    coffee, a variety of teas, and chocklet, are all substances i enjoy for the taste of them. and generaly do so without consideration of any mildly neurotropic effects they might also coincedentaly have.

    coffee, chocklet and milk, it is my habit and general inclination to consume togather, as a single substance, of the proportions more milk then coffee and the whole completely saturated with the chocklet.

    teas and infusions (the tecnical name for stuff dipped in hot water that doesn't come from the tea plant), i prefer simply unadulturated and on their own merrits. though on rare occasions i have had certain teas, such as lapsong souchong (however it's spelled) especialy, with a wee bit of cream or milk in it.

    the custom of putting lemon in tea adds no virtue and hides a particular tea or infusion's unique qualities. lemon, i put in soups or stews, where it brings out the salted flavour without having to overdo the sodium intake, and simutaniously provides the hightend level of intake of vitam c so helpful in reducing the probability of colds and flews. sugar in and of itself, other then that which is intigrated into the forms of chocklet, adds nothing and only detracts.

    so there you have it; tea generaly standing on its own, and coffee, generaly flavoured with chocklet, if and when not merely milk, flavoured with coffee and/or also chocklet

    Black coffee in the mornings, and sometimes some Cherry Coke Zero (aka diet) in the afternoons. I'm a "I need the caffeine but don't want the calories" kind of mama. ;)

    I do mine in black tea, brewed in my lil tea maker. Ad a little sweetner and start my morning every day that way, followed by a large bowl of bran & grain flakes. Rufage, as I call it.
    Peaceful thoughts.... Farmout :)

    I'm a tea ADDICT. I drink Forrelli brand Ceylon tea. Once when i wake up, the days i don't have school i have it with my lunch, and then once with my dinner. And then, whenever else i feel like tea in between then. It's my favorite thing in the world to drink. 2 tbs of sugar does it for me. Delicious.

    As for coffee, I've never been a big coffee drinker. But, i will have a cappuccino every once and a while.

    I like chai tea, but I usually have a mug of that some time in the afternoon ~ just with a teeeeny bit of honey.

    But to wake up in the morning, I make myself the strongest mug of coffee I can possibly make, and then just add half a tsp of sugar and maybe about a tsp of milk or cream to give it a bit of colour....
