Tea. I'm British, go figure...

I do enjoy a coffee though, but wouldn't drink 4 or 5 cups a day like I would tea.

To add, I love tea for many reasons. One of them being if I go to a tea shop and they make me one cup I don't have to pay for a second. I ask for hot water, give a tip, and all is well.

They make the tea bag on order, and their bags provide enough tea for a good and strong three cups.

I enjoy both.. at any time of day. I do prefer tea over coffee though. I enjoy herbal teas such as Chamomile :D

I've been using a french press recently. I was hesitant at first, thinking it was some snobby elitist way to make coffee. It still may be, I don't know. It does make a great cup of coffee though.

Maybe it's a bad thing because it has doubled my coffee habit.

All the way up to an absurd two cups daily.

Seriously though, it is a night and day difference. I don't think I could go back to a drip brew machine. I don't like to add tons of cream, flavoring, or sugar to my coffee, so it is important that it tastes like good coffee.

Maybe it's bad, but I've been drinking coffee since high school (six years now) and I think I live off of it. I have a Keurig brewer, and occasionally when dumpster diving I'll find some boxes of K-Cups that are either near expiration or just past it, so its a good way to experiment with different flavors on a budget.

My favorite by far is any and all Tim Horton's flavo(u)rs. When the snowbirds come down, a lot of local stores like to stock it, and I can see why you Canadians love it so much, it is absolutely incredibly. A bit strong, but so good.

Definitely tea for me. I'll drink most kinds of tea, but my favourite kinds are earl gray and various kinds of chai. I try not to drink too much in the day though, since I don't like tea without sugar (and milk if it's not a fruity tea). I don't put a lot in, but it still can add up if you're not careful ><;

Find some Harney & Sons loose leaf earl grey. The stuff is fantastic. The bergamot is strong in the nose but subtle on the tongue.
