    I prefer iced tea.

    Both keep me awake.

    Of course it stimulates you ... it's caffeine. And which is the best for what?

    I like coffee in the morning, and tea after dinner.

    I usually prefer tea, but I love iced coffee.

    Caffeine actually makes me tired. Tired and jittery.

    i am having my exams this week...took coffee to keep my self awake..but did not work
    1. DrowseyMonkey
      maybe you need some sleep. Sleeping after studying is best. You'll do better if you're well rested. And good nutrition helps, lots of water, no sugar. Take a break ... walk or do some exercises.

      Good luck!

      ja... that cofee will keeps you"alive" for some time... than the brain will be too use to and will have no effect... so... try with the green tea... will help u more that a cup of cofee.... at least this is my opinion..it's not that i must be right...

    I like them both any time, hot or cold. Yeah, the caffeine in coffee and tea can really keep ya awake. It does me, for sure. But strangely, for my wife, caffeine has no effect on her.

    I think those mega-caffeinated energy drinks are the only drinks that have more caffeine than coffee.

    Tea, I never drink coffee.

  9. huggingthecoast
    I really love both. Living down South, I've also become quite a sweet tea (iced tea) fan.

    1. harjit84

  13. Majik
    Coffee for me up until about 7 in the evening, after that nothing more than a hot cup of green tea will do.
  14. pamelabaker
    I like them both and have a combined coffee /tea maker!!! Of course I work with children , they have the natural caffeine called youth!! We adults have to add ours to keep up!
  15. Sweetpinay
    I drink both:)
  16. wehireu
    They both keep me awake in the morning.
  17. aningeniousname
    Tea all day, every day.
  18. SoapWithBalls
    Tea most days...with a few Iced Caps now & then in the summer.
  19. mattiasx
    I like both, actually. Coffee on some mornings; I don't really crave it. However, Green Tea is amazing and I drink it any chance I get.
    1. pamelabaker
      The only thing you need to watch with green tea is that it strips your vocal chords some. If you sing or do a lot of public speaking it can be a problem.

    Tea for us flowers - unless its Tim Hardy's in Canada on the way back to Dubai from Canada:

    I like tea, though I've never been able to drink coffee. Not sure why.

    I particularly like Earl Gray and Mandarin Orange.
  22. braincatcher
    If its cold beverage, I'm more on tea/green tea. If its hot, it's got to be coffee. They say you could get more anti oxidants on coffee than green tea and grape juice. How true is this? Hey I think there should be a poll on this discussion. Is it possible here in BC?
  23. DVS
    Tea is for Vicars. Coffee all the way.

    Coffee - Nards
  25. rainatee
    Tea early morning, coffee during the work, tea in the evening.
  26. thatissocute
    coffee, coffee and more coffee! It really doesn't keep me awake unless I have it after 6 pm. I think that's a direct result of working 3rd shift in my 20's!
  27. Arcticulates
    I like coffee, usually in the mornings, tho I have drunk it in the afternoons when I know that I will be up pretty late. Tea is my luxury drink there are so many different kinds, I drink it when I want to relax and enjoy a good book.
  28. sayzlim
    I vote for TEA !
  29. BuurTilleen
    Freshly roasted coffee every morning and afternoon, otherwise I tend to get cranky or just collapse in the afternoon! Better not shake that delicate caffeine balance in my blood.. I always considered tea a drink for winter and never drink it in the summer, though I love tea too, especially spicy ones.
  30. Bayho
    ahah both of these are evil evil evil things that make you stay awake at night haha. mmm i think i would prefer tea. well they are both good but they both require some milk and some sugar to make it taste good and they are almost made the same way ahah. yehh... they are kinda the same thing its just you can get coffee more widely in stores.
  31. wardenwells
    Herbal or decaffeinated tea 4 me. I'm hardcore.
  32. Phillyzero
    Tea over coffee for me, but I prefer Chinese teas and such instead of British teas.
  33. buckrobin
    I drink coffee in the morning, tea in the afternoon and coffee at night. Contrary to popular belief, coffee doesn't keep me awake!
  34. DaisySoapGirl
    I like green tea; hot, iced or room temperature. I also like the tea made in the South, that's called sweet tea, with plenty of ice. But I love lattes, iced coffee with cream & sugar and frappucinos from Starbucks. If only the caffeine wasn't too much for me.
  35. TheWorldsDresser
    Decaf coffee or earl grey tea, both with warm milk. Flavored teas I like piping hot w/ lemon and 2 packs of splenda. Not that I'm picky...
  36. SandieLee
    yeah, I admit it...I'm a tea gal. Flavoured green and white teas are really good, but my absolute fav is the apple cinnamon by Tetley. Yummy.
  37. ranist22
    Both of them. Tea to calm down and coffee to get yourself working.
  38. mizhelena
    green organic tea.. or organic camomile tea.. have never been a coffee drinker ever.. but i like the smell of fresh coffee beans strangely enough
  39. bjork
    green tea for sure!!!!!!
  40. sharpodue
    tea tea tea!

    Tea, but only sometimes. Tea isn't a beverage for me so much as a ritual or occasion. Earl Grey and buttered toast is for rainy days with a book. Green tea is for sipping over chinese food while catching up with an old friend. Chai is for cold winter days cuddled under a blanket listening to the wind.

    Ice tea is a whole other deal; I'm hooked on the Arizona brand iced teas. They come in very tall cans for ninety-nine cents; the flavors include lemon, red apple, and pomegranate green tea.
