JC's thread made me think

[AcdQueen89]

what's your preference and why? then, what flavors do you favor?

personally i go for a nice creamy chai. lately my brand has been oregon chai, the spiced one, half milk half water.

Tea is better because I said so, and this thread has my name in the title... instant authority!

[Sylvee Bee]

technically any vote for chai is also a vote for tea.

*nods*

Just tea with spices and a lot of milk.

mmmm - spices

I should make a pumpkin pie.

C-O-F-F-E-E.

I'll usually only drink tea when I've got a sore throat (mixed with honey). I'm just too used to coffee's strong kick.

[The Outrider]

Think! I try not to! But you're young. Think all you want!

[Sweetpea]

definitely Tea

the British Empire was built on cups of tea and its also been proven to be the Elixir of Life

there's nothing that can't be solved over a cup of lovely strong milky tea..mmmmm......tea.....

while i do appreciate coffee, it doesn't have the same soothing qualities as tea

TEA

My current view is this : Coffee in the morning, tea at night.

I know tea has caffeine but it makes me sleepy for some reason. Any tea aficionados know why?

What type of tea do you drink?

I'm an Earl Grey or Gunpowder Green Tea myself, never had a problem falling asleep.

[Solwyn]

Well what I'm saying is that any form of tea makes me sleepy, while coffee wakes me up. I'm sure there's a chance of it being psychosomatic but I'm curious if there's a chemical reason or if other people feel the same way.

I usually drink varieties of mint or green tea. There was a mix we got in Seattle called the Emerald Blend, variety of mint teas, really good.

But yeah, dunno what it is. I like them both but for different reasons and at different times of the day.

Coffee tends to make me sleepy, coffee gives me a migrane though and if I have too much the first symptom is feeling sleepy.

Tea doesn't make me sleepy which is odd because I remember reading that tea contains more caffeine than coffee.

On the whole I enjoy both but Coffee is a rare treat.

[BlueCross]

I like tea but I drink coffee.

(that just doesn't sound as profound as I was hoping)

[Doombot]

I like being wired.

Also... I'm an American. We throw our tea into the harbor. It's just part of us.

Nope. Although a strong tea will overlap with a weak coffee in caffeine content, overall coffee wins hands down.
