being irish a strong cup of breakfast tea is usually a given, although ive gotten into drinking straight up assam recently which is lovely โ€“ but i had an amazing citrus honey tea in a korean restaurant the other day that i would strongly recommend!! i think its made out of a sort of jam and hot water like this:

Always wanted to try a tea party ngl lol! Iโ€™m plain with coffee, normal dark roast with cream and sugar, but I love to have it decaf with some cake at the end of the day as an occasional treat. Sometimes Iโ€™ll drink chamomile tea with lunch or before bed.ย

I'm desperate to find a place in London that stocks lavender syrup. I had a lavender latte in Vancouver about 10 years ago and it was so amazing but I can't find them ever.

My all time favorite coffee and has been for 15 years! ( I feel old saying that now ) ย but it is Barneyโ€™s coffee and tea co. Santaโ€™s white Christmas. ย It is an amazing coffee thereโ€™s nothing like it and it is also priced fair. Itโ€™s a medium roast coconut caramel and vanilla. I like to brew it into a large mason jar with a sweet cream creamer and a hint of sugar and put the jar overnight in the fridge. Next day either turn into a frappe with blending it in with ice and lining the cup with some caramel drizzle and a little chocolate drizzle as well. Or will just pour over ice with caramel drizzle and drink as is. Itโ€™s deff. A delight year round!!! If ur in the south they have it in stores like Publix during Christmas or year round online at bar eyes website. But other than that I like me a chai latte or boba with chai lol

Hot drinks is kind of my thing lol, i have hot drinks all day during the cold months to the point that i rarely drink water at home. I make french press coffee with fresh ground beans every morning not even because Iโ€™m a real coffee snob but because i just like the ritual of it and honestly just the aesthetic. Iโ€™ve been making mulled apple cider on the stove by the cup all fall and winter to have during the day. When i was in college i lived near a really good chocolate store that sold hot coco mix, i drank that all the time with heated up milk on the stove like a fancy lad, but i canโ€™t have that anymore so the cider replaced it. i also enjoy loose leaf tea that i make in another smaller french press, although Iโ€™m looking to get into gong fu brewing with a gaiwan. I donโ€™t think Iโ€™m super good at making tea but i enjoy it anyways. Recently Iโ€™ve been going to bed with a cup of sleepytime tea, Iโ€™m planning on planting up a herbal tea garden this spring so i can make my own blends. Iโ€™m planning for chamomile spearmint and sage at the moment until i can make space for more haha.

Hah, I always make my own coffee in the morning and grind up beans, that's all I need. Rest of the day I just drink water. In the evening I like Celestial Seasoning's Tension Tamer! I always have it in my cupboard. :)

I'm mostly an Earl Grey guy, but I'll never say no to a perfectly brewed pot of Oolong Tea. Also, Ceremonial Grade Matcha is out of this world! Too bad I can very seldom afford it

I'm actually not a big coffee drinker. I prefer tea. I love all kinds of tea, but Chai is my favorite. I'm a huge lover of cinnamon flavor anyway. If it's morning time, I'll sometimes eat a blueberry bagel with it. I prefer loose leaf based teas. For coffee, on the instances that I indulge in it, I have to have it ultra light with tons of cream, and at most, one packet of sugar; unless I'm eating something sweet with it, then I won't add any kind of extra sugar.ย

Good ol English Breakfast tea just hits the spot sometimes. Switched it up today and made a Jasmine White tea. Yumm


@Claireโœฟย  Yeah, I really miss going to coffee shops. Just the smell of coffee helps me focus.ย

Happy to be in a tea room.

Everything is locked down here in the UK at the moment so can't go and sit for a tea/coffee, it's just takeaway service.
Just yesterday I was thinking how I regret not going for a spontaneous indoor coffee! Especially with how horrendous the weather is here at the moment and how much I want to escape my house.
Making it a goal to go through coffee shop menus and always order something different! =]

Funny the things you miss...

I was reluctant to buy a Tassimo because of the plastic waste, but my mum ended up buying me one, so most mornings I have either a latte or a regular black coffee from that thing.ย 


As for tea, being English it's usually a cup of regular-ass black tea with milk.ย 

I also have a grinder and one of those plastic cones that holds a sheet of filter paper over the mug, but since it takes a full ten minutes to make a single cup of coffee that way, I only really use it when I feel like really treating myself.

@Calliopeย  lol I think I've done that but only took 2 sips to realize. I like my teas extra spicy and full of tannins. There's definitely a difference.ย

Okay hear me out.

Hot water.

I love black coffee, coffee with cream and sugar and foam, chai, herbal and black teas, matcha... they're all my regular go-tos in the morning.I find the ritual of sipping them and feeling the repeated shock of scalding heat fade to relative coolness in my mouth while I breathe in the steam is what helps ground me and get me ready for the day.

And then one day I forgot to actually put anything in the hot water, and didn't realize until I was 1/4 of the way through. Turns out, it worked pretty much the same. Turns out half the time I just want the feeling of drinking something hot more than the flavor of it.

I'm an espresso guy - more or less obsessed with espresso really. I like to keep things simple - just a glass of sparkly water before to clean the palet, nothing else to go with my coffee

I donโ€™t really have a go to coffee drink as Iโ€™m always looking to try new things. I always order seasonal flavors from Bones Coffee Company and roller skate to work.

I love all coffee. Iโ€™ve recently started playing around with different recipes and flavors and itโ€™s been a lot of fun.ย 


I forgot how much I really like hot tea until a few weeks ago. I was gifted some really nice vanilla black tea for Christmas and I loved it so much I had to order more.ย

Have not really gotten into Matcha.


Ooh I love brownies but a bit sweet and rich for me in the morning.

I just ordered some red tea off of republic of tea. I had a sample and it was quite pleasant. Perfect for an afternoon treat.ย

I prefer my coffee in cold brew form. I bought a huge glass pitcher with a spout on it and large mesh reusable bags so I make a batch for the week and fill up a cup every morning. I like it with some stevia sweetener and a splash or two of Silk oatmeal cookie flavor oat milk creamer (it's so good).


I do also like hot matcha lattes and chai tea. Any dark and spicy tea I love. I don't usually eat it with things though.

we didn't have a group thing like that in my office, but i still miss everyone standing around in the break room getting their tea/coffee in the morning and making small talk. :(


my favorite hot drink is probably a chai latte - i don't drink coffee much.
