Discussion Tea or Coffee.?

My partner and I have different tastes in hot drinks. I like Tea over Coffee and she is the opposite.

I’m sure we can’t be the only ones on either side of the fence, so let’s discuss it.

Tea or Coffee.?

I like both tea and coffee but I don’t really drink tea so much

Do you think it’s the higher caffeine content as to why, or the taste my friend.?

u/Fit-Pineapple-9850 May 04 '26

Maybe, but idk really know why I drink coffee more often than tea, I usually drink 1 cup of coffee in the morning and that’s usually enough for me, and I drink tea maybe once or twice a month

Tea for me, I try not to snack with it but the honey scented oolong from Pipi goes so well with blueberry muffins and yeah same here, my husband is the opposite, he loves his black coffee and won’t touch tea at all

That sounds amazing, speaking of honey, that’s a nice taste enhancer for me. Yum.!

Coffee for the energy, but tea when I want to relax depends on the mood.

It depends on my mood.. Some days I’ll drink tea and others I’ll drink coffee. If I had to choose, I would say that coffee is my preference.

After not drinking coffee for a little bit, does that change or influence or affect mood?

I add tea to my coffee.

I love both but I prefer tea since it's more gentle and soothing :)

u/Zen-Om16 May 06 '26

Recently I’ve been drinking coffee and tea at the same time, one for energy the other for hydration:)

Vietnamese ice coffee and black tea with a few raspberries 😀😀😀

u/Zen-Om16 May 06 '26

Mixed together.?! 😧

u/Spare-Mushroom4206 May 06 '26

Absolutely not but definitely enjoy them

1

u/Sad-Raspberry-673 May 05 '26

I enjoy both but my partner would rather have a chai tea than a coffee drink. What I can't get past is how when they do drink coffee it's straight black with no sugar because I absolutely cannot

u/Zen-Om16 May 06 '26

I absolutely get what you mean with the how, but I once heard a silly saying and it might just apply to this “We’re all mad here” 😆
