I always have an oat latte in the morning, I can survive without it but I find it comforting.

Horlick is a bedtime drink I think :laugh:

Lemon juice in warm water and then tea or coffee depending

I usually have some sort of herbal/fruit tea (or sometimes green tea) in the mornings when it's cold

Cup of tea when I first wake up and then a coffee later in the morning

I switched to that when I read that coffee is more effective a bit later after you wake up rather than first thing

I have a speciality coffee, more so in the autumn winter months, I get boxes of sachets from B and M bargains, only £1.15 or thereabouts and they have lovely flavours. Mint, caramel etc.

They are Jess. There's 6 to 8 sachets in a box depending on the make, some are Nescafe and there's also Kenco. Both good brands.

They are so creamy, and I add a little extra milk.

I have a travel mug which I take in the car with me full.of tea, it hold about 2 and a half cups worth. I do like coffee but find it too harsh in the morning, tea is like a hug in a mug

I do like tea but I have no teabags at the moment, nobody brought me any when they came to visit. :fist:

Sometimes I do. It’s normally one of my Nescafé Mocha sachets (I’m not a big coffee drinker) or a cup of tea if I feel like it otherwise a nice fresh orange juice goes down great in the morning.

I have one coffee per day ( because I read you should have at least one coffee for health reasons )

I have it as soon as I wake up

I love my first coffee of the day.
It’s not the first drink as I have coke at the side of the bed to drink with my first lot of meds.
I only drink decaff so it’s not like I get a hit from it.:laugh:

I just have a tea. I don't mind coffee (black, no sugar for me), but it's never my first choice and it doesn't really do much for me in the sense of giving me a jolt of energy or keeping me awake, etc.

I used to do that on my Early shifts...

Nice cup of strong English Breakfast tea for me...

…I have a decaf coffee first thing in the morning, not even a full cup…that’s the only hot drink that I tend to have in a day …hot drinks really aren’t my thing …

Jessica.

I have caffeine when I wake up and decaff the rest of the day.

I literally cannot function without a cup of tea in the morning, and my stomach feels weird without. I usually like to have a few cups through the day.

Yes a coffee. I use my moka coffee machine.
Old fashioned, but makes great coffee.

Can't start the day without a cup a tea and a fag (that's not a slur at the homosexuals, I'm saying the slang for cigarette in the non authoritarian World)

You're the only one on the entire forum, it seems, good on you. Do you just have a water?

Redway
25-10-2024, 09:41 PM
Tea + an apple first thing and coffee a few hours later is one way to go than you can do a lot worse than. Only problem with me is apple-fruit itself tends to make me nauseous these days, for whatever reason.

Yeah usually go for a glass of water when I get up, it’s probably out of habit tbh

Used as a stimulant and (especially among Igbo Nigerians) for cultural purposes. You don’t take it when you’re trying to sleep, precisely for that stimulant effect. You won’t even take it if you can’t abide a bit of bitterness, because that’s how it tastes. It’s often quite timed in how it’s taken.

Okay, thanks.

I don't think that it would be my kind of thing.
