QotD: One Lump or Two?
How do you take your tea or coffee?

Sooo many ways!
I used to work for Starbucks, so I have about a zillion different ways to "spice up" coffee.
Normally, I drink tea in the mornings. I have cut back on caffeine so I tend to stick to herbal teas, although I love Green Tea.
There is a herbal tea made by Tazo called Passion Fruit tea. I warm up half a cup of cranberry juice and then seep a tea bag of Tazo's Passion Tea in the hot juice and then I add nearly boiling water. It's very tart, but I like it! It has antioxidants and is very good for the urinary tract. It's also delicious with an orange.
I make myself a cup of coffee every Saturday, as a treat to myself. I used to be a coffee addict. I used to drink it every day, sometimes three times a day. Then I started having panic attacks and hyper-tension! So, the daily coffee splurges had to go.
What I do with my coffee is I heat up half a cup of whole milk and then I add coffee with about 2 cubes of sugar. Sometimes I'll add vanilla syrup, but not usually. I can't drink coffee black. I mean, I could, if I had to, but I'd rather not.
Back to tea, my favorite drink in the world...
I also love English breakfast, or Earl Grey tea with hot milk and just about all of the Celestial Seasoning's teas. Also Tazo's Passion Tea is very good iced too! You may know it from Starbucks as a Passion Tea Lemonade.

My favorite coffees are Sumatra and Rwandan coffees...with some raw sugar and real cream...but sometimes, especially during the holidays I like whole milk lattes with a little gingerbread or maybe a harvest spice syrup....see...its impossible to pick. I just can't do it.
My favorite coffee is also Sumatra! We rule!!!
We do rule. Sumatra kicks ass.
I like coffee but i perfer my tea too. I love green tea but not allowed to drinki t right now not good for baby.
My real favorite is rasberry tea also some different flavours that I can only get from Nova Scotia so Iam hoping my sister mails me some for Christmas. I will drink Teley Tea if thats all anyone has but I do prefer the flavour ones the most.
I always wanted to have one of those drive through espresso stands. I've heard they make good money! I don't know if I have any more patience for coffee snobs though. Starbucks kind of took the luster out of it for me.

Raspberry tea is wonderful.
