i like coffee quite a bit, but only at choice times

it makes me REALLY hyper and twitchy...reminds me of when i
took speed...but not as bad

it has its place, but i definitey prefer tea

the shitty dissolved teabag i'm drinking now sucks. That's
what the company buys for us.
i like good and expensive teas, sometimes buy them to drink
at home in big quantities, but usually I get a compromise
between quality and price trying not to mind the brand,
though it always is one of two or three brands. Prefer black
to green.

tea is fucking awesome, but over the past two weeks I have
gone off on a slight coffee tangent.

I used to be a hardcore PG Tips man, but that all changed
when they brought out Tetley extra-strong.

But if you want the best cuppa, treat yourself to a box of
Yorkshire Gold.

Right, time for tea.

yorkshire gold?

how would i acquire that? sounds awesome

i only drink caffeine (soda / red bull / sparks) when i need
to be woken up - i would never drink those randomly for now
reason

tea, however, i drink like water...whenever i get a chance !

i hate it when all sorts of herbal beverages area labelled
"tea", even if they have no black/green tea (and hence no
caffeine) in it.

That said, I'm hypersensitive to caffeine (boy do I got
stories to tell), so I stay clear of the "real tea" sort,
although the occasional green tea is QUITE flavoursome.

My herbal drinks of choice include peppermint, camomile and
all sorts of weed (not weed).

I LOVE TEA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

only the proper PG tips stuff though, none of this fancy
herbal crap.
i regularly have up to 10 chocolate digestive biscuits with
a cup of tea, and about 5 cups a day....

I've been tea binging too. I'll have like 3 - 5 cups a day.
The caffiene is awesome

box-bob - i hear ya on the herbal side of things - most tea
is really acidic so herbal stuff def. has a place in me
'art

and bob - where in america could i get that? - supposed i
could have my uncle mail some over but that seems a little
excessive !

S'okay. I like a cup on Sunday aftenoon, (recovering from
fri/sat night). Most of the week in the office, I just drink
loads of cold water. That's the only thing that really
refreshes me.

green tea or oolong is where it's at for me. i like it very
much. : )
i like some black teas too; but english-style tea or earl
grey aren't my cups of it.



as for coffee, i like sweet latte but i don't like espresso
at all. and i'm over-reactive to coffee too - it doesn't
make me hyperexcited, but i've already had restless nights
because of it. one cup in the afternoon, even at 2pm, can
make me spend a restless night.

What fizzy drinks do people like?

I personally feel Dr Pepper is the Pen Expers of the fizzy
drink world

personally i like ginger ale the most. but i'm not too fond
of sodas in general - most are too sweet and too sparkly for
my taste. : )

what do you mean by "the Pen Expers of..."? (since you have
"penexpers" as your screen name i guess it means a good
thing but...?)

lol @ "pen expers of the fizzy drink world"! Dr. Pepper's
sweet, though. Maybe too sweet in the long run... It's
always the nicest things in life that kill ya.

euphonic filter: The american natural products movement is
full of possibilities. Check out your local health store, or
online stores, or order catalogues of some New Age
magazine...

I tell you, sometimes you gotta follow your heart, not your
mind, if only to get a hold of the sweetest herbs in the
world. *sniff*

Or, plant your own seeds, try them out and mix them, a
backyard or a balcony will do. Not everything needs to be
pre-packaged.

This stuff tastes like Mother Nature herself pee'd into my
cup. Gives me a huge shot of caffiene too. Costs about 10
bucks for the box in the pic.
