Good morning! And Happy Friday! 
 for the upcoming weekend

Easy question this morning and I know we've talked about this a while back. 

Coffee, tea, or........? What is your favorite morning beverage? And how do you drink it?

I'm a coffee girl. Right now I've been drinking Premium Arabica for the Keurig. Not too bold, not too weak, it's a good cup. And I drink my coffee black.

How about you?

Coffee at work,  English breakfast tea at home. I drink both with 1/2 & 1/2 and sugar. Herbal tea I like plain. Green tea, maybe a little honey. I love my Keurig.

I am a BIG coffee drinker. A pot before I come to work, then a pot while I'm here. Have to have cream, but am going to try to wean off of it for my teeth's sake!

Warm water.


Some days, after water I'll steep some tea, just plain. Lots of different flavours here so it's seldom the same thing twice. When I worked at a coffee shop for 5 years, the few times I took coffee it was decaf with tons of milk and sugar. Any other time, I stuck to tea. I was never a coffee drinker, but I asked to have some coffee saved for me to make a mocha a week or so back. That was the worst and the least productive day of my life - probably less productive than when I got teeth pulled.
I was light headed and lethargic, a little nauseous for the entire day and I couldn't even finish the mocha. I put more hot chocolate than coffee anticipating a poor reaction to caffeine too (but I was expecting breakouts from sensitive skin). So coffee is a "never again" for me.

I drink a coffee most mornings. Just one cup out of my Tassimo. I put cream and sugar in it. Sometimes I have a tea now that I have a water cooler with a hot feature. It's so easy that way compared to having to boil water.

I'm a coffee girl also and drink it with can milk (much creamier than regular milk) and sweet and low.  I drink one to two cups a day.

Coffee with milk, I really don't like the powder creamers.  Sometimes I get a small carton of half and half but once that is gone I go back to milk.

Coffee with lowfat milk.

Iced at work (it's always too hot in there).  Hot coffee on weekends at home.

Sometimes, I splurge on fresh from the farm whole milk.  I have it for this weekend!

I must have at least one cup of tea in the morning. Either green or Earl Grey are my faves. Coffee seems to me a cold weather drink, but I do enjoy it occasionally.

I start with a big cup of tea - either green, white or yerba mate. A little later I have coffee with almond milk. I used to drink coffee all the time, but my stomach doesn't like it much these days :sigh: I stick to one cup only now, with occasional cappuccinos from a local coffee bar as a treat (they have almond milk too:) ).

Coffee with low fat milk in the morning, no sugar. Paul uses Sweet & Low but I'm trying to get him off it). Sometimes coffee in the evening. (Folgers Coffee)

Coffee with flavored creamer.  I drink tea later in the day sometimes (or hot chocolate) but in the morning I want my coffee!  DH even brings it to me in our bedroom if he is on vacation or it's the weekend.  He knows!!

Coffee. On cold days I drink it hot with creamer that taste like Mexican hot chocolate. On hot days, over ice with vanilla creamer

i don't "do" caffeine, so no coffee or teas or hot chocolate for me. in fact, i don't drink hot beverages really at all. mornings mean a glass of juice and a glass of whole milk, with my breakfast.

I drink diet coke in the morning. Sometimes when I'm out running errands I'll stop and get some coffee from 7-11 or Star Bucks with cream.

I drink tea most of the time but first thing in the morning it needs to be coffee. I'm really not able to function without it.

I drink a Japanese brand of instant coffee most mornings, with soy milk and sugar. If I can be bothered I make a little pot of espresso, but I usually stick to the instant.
