Tea versus Coffee (lemmy.world)

What is your choice of hot drink between the two? A cup of tea or a cup of coffee?

I used to be big on drinking tea including herbals which was relaxing while reading a book or looking up about subjects in the I.T field for me.

But coffee? I drink it in the morning ready for my day and work search, keeps me upright that caffeine stuff but I don't drink more than 2 cups due to caffeine contents.

I used to drink quite a lot of it in the workplace (Deadlines and projects tend to make you do that)

So what about you? Are you a tea enjoyer or a coffee enjoyer?

I know this answer isn't tea or coffee, I don't like coffee and I gave tea up because it was staining my teeth.

I was on herbal teas for a while but I then had the idea of drinking a weak beef stock (1 stock cube to 1.2 litres of water) and I love it so much I can't go back!

I thought I'd miss that caffeine but it was very easy to give up and I really don't miss it at all!

I don't know where you're from so you might be familiar with this anyway, but this is actually really popular at football matches in the UK. It's made with bovril rather than a stock cube, but the idea is the same

I've tried bovril but I don't like it as much, it also has more salt.
