yet. I use it when I'm like falling asleep at my computer every so often. :-[
But yeah Sleepy time is good. I like Red Rooibos. I like most of the herbal teas and the fruity ones. My hot beverages are special to me! :D
-
Vanilla chai, Earl Grey, and Constant Comment are definitely my top three kinds of tea... any kind of black tea is good for the most part though.
Green tea is kind of dope to, come to think of it... haha.
-
I just made myself some chai tea from my keurig. It's was awesome. But yeah, Earl grey is most of what I drink. I like so many kinds...man I sound repetitive. :-[
-
We Brits have a terrible habit of spoiling tea with milk. And sugar. And then dipping food in it. :P Gah. I like any sort of tea; I'll try anything. And I take it black...
... like my men.*

-
^^ That last part was actually pretty funny.
-
Tea: Various Japanese green especially tea with roasted Rice.
Coffee: any dark roast whole bean will work for me
-
When it comes to cofee, nothing beats Hazelnut coffee. I also enjoy the classic brown tea with honey and sugar by loadsfuls.
-
At least one member of this forum can personally attest to my coffee addiction (along with my wanton disregard for creamer :D ) Hazel nut is a particular favorite, but anything with caffeine will do in a pinch.
For tea, I mostly drink sweet iced tea. McDonald's when it's half sweet, half unsweetened is usually about my speed, but if I'm making it my self, I like a two to one mix of Luziane Black and Green teas. As for Hot tea, though I don't drink it often, I'm partial to Celestial Seasonings Honey Lemon Ginseng green, with a couple of packets of Korean ginseng tea mixed in for extra kick.
-
Tea with golden syrup
YUM!!!!!!!1
-
Sweet Tea, or any type of coffee with LOTS of creamer
-
My favorite tea is Lady Grey -- it's like Earl Grey, but there are a few more subtle flavors going on in it. Though, of course, I also like Earl Grey, and I like to keep a variety of herbal teas around: raspberry, mint, lemon, peach, licorice spice, etc. I especially like the herbal teas that combine several flavors so there's a certain complexity to the taste -- teas like Christmas Eve or Sandman are a good example of that. Licorice spice is nice because it's naturally sweet.
Many years ago, I recall having almond tea with my husband's grandmother. It was absolutely lovely, but I haven't been able to find it since then. Another wonderful tea that I don't have easy access to is called "rhubarb cream" -- my brother-in-law sent us some of that in loose leaf form for Christmas last year.
You know, I really ought to check out a local tea shop and see if I can get myself some of these more unusual, higher quality teas there...
-
Camomile tea....I don't think I spelled that right. And I love Coffee. XD I'll drink different kinds.
-
Coffee. I think that encompasses all the kinds of coffee I like. And I have become almost addicted to celestial brand teas. Most flavors. (:
-
black coffee is for the real coffee fans
-
I love tea but I also love the smell of coffee. For teas I'd say vanilla chai and ginger tea. For coffee I love mocha cappuccino.
-
Any coffee. Any flavor. No tea.
Coffee always either black or with too much sugar, creamer, etc.

I'm with you on that. One extreme or the other. Nothing in between.

Tea/Chi (love it) coffee/ almost any
-
Tea is kind of one of my weird obsessions in life. I try to source it as directly as possible from their growing regions, as soon after harvest as I can. It's always loose-leaf and takes sometimes a month to ship due to most of it coming from the other side of the world, but it's worth it. I brew it up traditionally; usually in tiny covered cups, and often keep detailed notes on the tasting experience.
I guess it comes off as borderline silly, but eh, I just treat tea-tasting as some people treat wine-tasting. Everyone needs a hobby, heh.
-
I love peace tea razzlebery flavor and my grandpa tried some expresso at a german airport he said just black and he said it looked lke tar :P
-
I drink all sorts of teas! Most commonly English Breakfast though. I want to get more into using loose leaf
-
Dirty Chai, it is a chai latte with a shot of espresso. It will keep you awake.
-
Nettle tea and Wheat coffee :goldglee:
