Tea or Coffee?

[Shaun]

Yes, another silly debate, but hey, we can have fun debating can't we? I mean, arguing Ninjas and Pirates is really pointless and stupid, but it's fun! So, let's do this!

Which do you think is better? Tea or Coffee? (This means in any incarnation...so green tea, Earl Grey, Cappuccino, whatever!)

I personally like tea, green tea especially. Why? I just really hate the flavor of coffee. It's bitter and I feel that if I am forced to add flavorings to something it's not worth my time. I can drink tea straight and it makes me happy.

I drink coffee every other day on school days, 'cos it helps me concentrate. The taste is horrible, but I usually put milk and sugar in it to ease it's bitter taste. I'll drink tea on weekends, but I'd rather have hot chocolate than tea. I wouldn't drink coffee too much, though, 'cos I don't wanna drink too much caffeine.

[Rafael Domination]

Ah...I was wondering when this would come up...


Coffee-all out. It's just so much more veratile. You can also include its taste in relating foods like chocolate and it goes well with crispy grain products. Tea is a little more limited for me. No, different flowers put in the tea does not count.

But if you're talking about health, tea takes the lead.

[Shaun]

So you like coffee cause you can do more with it? Okay, but if we're just talking about it as a drink, which do you like better? Just as a drink. Straight coffee or straight tea?

[Dr_House_4ever]

Coffee, more coffee -- just inject it straight into my veins. But I can only drink it if I have some type of cream with it; black coffee is nasty. I don't dislike tea, though. (well, I do dislike green tea. Blech.)

[GeorgeMichael]

I hate coffee... It is vile, disgusting, and ... bleh.

I hate Tea too though... you know... I drink water... that's really it :)

[Rafael Domination]

Bubble tea? Hows that?

[Shaun]

What the heck is Bubble tea?

[Rafael Domination]

OOh! You should go to BC then.

It's hard to describe...but it's like tea and milk, but as a cold beverage. It's mixed so there is a perfect blend of creaminess, sweetness, richness, and texture. Not too much, and not too little. They put this kind of chewy rice spheres that you can suck through a straw, and they're sweet too. It comes in dozens of flavors, and its a heavenly drink. If you even want to try it, I recommend Taro.

But yeah, that's just the start of it. :D

[jordanisonfire]

Sounds good. If only they could do the same with coffee.

[Alex]

Tea, 'nuff said

[Nyx]

What the heck is Bubble tea?

You don't know what bubble tea is?! The best drink on earth:P


Anyways, coffee all the way. There's too much tea in my house which may be why I don't really like it. My parents have tea for breakfast, tea in the afternoon, tea after dinner, etc:P So I prefer coffee, although I rarely drink black coffee without milk unless I am extremely tired and really need it.

[Crocolyle]

I drink all manner of hot drinks--tea, coffee, hot cocoa, hot cider. I love them all. I prefer milk and sugar in my tea, though I sometimes drink it either straight or with lemon in it. I actually prefer cappuccino or espresso over like regular coffee, but I drink all of those. I tend to use cream and sugar. Hot cocoa is okay.

... It's even better if you mix it with a little Kahlua or Frangelico (sp)...

[Dr_House_4ever]

Ooh, that bubble tea sounds good. Now I have to go find some!

[Shaun]

Hmm, maybe I'll try bubble tea some time...

[Alex]

just had some green tea with pomegranate juice

now that is amazing

but now I'm hyper... >.<

[Shaun]

I've never heard of that. Interesting :P.


Maybe I should make this a poll...

[jordanisonfire]

How can you be hyper from green tea and a pomegranate?

[Shaun]

Sugar + Caffeine = Hyper

[Dr_House_4ever]

Sugar + Caffeine = Hyper


Not that that's a bad thing.:D

[jordanisonfire]

Yeah, we all gotta be hyper sometimes.

[Chie'N'Kadath]

I am going to say this quietly, delicately, and subtly. But my choice is TEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!. It's relaxing, when its herbal it doesn't have caffeine, and even though I like coffee tea doesn't need sugar to remove the biterness. Also there is so much more variety in tea.

[Shaun]

Dangit. I keep forgetting to get tea from the store. *sigh*

[Lykaios]

Niether, they are both disgusting.

They look weird, smell horrid and taste . . . Ugh!

I vote for orange juice.

[Sofiel]

Blue-orange juice?

I gotta say tea. Coffee does smell really bad..

There's this little tea shop down in Dundas that sells this strange apple tea stuff. Oh, my gosh. It's delicious!

[Lykaios]

Nope, just normal orange juice. :love:

[Nyx]

What are you talking about?! Coffee smells delicious.

Shaun: Have you tried bubbletea yet?

[Escape-Artist]

Chamomile tea is the only herbal tea I like. Otherwise, pineapple orange juice is really good. Also, Starbucks hot chocolate is good.
