Both. I love coffee, and I still drink 2 or 3 cups a days, but I am working my way over to tea more and more as I get older. Tea is like tobacco, there are so many blends to try.

Coffee with cream and sugar, one or two cups a day. Tea with honey whenever I need it, but mostly unsweetened iced tea.

I've been a coffee man, but I'm having to give it up. Acid reflux.

1 pot of coffee in the morning. 2 to 3 kettles of Earl Grey the rest of the day. When I'm working from home. Pipes and cigars throughout the day.
On the road it's coffee most of the day, unsweet iced tea with meals. Pipes and cigars in the evenings.

I drink a lot more tea over coffee. Usually iced tea with some Splenda.

Couple mugs of coffee, a little milk, no sugar in the morning. Iced tea, unsweetened. Hot tea, occasionally, with 1/4 tsp sugar to take the edge off.

A cup of coffee in the morning, I usually grab a large iced tea throughout the day. I Like stopping at McDonald's, a buck for a large unsweetened iced tea is a great deal.

even when small child, the folks knew I don't even like the smell of anything coffee, obviously none. Am fine with store brand basic black tea, no creamer, just level teaspoon of real sugar. Will have several thruout the day when cold outside, many times one with dessert, company of Jeopardy

I enjoy them both at different times of the year. Winter is tea with milk and sugar. Usually Yorkshire Red Label. Earl Grey also good.
Summer is coffee, Turkish or Caribbean style. Cardamom and demerara sugar.

Cardamom and demerara sugar. Harney and Sons makes a really really good Earl Grey. I make a cuban style coffee, usually on the weekends, called a cortado with demerara sugar. Really good stuff.

Coffee with a splash of milk upon waking. Multiple cups of Yorkshire Red Label throughout the day, milk, no sugar. This is the way.

Coffee, morning and evening, with sweetener and and hazelnut creamer, or sometimes Italian sweet cream. Sweet iced tea with lemon now and then.

While I appreciate both, I prefer coffee. I actually keep a coffee pot in my classroom and some of my students have expressed amazement at the amount I drink. Hint: it's how an introvert manages to adapt to a noisy extraverted world. I will go through a pot or 2 of coffee with chicory every day. I like it "hamartological;" hot as Hell, black as sin, bitter as iniquity, and strong as death.

Hint: it's how an introvert manages to adapt to a noisy extraverted world. There is some serious truth to this. Lots of coffee and a mandatory after-lunch nap are what get me through the day. I love teaching and I love my students, but dealing with people takes a psychic toll and I need to recharge.

That's a great T-shirt. I'm a tea man in the morning and maybe coffee later in the afternoon - but I can take it or leave it really. I DO love a cup of tea with a fry though.

I'm the same way, my lunch breaks consist of quickly scarfing down my food, then a nap in the car for 20-30 minutes. People are the most exhausting part of life. Animals are great though.

Coffee, black, as it should be. I usually have a pot of coffee in the morning, and will sometimes put on a second. It was a huge shock to me when I first moved up to New England and ordered a regular coffee. What I received was sugar milk with a hint of coffee. I don't know how they drink it.
Tea is usually unsweetened iced sun tea in the summer. Another departure from tradition, as I grew up in the south where the amount of sugar in the tea seems to defy chemistry.
Occasionally hot tea, usually an Earl Grey style. No creme or sugar, but sometimes a touch of honey.
