I used to love coffee but it gives me mad shits now. Have to stick with tea
apparently Green tea is the one!
Having just spent a year and two months in China where they drink
this all day every day I can confidently say...

...it's just coloured water that does nothing more than keep
you dehydrated ;-)
Utter bullshit.

Haven't ever had roobios with ginseng in it, I'll have to give a a check. Vanilla roobios is delicious.

I drink coffee maybe 5 times a week. Not for the taste, for the caffeine. I used to take no doz caffeine pills but if you think coffee gives you stomach cramps....

Just put like 4 spoonfuls of sugar in it and it will taste pretty damn good imo. No cream tho.

I like good coffee. Probably drink more tea overall

Made the mistake of drinking loads of coffee while staying up to write my entire dissertation in three days thinking it would keep me up. I just got really angry panicky and barely able to read at about 1am the night before it had to be in. Actually went to a pub and had some pints. Went back to write it after the pints and could just breeze through it

Black iced coffee with a shot of espresso makes the 7am shift at work doable.

The more bitter the more better.

Does Turkish coffee taste like Greek coffee? I know they're made the same way

I find the buzz from coffee to be a bit uncomfortable, a strong cup has made me puke before.
Used to drink tea all the time tho. passionflower + weed is a great relaxing euphoric high.

^Freshly brewed hot tea has made me puke a few times before, but probably only because I drank too much and/or ate too much with it.

I love both coffee and tea. Coffee became very habitual for me last semester, but I've cooled off of it now and don't drink it very often. And I would only have however much my parents left in the pot after they left in the morning. I've had to brew more myself now with my grandma living with us. She's one of those straight, black coffee, 4 cups a day fiends. lol

I always see these at the grocery store and want to try them, but the ones I've tried have such a weird/bad taste

I read an interesting fact the other day about non-organic tea leaves:
Unlike other products, such as fruits and vegetables, a tea leaf is never washed. In fact, the first time tea leaves touch water is when they are brewed moments before the tea is drunk. That means that pesticides - if they were used in the growing process - are likely to end up in your beverage, and ultimately in your body.

It's a known fact the british and american have crap coffee. My family cares a lot about it, so they got one of those fancy coffee machines. I drink a good three cups of it a day, it's brilliant.

McDonalds coffee is much nicer and costs a fraction of the price

America yes, but unless you're talking about freeze dried instant, the coffee here is largely similar to the rest of Europe
