Coffee. Black. No sugar. And strong enough to require eating with a spoon. :)

Tea or coffee? Yes.

Coffee with cream and sugar, and usually oolong or green tea straight. Barley tea is good too.

Tea.

Earl Grey with 1 tsp sugar.

Never liked the taste of coffee. Too bitter. The smell is nice, though.

"Earl Grey.  Hot."

For me, Chai spice with two Splenda packets and a splash of 2% milk.

I mostly drink coffee, black with a little sugar. However there are times I like hot green tea with some lemon and honey as sweetener. Just depends.

Ronnie, to a wonderful friend, who deserves only the best, I recently recommended whole bean Tanzanian Peaberry coffee, grown on the slopes of Mount Kilimanjaro.  It's true!!

I don't really have a favorite green tea yet. Ten-ren, Yamamotoyama, and Trader Joes are all good. Barley tea is a little harder to find, and there's usually only one brand at the Japanese market near my home.

EDIT: The brand of barley tea I currently have is House Foods.

I have my own coffee grinder so I buy either French or Italian whole bean dark roast and add just a dollop of cream to each cup

As for tea I use an herbal blend that includes green tea and add a teaspoon of honey and lemon juice

Both actually. Coffee I prefer espresso, but in a regular cup full to the brim or just a regular dark roast but strong and black.

Tea, definitely Chai the traditional way or close to it with a lot of milk and sweet. Second choice would be a bit of Earl.

Although i didn't drink any in a long time , i would say tea .
I never liked coffee , in fact i only drank some in my childhood , and i didn't like the taste . Never felt the need to try it again  :D

I love my Earl Grey, and Lady Grey tea.

Sometimes I have Chai, as well, but for me coffee is something I go out and get at Starbucks or a local Cafe not something I make at home anymore (I lost my espresso machine in storage).

Overall I would say I drink probably 10 times as much tea as coffee. In fact the tea kettle is my most used Kitchen implement by far.

  Tea.  I never drank coffee.  I don't have the expense of getting my drinks from a Barista nor bartender for that matter.  I have the usual black tea, but I do have some of the other varieties such as the Chais, spearmint and others.

Tea for me-I could really use some right now.

I'm not really fond of coffee.
