Coffee
Time for something just a bit random - who needs their caffeine fix every day, who doesn't? Personally, I need it.
|
I am a WAY serious caffeine junkie! If it's not coffee, it's diet energy drinks. You do NOT want to every be around me when I haven't had my "fix", trust me! I love coffee, though-I wish they made "Fresh-Brewed Coffee"-scented little thingies to hang from your rear-view mirror in the car, like those little pine trees and that "New Car Smell" thingie!

For me, I need a bit of a caffeine boost. I have a tough time going through a day without it. :P
|
Coffee? Irish please.
|
it starts me off right lol i started drinking coffe when i was in 6th grade [could be why im so short] i like lots of milk in mine, cream jus tastes funny
|
When I really need caffeine, its soda that I turn to. I am a big coffee fan though, and am really picky when it comes to it. I won't drink just any coffee, and prefer to make my own. I also like espresso with water (Americanos), quite different from regular coffee but very good. (My regular drink at Starbucks is a "Venti iced Americano with sugarfree hazelnut and no room" with two packets of Sweet n Low and just a splash of half and half.) I used to have a massive collection of those flavored syrups, but now only have a modest few in a winerack in my kitchen. I largely prefer my coffee iced, as it can be drunk faster. ;)

i can't stand coffee, sorry. the smell, taste, it's all just disgusting to me.
|
It's not really my cup of tea.

This is a coffee thread :P 8D Anyways, I can't drink it. It smells good. |
i love the smell and the taste of really strong black coffee in the morning or at night. Its like mouthwash, if it offends your senses that badly, it has to be working.
|
I love coffee but I can't drink it after 4pm, otherwise it'd keep me up at night :(
I like Peet's coffee the best, especially their mocha. I think they use much better cocoa powder in it compare to others. As much as I like it, on average I only have a cup once every two weeks. |
Juice Solidarity!
It's odd, but for some reason I just don't drink any of the drinks that adults are supposed to like; I don't do tea, I don't do coffee, and I definitely don't do alcohol. As a non-tea-drinking Englishman and a non-coffee and non-alcohol-drinking student, you can imagine that puts me in a rather unusual bracket. :P Frankly, it bemuses me when I hear my friends talking about tea like it's the nectar of the gods, or waxing lyrical about the different beer and wine drinking experiences they've had; I always just sit there wondering if the muck I've tasted is somehow different to what everyone else is having. :P Give me a carton of fresh orange juice any day.

My friend, i am firmly of the belief that a properly prepared spot of English Tea is the Nectar of the Gods.
And alcohol = happiness |
i prefer soda. or cappichuino.(and i know i spelled that wrong)

The tea thing baffles me, though! As you might know, I'm studying in China at the mo, which means my buddies and I are missing a lot of Western home comforts, and I know English tea tops the list for a lot of people; one of my friends was actually moved to tears by a cup of English tea he got in a restaurant. :wiltshock: I just can't get my head around this; from all of my experiences drinking tea, it's a fairly bland drink that tastes like leaves in water, which is what it is. :P What is it that people get so excited about? To me it seems like becoming obsessed with white bread, or James Blunt. :P |
Oh man, I make no exaggeration when I say that coffee (and occasionally Lucozade) is my lifeblood. On an average day I can drink six to seven cups of coffee, and don't get me started on the continuous flow I have going whenever I have any instensive work periods on (I've just come out of one right now, and I'm still feeling the side-effects). It must be very bad for me somehow, but then I don't smoke or drink alcohol, so I hope that compensates. I can agree with you on that one Ditchy, since I'm one of about two tee-totalling students I've ever encountered in my lifetime.
Alcohol = the nector of the nitwit (sorry, PM ;) ) I'm the only true-blue caffeine junkie amongst my social circle - most of my friends have converted to the cult of the tea leaf, and they think they're so superior for it. :P That said, I AM actually trying to cut down on my coffee intake and have a few herbal teas now and then, though nothing too elaborate. Twinnings do some palatable herbal teas, but most of the stuff my friends are into always leaves a nasty taste in my mouth. The only thing I hate about coffee is that it goes cold very quickly. And then it's far from good. |
Yes, I like coffee. No, I don't drink it everyday, so I picked 'I'll survive'.
And alcohol is made of 'fail adn aids' in my opinion. |

Well, i dunno who makes your teas, but good English tea soothes and calms me, a Green tea helps me feel better, and coffee (ALWAYS black, no pansy cream and sugar) is great when i need to stay awake. Green Tea is horrible to drink because it tastes like fermented mold. Earl Grey is good.
As for alcohol, it has a rich and elaborate history stretching back thousands and thousands of years. The Egyptians brewed a strong beer that was basically "bread in a glass" because it actually sustained you because of the calorie content. The average Roman drank upwards of 1 bottle of wine a day, i believe, and theirs was much stronger than our wines. I find red and white wines to be very good as far as taste, beer i think is more hit or miss (depends on the brand, Heinekan yes, Molson no). "Harder" alcohols are quite good, in moderation. Grand Marnier is good straight, but very expensive and rather sugary in taste. Vodka is your basic cheap booze, and it can be mixed with just about anything you want to make it taste better (cranberry juice), although it isn't too bad straight. Alcohol is non addictive so long as you posses the levelheadedness not to drink massive amounts of it, and it is a good social drink as well as an "unwinding" drink. |
I LOVE COFFEE. I drink lots and lots and lots and lots of coffee. With too much sugar for mortal man. It's probably not healthy to have as much caffiene as I do.
Tea tastes like if you heated up the contents of a spittoon. Alcohol is fantastical. |

I do enjoy some teas. But I'm not "Like, this is so the necter of the gods!!!"~ okay I had t say that. And coffee, it's really hard fo me to like homemade coffee, like from the faucet, I hate faucet water coffee! Coffee from the machine can be pretty good with cream and milk mostly. But I looooooove coffee from Speedway! But I don't have to have any coffee in the mornings when I get up. If don't have a decent night's sleep and some kind of breakfast in the morning then I'm screwed. I'm more of a juice kind of a person though.

i will drink coffee at some places. i drink diet pepsi endlessly every day. i do like a chai latte from starbucks though!
|
I love cappicino the most, since I grew up around it. One of my first words was cappicino. =P
