I work from home. I keep a coffee maker next to me most of the day in the corner. As it's 11am and i'm about to brew my second pot of the day, i'm wondering, how much coffee do you all drink?

Do not particular care for Coffee. However, if talk about tea. I am at about 2 or 3 mugs (usually decaf) a day. Each mug is about 2 coffee cups.

do you drink black, green, herbal or other... tea that is, not coffee.
I love tea as well, my favorite is blackberry sage black tea from the republic of tea.

Black tea. Either plain, Earl Gray, Plantation Mint, or Lemon Tea. Usually it is Decaf.

I pour over 4 cups of coffee at work, but I sometimes take a few sips out of my cup and then let it sit until it gets cold.

The very best flavored coffee I've ever had is buttered pecan coffee.

I am not too bad. Generally I don't drink coffee unless I have it in hot cocoa or with eggnog. However, there are those days... hehe!

I have 2 or 3 a day. I like it in the morning but, in the evening it's nice especially on a chilly evening.

I hate coffee. But I drink up to 3 or 4 cups of tea a day usually, especially at work. Keeps me going. Oh, and only black tea. I'm not really an herbal fan. Only peppermint when I have a stomachache.

And some of that "goodnight" tea with no caffeine once in a while. (chamomile) Regular tea is the best.

I tried to give up coffee for Christmas but that only lasted about a half a day. Tried several times with similar results.

Usually about half a dozen -- strong and black. But I never developed a taste for "designer" coffee drinks.

I drink three cups of coffee a day which I prepare myself at home. ( I am retired) . Then I follow this with about a teapotful of tea a day, usually at lunchtime. In mid afternoon I sometimes, but not today, have another mug of tea, with milk and sweetener added.

Coffee I hear has more caffeine in it than tea, and to get that extra boost of energy in the morning I need coffee.

United we coffee adicts stand, divided we fall... isn't there something in scripture about a house that is divided against itself cannot stand?

Oh well, it is evening, time to eat, and perhaps snooze....zzz. zzz.

I drink 2 cups in the morning. Very strong.
More than that and I get nauseated.
I like a de-caf in the evening sometimes.
I once tried to cold turkey from coffee and got the worst 3 day headache of my life!

THe coffee maker starts grinding and brewing at 530am and does not stop till about 8pm..in that time I will drink at least 5, 12-cup pots of coffee and the hubby will drink maybe 2-3 cups of coffee.

Also ee do not drink de-caf

only "fully leaded" as my DH would say.

We have a wonderful coofee maker. Grinds the beans and makes the coffee. Already ground coffee and starting with the beans is no comparison. We get the coffee maker ready after dinner dishes, set the automatic timer and enjoy fresh brewed in the morning. WOW!!!

Love and peace

Erm, I measure my coffee consumption in pots (50oz pots). I drink about 1-1/2 pots/day.
