Do You Prefer Tea or Coffee?

Ask a Question

I drink a lot of tea and coffee but when at other people’s houses I always pick tea. I find that I am quite fuzzy about the way that coffee is made, but tea always seems to taste good. On the other hand in a cafe I would always order coffee.

What do you prefer?

Wow you sound very healthy. Not a fan of green tea. But my husband loves it and drinks buckets of it.

Oh no you must be missing tea then. Or maybe not if you can drink nice coffee from home.

Wow that is very detailed. It sounds like something happened in 1988. I hope that the same doesn‘t happen to coffee.

I am part of the minority who likes neither. I only ever have cold soft drinks and the occasional hot chocolate.

Tea always. I used to work as a barista when I was much younger and really don't like the smell of coffee even now

KirstyWhit29673 so it is just the smell that puts you off. Although I guess smell is part of taste.

I like tea and coffee but my preference is tea most of the time. I will have a coffee mid morning and I always choose coffee at other people's houses as I like my tea a particular way and most people can't make it as I like it (I must be too fussy?!) ☕ 🐞

At home I always start the day with tea and have a coffee mid morning, then finish the day with a cup of tea.

At friends houses I usually have a coffee as pretty fussy with how my tea is made.

I realised after i was very ill at xmas, that it could indeed have been covid19 as i couldn't taste the dinner my sons made, and i still can't taste some things properly including tea, (before i was a huge tea drinker) now i find i prefer filter coffee, or coffee bags probably as it tastes stronger.tea is almost tasteless to me now, even if i make it strong.🤔

The smell of tea has never appealed to me.. I think it smells disgusting and don’t know why it’s such a popular beverage! I love coffee and have drank it for many years... I’ve definitely become more fussy about the brand though and I think it’s the only product I’m a snob about 🤣

At different times I also switch my preference. In cafes etc I prefer coffee. I hate paying for tea as I can't really tell the difference from cheap tea I make at home but coffee varies a lot. If I'm half asleep in the morning it has to be coffee.
