I think I got this trait from my parents and grandparents. You see, back when I was small, I always see them having coffee after a huge meal. Sometimes, even after every meal. They said it helps or aid in digesting the food. Coffee is more popular in my grandma's place than tea because the whole province is famous for its coffee. So right now, at this hour of night, I'm having a cup of hot coffee. It would take me a couple of hours past my bed time before I can finally sleep.
My husband suggested tea or wine after a big meal instead of coffee. I might try, but I don't like the bittery taste of wines.

Many of my friends like coffee, and they think coffee has a magic. I don't like coffee because that I think it is bitter. I like water best.

I like to drink coffee too, I like to smell the aroma of the coffee, and of course taste it, it's just very nice to smell and taste. Sometimes I think coffee can motivate me too, when I was stuck at work last time, I used to make a cup of coffee. Perhaps it makes me feel relax, and I could get back to work again and thought of a solution. I think I can still sleep well after drinking coffee.

I not like coffee but like tea and I feel if take tea at night time then sleeping problem arise and feel no sleeps. Because tea is helpful for awake full night.

In my case I only have a cup of coffee in the morning and after dinner.However I really tried my best to drink only on weekdays and I control myself to have a single cup during weekends.Other times I have a cup of milk late at night if I had difficulty in sleeping. On the other hand, I don't have any interest in drinking tea because of it's bitter taste.

I also have 2 cups of coffee a day, once in the morning and another at night. But since I am wanting to lose some weight right before Christmas, I have to switch to tea. I don't have a problem with the taste of tea, I actually prefer it sugarless and creamless. I have this tea from actual tea leaves that have been dried and all I have to do is pour boiling water over it and let it steep for a few minutes. I can take it plainly like that. But I am just used to the taste of coffee. As a matter of fact, I have just finished a cup as of this writing.

I think it's your own choice.
I also drink coffe before I go to bed. I know its weird to drink coffee before going to bed, but I can't stop. I need it at least twice a day.
So its all good.
