Well for me.. I get out of bed, and go straight to the kitchen to make myself a cup of tea... I cannot start my day until I have had my first cup of tea! I know that tea actually contains more caffiene in it than coffee, but since I can't stand coffee, I need my cuppa! So how about you what is your first drink of the day?

I'm just the same, I need my cup of tea as soon as I get up, it is what helps me get through the day! I drink 10-20 cups a tea a day. I have just been out and bought some coffee this morning though, as the humid weather is making me feel tired so I think I need coffee too.

My first drink of the morning is cup of coffee and then as a rule I have two big cups of coffee in the morning, it is something that I look forward too and sometimes I also drink coffee during the day, but I never skip my first two cups in the morning.

I start my morning with 2-3 glass of water. This is a habit from long back which helps me in the morning activities. I know there are many people who start their morning with smoke to make other morning activities easier but I just need few glass of water after a deep sleep. I have coffee/tea in the morning only after water, nothing before water.

Hi, my first drink is a cup of coffee with milk and a heap of chocolate kinda like Starbucks coffee. I like the aroma of coffee. I drink tea also but not so often. Like tea, coffee has anti oxidant and anti aging properties. I take coffee 2x with only half of teaspoon.

I like a nice cup of tea with milk too, though I don't drink it with sugar. I do drink coffee sometimes and I take sugar in that if I do. Like you I can't start my day if I haven't had my first cup of tea and I usually have some toast with it too, they do say breakfast is the most important meal.

Hi there rosie230! My first drink in the morning would usually be hot coffee. But in the absence of coffee, anything hot would do. It could be milk, tea, or chocolate.

LOL... you sound so much like me... I have to have a cuppa in peace and quiet, otherwise I can get mad lol... I am having to have a bigger cup of tea now though, since my little one has decided that he also enjoys drinking mummies tea, I cannot wait till he can hold a cup on his own without spilling it everywhere, then he can have his own lol

For me its water. Our body is really thirsty after all that sleep so drinking water is really a must. I usually drink 2 glasses of water when I woke up. And I immediately feel revitalized when I had my drink.

I also drink some glasses of water. Water is the natural drink and I need it. It allows me to do the exercises for a log time.

Coffee - strong and black!! I went off tea when I was having my first daughter 39 years ago - I've never drunk it since, I can't even stand the smell!!!!

I start my day off with a glass of apple juice, actually at the moment it's all I'm drinking and the only other type of drink I have in the house is bottles of Britvic 55 and some lovely Homebrew that I mad a several months back which I should actually try again to see how it is now. I'm not a tea or coffee person, as I really dislike the tastes.

I used to drink a glass of coffee every morning but after I arrived here in my new location, I always drink a glass of milk everyday to make me feel better the whole day specially if I am working. I never drink softdrinks in the morning, although we are open to drink it here and it's all free, no limit depending on your capacity.
