    Lately Kona blend seems to be doing nicely, no sugar no cream...

    Unpolluted is the only way to drink coffee!

    Haven't seen you for quite some time. Welcome back.

    Thanks for the info, Ms Ducky!!! Funny that I can handle black tea, but can't handle the green... Maybe the chai varieties that I drink have very little black tea in them???

    Tec, can you drink chai tea?? How about herbal teas???

    I brew a pot of coffee up to the 8 cup level and drink it daily. Not sure how many ounces that is. I love Kenya AA, Hawaiian Peaberry, Kona. This is my big splurge. I also like my coffee piping hot with lots and lots of real cream in it, I'm no purist.

    Oh, I love coffee, I mean like LOVE coffee. I like coffee ice cream, coffee everything.

    I've never tried chai tea. Think I'll pick some up tomorrow to give it a shot. But I don't like most herbal teas, so I rarely drink them. I don't remember them affecting me one way or the other on the times that I have.

    Time to do some experimenting, I think :)

    PS - Thank you, MsDucky

    Whenever I drink coffee, I start shaking or trembling. I have solved that issue by mixing it with powdered milk, chocolate and artificial sweetners to make mocha.

    You're welcome Ziddina and Tec. I found this online while looking up info on tea and theophylline. It seems like it fit the thread.

    I can drink two cups of coffee and than go to sleep. Everyone seems to think it wakes them up but not me I like the taste

    My husband and I split a 12 cup pot in the morning. I like a good dose of half in half in mine, no sugar. We buy Starbucks beans at Sam's so it's ground fresh every morning. I cannot drink coffee later, it makes me sick.

    A funny story: in 2005 when the first hurricane shut down the power across central Florida, a local 7/11 had emergency power. People waited in line for over an hour just to get one cup of coffee. (There were 4 pots going at once, and each person was limited to one cup.) Best coffee we ever had! When the next hurricane hit I made iced coffee the night before, not the same but it saved us from withdrawal symptoms.
