Wait a minute! This poll is skewed to non-drinkers! Tho it might be the caffeine talking.

Coffee day time. Tea after 4. I love Earl Grey.

@annecavicchi Virtual high-five, fellow non-coffee drinker! 🙌

When I was little, I took a sip of my mom's #coffee to see what the deal was with the weird brown drink she always had around.

It scarred me for life.

Since that day almost 40 yrs ago, I've steered clear of coffee, mocha, espresso, latte, and anything else associated with coffee beans. The thousands of #Starbucks stores in the US are wasted on me.

Nothing against coffee drinkers, of course. You're all still great.

@annecavicchi

I drink tons of tea.

I’ve had coffee twice.

Once in Ecuador when I was exhausted and they assured me that cafe con leche was mostly cream and i wouldn’t notice the coffee. They lied.

Once in Burma when a good friend of my wife’s made us an “American breakfast” and I couldn’t say no. In that case it wasn’t horrible, since Burmese coffee is made with huge amounts of sweetened condensed milk, so it tasted a bit like burnt caramel. But I have no desire to repeat it.

@annecavicchi hard to answer. I didn’t start drinking coffee until it was “hidden” as espresso shots in lattes when I moved to North America. After 8ish years of start I started drinking espressos and then many years after did I start drinking (fussy) coffee. But I still love tea!! (Black & green) 🤷🏻‍♂️

And my wife is 99% tea except the occasional latte for a caffeine boost.

@annecavicchi

I drink coffee but don't like it. I put lots of Cream in it. Two cups a day, 6 ounces.

@annecavicchi I am but I wasn't. I got into drinking coffee at University having been raised as a tea drinker in the UK. The vending machine that sold milk would often run out and I was a long way from anywhere to buy it. Drinking Indian tea black is not great so I started drinking coffee black because it tastes okay without milk.

My wife loves the smell of roasting coffee but doesn't like the taste. She will sometimes drink a mocha and sometimes she drinks coffee ice cream or chocolate.

@annecavicchi I used to drink #coffee , gave it up & now I’m back!

@annecavicchi I like to say I don't drink coffee, I drink crimes because I get, like. Exclusively horribly sweet barely any actual coffee frappes from starbucks... or I've argued for the rights of McDonald's iced coffees before, which more Refined coffee ppl tell me Does Not Count. 🤣

My spouse otoh will gladly add as many espresso shots to their coffee as sbux will let them, add half n half, no sweetener, and call that good. (We both make grossed out faces if we try each other's drink. 😂)
