Coffee yes, but tea no. There you go. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
tea can definitely be more easily ruined with sugar. coffee is more robust in that sense. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Tea yes coffee no |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I didn't think of it like that but you're absolutely right. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Depends. If there is some sugar yes if not i won't have sugar. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|

I currently have 0-1 sugars in my tea, although I have been as high as 4 for some periods. I generally have coffee without sugar. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I drink my coffee/tea black with no sugar. I don't drink 'regular' tea, I think it's awful - I normally have green tea with lemon. delish. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i've tried green tea a few times. very refreshing actually. don't know why i don't drink it more!? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
no |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
survey says: no and no. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I have lots of sugar with both. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i would have guessed no for you. i guess that's a compliment. |
||||||||
|
|

3 sugar and lots of milk [in coffee] |
||||||||
|
|

i drink neither tea nor coffee, which makes me a bit peculiar for an irish person.. people, especially those in the country, look at me weird when i politely refuse either.. mrs. doyle situations ensue |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
That's just absurd. NEITHER? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah.. it's either beer or orange juice for me i'm afraid |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Not even a nice cup of hot chocolate? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|

i like coffee with my sugar. then again, i rarely ever drink that nasty shit. i do like tea, but i never thought about putting sugar in it. i've put honey in it before. i just can't ever get around to making it. i know it's supposed to be good for you (apparently, while noticing some brit's teeth, maybe not so much) although, i hardly ever "make" food to eat, i'm lucky if i ever use a microwave. i can forget about making a drink. |

The vanity of having super-white and straight teeth has made its way across the Atlantic to Britain. Humans aren't born with super straight and "perfect" teeth, and their teeth naturally lose their whiteness over time. It's not a wonderful national trait to be known for cosmetically enhanced teeth. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah man. i hate the idea of drinking hot liquids.. dunno where it comes from.. i just can't stand the idea. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
but grills are cool tho right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
idk if this is just a rumor or another stereotype but do you have "iced tea" over there, or is it only americans who prefer it that way?! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Cosmetically enhanced ones are usually laughed at. We're still (just) a part of Europe, so we prefer nature over Cosmetics. Although the chattering classes are naturally suckers for it. That and godawful fake tan. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Iced Tea is, again, becoming more popular, but only among the swank and those who want to appear "Urbane". |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
wait... so, just to be clear, we are talking about, ya know, iced out blingy blingy "let me see your grill" grillz, right? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm talking about breasts. I guessed that's what the 'grill' was? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
well, then i see how the 'fake tan' bit falls into line with mention of artifical mammaries now. but you know what i'm talking about, right? nelly? paul wall? rap? dumb? |
||||||||

|
|
tea - yes (with one exception: earl grey with cream/milk) coffee - yes (no - if cold/frappe) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm sorry, my street-slang days are long gone. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yes/yes unless its fruit tea which is a nice change, but not a substitute for a proper brew. i can live without sugar, just as long its not overly milky and pale. eugh. grey tea is the worst thing ever. i used to know a girl who left the tea bag in for like a second, had 4 sugars and loads of milk. freak. i could drink tea all day everyday for ever, but only have about 2 coffees a week. |
||||||||

|
|
alright, but tell me this... what are the 'chattering classes'? sounds like all the trophy wives and wannabes here in the real oc. |
||||||||

|
|
isn't "chai tea" green tea and milk? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
chai tea is really good. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
agreed |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I actually mix up a nice little cocktail of green tea extract, rosina, ginseng, yerba mate, and taurine... no sugar though. This company has some goods: ...otherwise I just brew up some jade green loose tea leaves :) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
oh... i was told sugar in green tea is faux pau... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
chai is a spice, I think. It gets made into shitty, overly sweet lattes though if you get them at a store, but you can buy it and it is like normal tea, though it is very distinct. I take nothing in either. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
No sugar for me. I'm suprised how many people here take sugar: Very few of my real life mates do. In fact, we only have sugar in the house for when we make tea for people of my parent's generation and tradesmen. |
||||||||

Here's another treat... Go to your local 7-11 (or whatever convenience store you got), get a 44 ounce cup, fill it with ice, fill it with black coffee, and stab it with a straw! :) |

I'm pulling an all nighter tonight, so may well make one of these later this morning. I've got an ice maker/crusher so I should be able to make it at home. The plan falls down, however, when it comes to the 44 ounce cup. According to google: 44 US fluid ounce = 1.30123531 litre Now, I know Americans like big cups for coke etc. but that is taking the piss. Almost 2 pints of coffee? You'd be bouncing off the walls surely? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
nah, I usually have 2 of those a day... they get pissy with me at 7-11 because I scoop about half a pot every trip. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I want a 44 ounce cup of ice and a bit of coffee in it, and then I'd like to swagger around town, drinking it out of a straw and saying "sup?" whilst I sup. |
||||||||

It's kind of interesting, ever since I left Art School, or even whilst I was there, I was always kind of creatively crippled by the thought that everything I put down on paper, or canvas, just seemed to be a lie, it wasn't what I wanted to say, it was just.. decoration, not art, not truth. But just reading this thread and the thing about 44 ounce cups, i know now what it is, the one thing, the one genuine creative spark I have in me that I could look at on my deathbed and say "Dan, you know, you did good". It's a 12' by 8' canvas, white base, with black lettering spelling out the words "Please fucking shut up" |

Don't be so hard on yourself. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm thinking "44 US fluid ounce = 1.30123531 litre", also in black in a tiny font (so small that unless you're right up close, you can't see it) underneath the main lettering would add something to it. Edgey: I just went downstairs to make myself one of your concoctions, only to find my girlfriend had thoughtfully bought me a few of those ready made "chilled coffee" drinks, so I will drink those first. |
