What is your favorite morning beverage?

Caffeine

hot tea--preferably English tea (not icky Twinings English breakfast---strong English tea like Waitrose Gold or M & S)

Coffee or hot chocolate, depending on my mood.

Tea usually, but I like coffee a lot, too.

Dr. Pepper or sweet iced tea, depending on my mood.

It can't depend on your mood, it was depending on my mood!

Coffee or hot chocolate.

MILK!!!

Coca Cola.

I heard it's so acidic that they use it to clean washrooms and toilets.

Grape juice.

Green Tea. or
Coffee Milkshake.

The skim milk with my cereal. I also chug down 16 ounces of water first thing afterwards....

Water.
Tea.

Coffee! I'm having some right now. I had a little bout of insomnia last night. It is 1:45 PM, and I'm just finishing my first cup of coffee...I'm on to my second one now. I just got up and got it.

My favorite is pop (soda, soda pop), but I rarely drink it anymore. I mostly drink water or Propel (a flavored water made by Gatorade).

Yum...coffee milkshakes! Try the caramel frappuccino at Starbuck's. It's the bomb!

I rarely have a morning beverage or breakfast for that matter, but if I do it's V-8 juice served ice cold.

I would've taken care of any NW or Nitpick votes last night, but I left work late and didn't get home till 2 o'clock in the fudging morning so if this survey is missing something you wanted, TOO BAD! I NEEDED SLEEP! By the way, I'm awake now.

BTW, I like orange juice in the mornings.

A Brisk nesstee. Its my favorite beverage regardless of the time of day.

Coffee followed by Coke

I would like it to be multipick (the crowd yells :" you could say it in qual!!!" ):
I need a glass of cool water.
I like to drink my tea.

Coffee I guess, since it's so much more readily available in the US than the Brazilian herb guaraná. But my coffee has to be "doctored." I like vanilla and lots of milk, and chocolate and cinnamon are nice too. I do like my caffeine fix in the a.m. and throughout the day until at least 1 p.m. or so.

Coffee is my favorite but isn't always available to me every morning. Usually, I drink chocolate milk or skip the whole breakfast/morning thing and go right to a cold can or bottle of Coke.

tea

Tea, my day doesn't start until after I've had my cup of tea.

Water is the only thing that I can get down me before about 11am. I don't eat breakfast.

Water, water everywhere........There a storm going off

I wonder if I should turn the computer off?

Hee, hee, hee - a man just walked past with his dogs - he must have been off up in the fields walking them when it started to rain. He's wearing summer clothes and doesn't have a coat

Oh shoot! Stop raining!!! Or there goes my evening.......

Is guarana the same as yerba mate or terere?

Milk! (Got it?)

Yeah, but by the sounds of it, you need your coffee. Here:

Well, no I think it's a different herb but it still has the substance caffeine in it! I have heard of both yerba maté and tereré. Guarana is from herbal berries that grow in tropical countries, especially Brazil. I have had really good experiences with this herb for many years. It kind of stays with you when you really need it and, for some people, doesn't make you really jumpy and nervous like coffee does... It is good for constipation also. It is very good for energy. I have heard that Native Brazilians used to use the herb to allay hunger pains. I am obviously a big guaraná fan and am happy to see it being contained in more and more various sports and energy drinks these days.

Tim Horton's Coffee

Water... I can't have OJ anymore *sniffle*

Mate and terere are the same thing--mate is hot and terere is cold. Terere has got to be the most refreshing thing ever; it's perfect on a hot summer day. There's no caffeine in it, but it has some other stimulant, so it's good for getting going in the morning, too. Have you been to South America?

Is he on the run again?

who?

OJ.

Sorry, I didn't sleep last night so I've gone a bit crazy.......

Nice to see you back here

I never knew I was so loved

Thanks for the explanation of maté and tereré. Oh, I read someplace that maté *does* have caffeine in it. I have not been to America do Sul but I feel I probably lived in Brasil in a past life, specifically Rio. And you?

I've visited Chile and Paraguay. It was in Paraguay that I really got turned on to mate/terere (which definitely doesn't have caffeine in it, although it could be mixed with regular tea, I suppose)--they drink it all the time there.

Ah, HA -- Paraguai (as it is spelled in Brazil). I heard the name terere mentioned in an old Brazilian country music (caipira) song by Tonico & Tinoco called "Coisas do Paraguai." I'd read about maté because I am interested in herbs (grow a few myself).

Yeah, I think they call it terere in Brazil, too. A friend brought me back some yerba mate from Rio, and the word terere was on the bag.

Some kind of juice, lemonade or a V-8. I'm not a coffee drinker.

That icon looks more like a pint of Guinness than anything else.Or is just me?

Hm. Interesting. It's an animation that is designed to appear just how you would need it to appear - to reveal to each individual what their choice of a.m. beverage would be.
Guinness beer, eh? Are we "tipping" them a smidge early these days?

Haha. Yes, you're right, I should have used my "cup of coffee body dip" smiley for that occasion.

It's really good! You simply must try it. It's a bit of coffee [about a teaspoon of instant coffee] & some scoops of vanilla coffe with a little milk. Put it in a blender[I'm lazy so I just mix it by hand] & enjoy.

Thanks for the info. If I ever see it anywhere I'm now gonna want to try it for myself.

Enjoy!

YUMMY

Had some last night for desert while celebrating David & I's 22nd wedding anniversary.

Even cooked the ENTIRE meal by myself.

**shocked look**
I was so dang organized(for the first time in my life while cooking) I STILL can't believe it!

I blew my own mind!!!!

**hands you a tall frosty glass of coffee milk shake**

Thsnks for the delicious milkshake! Congratulations to you and David on your anniversary! I hope you have many more happy years together!

THANK YOU!!!! (((((hugs)))))

I finally got the FOOD CHANNEL & that's all I've been watching for the past 6 days now! I just love it!! That's why I haven't been at SC for quiet a while. **hangs head in shame**

The only thing I like to watch on the food channel is "Unwrapped." But my aunt tells me in boring detail all about the Italian lady on there.

Well,for me it's like having a new toy & everything is so interesting to me. I like Emeril,Wolfgang Puck,Unwrapped,911 & a couple more. They have this one guy that has red hair & speaks fluent Italian.I'll probably grow tired of it in a couple of months but,for now it's entertainment.

cool...eating is very entertaining to me

I know! I've been totally inspired to cook like the pros. David said,"Why do you watch this cooking thing,your not even taking notes!"

I have a photgraphic memory......yeah right!

me, too!

You have a photographic memory too? WOW! We need to get together.


HEY you! You just made it 6 again. DON'T answer this one either. Or I'll never get out of here.

Yep...hey, almost ready to go chat

This becoming a looooooooooooooongggggggggggggggg 20 minutes.

refuses to reply, because she is anxious to chat

I'll stop replying too, Dabbs.

I just realized I've been holding you up too!

No more though.

Promise.

What? What? I am reminded of that cute commercial of the old couple talking about how they used to skinny dip when the weather got to hot. & the old man would say "What? What?" "Oh Rose!" His bewildered look is the cutest thing at the end of the commercial. I love that! Their so cute!


You aren't holding me up silly boi! Jules wanted to go to chat with me at 7:00pm (that was hours & hours ago).So I told her not to reply to me anymore or I would never be able to go to chat with her.

How come you never go to chat?

Check you out with the use of bold!
*wipes away tears of pride and joy, then...lets them stream freely down his (crusty) cheeks* ha!

I know HUH!!!! Ain't it cool???
I feel like a kid in a candy store right now.

You don't have crusty cheeks silly boi! Your handsome!!

**hands you a mirror**
See??? Your a very handsome dude!!

Okay! That's enough!
**rips her trusty mirror out of your sweaty hands**

Wow! Have you shown Dino what new trick you can do yet!?!?!

I haven't seen him around here yet. Is he even back at SC yet??

You kidding? He's all over the place by now! (This is probably an old note from you, huh? I'm sure you guys have bumped into each other by now...?)

coffee

I see Guiness too.

juice and coffee, maybe a bit of water....yum.

Yes we have! I was in the survey where you taught Biggles how to scroll marquee in color! Wow! She is good!!

A double espresso, extra strong.

Ice Tea

I can't get through the morning without my coffee!

I chose soda, or as we call it, "pop". Nothing like something cold and full of caffeine first thing in the morning!

Brit?
