I used to drink a lot of coffee. Especially when I worked in an office but found that if I drank it too late in the evening I would be up half the night, hence the need for more coffee the next day.
So I switched to coffee in the morning and tea at night. My favorite blend of tea was Earl Grey.
Now that I am a 100% raw foodist I don't drink either. If I need a pick me up I juice a handful of parsley, an apple and a few carrots. Tastes yummy, at least to me, and within 15 minutes I am rejuvenated. It is better than a fruit juice or a smoothie as loading up on sugar even fruit sugar is good at first but can lead to a sugar crash a couple hours later.

I drink coffee, but only becuase I like the way it tastes. I also love hot tea, earl grey, english breakfast, irish breakfast, lady grey, etc. I put a little milk and sugar in mine. If you want a good pick me up try EmergenC, It is a packet you put in a little water and has vitamins, mainly vit. C. It realy works and makes you feel great. I don't think I was ever allowed to have coffee, just Hot tea. My brothers (2 younger ones by 2 and 3 yrs) always surprised me with a cup at night. I was realy lucky to have siblings who cared so much

I drink coffee. But not at night. My last cup is usually no later than 3 in the afternoon. I try to drink water too. But I have got to have my coffee in the morning!

Mee, Too!!! I drink coffee in the morning and tea at night. And my fav, is Chai Spice Black Tea. It is sooo tasty!! And man, after putting the kids to sleep and having the oportunity to chill out, surf the net, or watch tv......and enjoying a warm cup of tea. That's my idea of a perfect evening! I have never tried making fresh juices, but yours does sound yummy! Must try it!

I drink coffee, lots and lots of coffee. It's all because of these yummy creamers they have now. Coffee does not keep me up. But it is affecting my health. I am way too skinny, and pretty dehydrated. This is a bad thing for a Floridian.

I drink both. I can drink coffee anytime of the day and not have to worry about it keeping me up. But I don't drink so much that I'm worried. I can go days without drinking it and then decide that I'd like a coffee.

I am not a coffee drinker. I love the smell of fresh roasted coffee, but just never cared for the taste. I like tea, hot or iced. I drink alot of green tea, since I heard it has alot of antioxidants and is good for you. I like my hot tea with honey and milk.

I love both coffee and tea. My favorite way to drink coffee is to make a smoothie with lots of ice and cold coffee.
As for tea, I recently discovered chai spice tea. It's wondeful! I don't know if I'll ever go back to boring old orange pekoe after tasting chai.

I like both tea and coffee. I have to stop drinking coffee around the evening so I can sleep which I then switch to herbal tea. I don't do much as far as other drinks.
