Do you drink coffee?
 
I normally don't but have so much to do and knew with the fireworks going on at all hours last night I wouldn't sleep until around three. I went and made two four cup pots of coffee, added sipping chocolate, peppermint extract, and coconut milk. Instant peppermint mocha. [heart]

I've had seven cups this morning. Seven. [insane]

That be quite a caffeine high you must be experiencing!

I do drink coffee, and a lot of it. It doesn't quite keep me awake (conversely, any less than 2 cups would make me sleepy), but I drink it mostly for comfort, as peculiar as that might sound. I'm trying to cut back, though, so I alternate coffee with tea every so often. [:B]

I downed the last cup. I know I'm wired because I'm a bit jittery but I mostly feel a bit nauseous.

I totally get drinking it for comfort, that's when I usually drink it. A hot cup of coffee is really soothing. I normally drink water, I drink coffee or tea about once every two weeks.

No, it taste odd to me. Love the smell of it though. I could sniff it all day long. I live in Jax, FL and there is a maxwell house plant downtown and it's amazing everytime we go by it. BUT drinking it no. I also remember my mother telling me that it taste just like it smells. Don't know what she was thinking. LOL

I love the smell and grew to love the taste, but.. I don't like the effects of drinking coffee. This morning I had work early so I decided to get a cup of Americano and my bowels were grumbling for the rest of the day. [gonk] Caffeine addiction and headaches are no joke either.

I love coffee, but I can't drink it black. I always have to have a dab of milk and at least one teaspoon of sugar in it for it to be stomachable. If I've got that then I can drink an 8 cup pot of the stuff on my own. I agree on it being a comfort drink--I hate tea, so coffee is my thing. That or my homemade hot cocoa.

I can't stand normal tasting coffee I can only drink. the flavored kind like a macho chocolate are some other kind. yet I do like the smell of coffee as well form some reason. I only touch coffee once in a while not that often.

MinakoAxule 07-06-2013 02:24 PM

I used to be able to drink coffee but ever since my abdominal surgery I can't stand the stuff. It makes my stomach hurt so bad. Same thing with peppers now. I used to love peppers but now can't stand them.

I love iced coffee. For some reason, hot coffee (even in small amounts) gives me a terrible stomachache. Iced coffee wakes me up and doesn't leave me with any tummy troubles afterwards. ^_^

Flowery Pit 07-06-2013 11:41 PM

Nope, I don't like like the taste. I always find the starbucks ones look super tasty and good, but I've had a Chai Latte and it was bleck to me. I'm a tea drinker.

ElysiumFate 07-07-2013 01:58 AM

Chai is tea though, Flower. [lol]

Flowery Pit 07-07-2013 03:18 AM

It was a latte though. [:(] So it was still bitter.

Mogwai 07-07-2013 07:32 AM

7 cup of coffees in the morning is quite too much... you probably visited the toilet quite a few times I assume...XD

And to answer your question - yes, I do drink coffee. Not more than 2 cups a day though - too much caffeine, for one. and 2, too many calories.

And I drink the usual coffee with 1/3 milk and 2 tsp of sugar.

jellysundae 07-07-2013 05:49 PM

As a Brit, I drink tea, of course [:8] I can only drink "proper" coffee if it's laced with milk, because the caffeine kills me otherwise, I feel like the top of my head is floating away. [blush]

Brits in general drink granulated coffee ,if you were wondering what I meant by "proper". We tend to think someone's trying to be posh if they have a coffee maker [lol]

I don't. I don't drink traditional teas either, only the herbal variety sometimes. I've never seen my dad without a cup of coffee by him apart from while he's driving, in my entire 22/23 year existence. He gets pushy and violent when he can't have one. I see it more of an addiction and bad habit than a refreshing drink, so it's never really interested me. Coffee flavoured sweets and cake rank among my favourite things though.

wagon 07-08-2013 06:28 AM

Nope, don't drink tea or coffee. They both taste absolutely disgusting to me, no offense to anyone that loves them. I did grow to like the smell of coffee from working at a coffee shop, but I never could make myself like the flavor. What a waste of all the free coffee I could drink while I worked there, huh?

Cinderella 07-08-2013 02:01 PM

Holy cow, seven cups of coffee?! :o
I never drink coffee. I hate it. And I don't really need it, thankfully. XD
I'm something of a morning person. :D

Knerd 07-08-2013 10:23 PM

I'm drinking coffee right now!

*sips*

Q U E E N 07-08-2013 11:04 PM

Nah, I don't usually drink coffee. When I do, it's usually because I'm with someone who wants to buy coffee from Starbucks or something.

ElysiumFate 07-08-2013 11:28 PM

I've never been affected by caffeine for some reason so I don't get addicted to coffee...the only thing it does to me is make me jittery if I drink four or more cups.

Yamka Jaden 07-09-2013 01:57 AM

I don't like hot coffee, as I prefer iced coffee. I guess because I just don't like the taste of hot coffee.

Screaming Mime 07-09-2013 05:20 PM

I like hot tea a whole lot better than coffee. It tastes a lot better in my opinion.

CelesteStar 07-11-2013 06:02 AM

I drink coffee in the mornings sometimes. I like to add lots of sugar in the coffee.

Sweet~Insanity 07-11-2013 07:13 PM

Mmmm coffee. :D I love coffee, though first cup doesnt really effect me, I would just like to slip back into bed. I dont get hyped up if I drink a lot of it, just sit back and enjoy it ^__^ No jitters or anythin like that, though I do think I should cut down. :p

Vox 07-14-2013 10:25 PM

That sounds delicious. I love coffee, drink about eight cups a day. But the caffeine doesn't help keep me awake anymore since I've desensitized to it after years of caffeine addiction.
