It is rare that I have come across a person who never drinks any tea or coffee, but I am actually one of the rare ones: I never drink tea or coffee. I'm just not one for hot drinks, unless it's hot chocolate with marshmellows and cream on the top. But I mostly go for cold drinks.

Who else here drinks tea or coffee, or are there some Aspies out there who are like me?

I drink both...with coffee its more for the caffeine than the taste that I am after, but if I do drink coffee I like it black just like my metal :lol: and I don't usually put anything in my tea except LSD, lol just joking the heat from the tea would just destroy the LSD.

I used to be a total caffeine addict, was probably in danger of seriously hurting myself. I cut caffeine out for 6 months, then just drank a couple of strong cups in the morning. Later on I eliminated wheat from my diet, and I noticed that made me much more sensitive to caffeine; the 2 strong cups became too much. Now I drink only 2 cups regular or 1 cup strong. I drink tea also, but only herbal tea (cold brewed and served chilled).

I drink both moderately, originally i prefer tea but my low blood pressure needs one cup of coffee immediately after getting up and another one after lunch. Although there are medis for low bp i prefer the coffee and think my daily two cups won't cause any harm. The rest is Earl Grey.

Both. I prefer tea but I do drink black coffee in the morning. Caffeine worsens my insomnia so I drink herbal tea past noon :coffee: Apart from sparkling water, I do not drink fizzy drinks.

I drink coffee at work, but at home and to see my through the night I have a pint of cold water with about 5% Cider Vinegar, its really supposed to be good for you and I like the taste, its a little bit like cider but without getting you drunk.
But just the other day I tried something that makes it even better, a splash of Tequila, you wont notice it to get drunk, it just adds a certain extra something to the refreshing taste.

Though I'm more likely to drink coffee, I love tea as well.

I love my tea.

I used to be a HUGE fan of coffee - I was given it regularly as a toddler to help chest problems from TB, got so used to it I'd have it stronger than anyone else I've ever known. After I quit smoking I just lost the taste for it, yet to find a coffee fresh or instant that tastes right any more.
