Default Coffee, tea but not me

As I sit at my computer this morning with my cup of Joe/Java I am wondering -- do more people drink coffee for their morning picker-upper or do they drink tea.
I drink regular coffee in the morning, and decaf at night ( never ever Postum). My wife drinks "a nice" cup of tea. Our children, who have a morning beverege, drink cofee.

I start the day with a couple of cups of strong tea. During the day I migrate to coffee. In the evening I go back to tea.

Had my last cup of coffee in March of last year. I drink two cups of Chamomile tea a day.

For me, it's a nice cup of tea.
Growing up in an Irish household, there was always a pot of tea on the table.
I didn't even taste coffee until I was in my late twenties. I have never liked coffee and still don't drink it.
My husband, on the other hand, drinks a cup of very strong coffee every morning.

Never drink coffee, do not like it, also do not like to drink hot liquids. I usually drink pop and when I drink tea, it is Ice Tea

2 cups of Hazelnut coffee in tha AM. Tea at night.

I believe, tea contains more caffeine.

Enough sleep for me, usually helps too!!!!!

Family jokes that I drink so much coffee that if I give blood the person who got my unit would get a caffeine buzz.
