How many of you guys like tea? How many prefer tea to coffee? How many hate coffee (like me)?
What's your favorite type of tea and how do you prepare it?

I personal LOVE English Breakfast tea, with 2 spoons of sugar, and a small amount of milk. I normally fill up the cup 4/5th of the way and fill the rest with milk. It is AMAZING!

Lucky I still had 5 days left on a credit card replacement warranty so I got the money back. Then sold the card to friend for $20 and he RMA'd it got a new card. -this was before the mining craze now I wish I had have RMA'd it.

If I drink coffe I usually mix the coffe with a small amount of hot water to get it concentrated, add a splash of vanilla creamer, and fill the rest with ice and milk. If I'd prefer it hot, ~60% boiling hot water, a bit of creamer and rest milk.

I drink tea much more often though, black or flavored green (mint especially)

no sugar or milk in tea, straight is best.

I like just plain warm green tea. I'm not really a big coffee drinker, but I only really like coffee plain as well. I'm not really too sure why, but adding things in just messes with me for whatever reason I guess.

Straight tea normally tastes like boiled water to me. I need the milk in black to to bring out the taste and I need honey in herbal teas to bring out the taste. I guess I'm odd?

Usually milk or sugar destroys the taste for me. Maybe you just need to steep longer.

or let it cool down? you won't taste anything if your tongue is being cooked while drinking it.

I am personally addicted to tea, that's not why my name on here is tea. But I drink around 3-4 GALLONS of Iced and sweet tea a week.

Russian caravan is awesome with just black tea.  Tad of milk and no sugar.  That's basically all I drink for hot drinks, and a small amount of coffee
