coffee IS addictive. I used to get by with 1 or 0 cups of coffee, now i must have a MINIMUM of 3 cups. Coffee and a cigarette = best thing ever (but i would like to quit soon)
i like it with milk or hazelnut creamer. I used to use sugar, but i have gotten cynical against Sweet & Low, Splenda, etc.. I heard they give you cancer; while i dont necessarily think they do, that kinda sparked my interest in eating better and taking care of myself.

I'm rarely in bed before 3. (even when I'm not unemployed). Besides, I feel coffee helps me fall into sleep (if I don't drink it, I'm a bit nervous.)

I'm never without coffee. It's 2:48 in the morning, and I'm having a cup right now. Warmth. Life. Universe. Sweet dreams.
Yes, I'm an addict.

I hear the Chinese prize tea that's gotten old
for coffee I like beans with plenty of flavor and hints of chocolate; dark French, and the Ugandan & Ethiopian blends are delicious

Hi,
Doctor told me no more coffee a few years back ... these days I like to mix my own teas from the various health stores I can find ... current favorite is a touch of lapsang souchong, a touch of mint, a touch of chamomile and a touch of english breakfast.
The concoction and invention business is endless. But from any of those Expresso dumps, I usually only get a Decaf of some sort ... and if they don't have the decaf ... goodbye!
American coffee is just colored and flavorless water. I once gave some folks a taste of real Brazilian coffee and he was flying for 8 hours! ... I think he found out that day that he didn't need to do any el dopa!

I'm not much of an expert on coffee blends, as long as it doesn't taste like mud and the beans haven't been burnt to unpalatable bitterness I can drink it. The only thing I can't take is instant - it gives me an instant migrane, though there is no logical reason why it should it just does. A nice thick espresso is probably my favourite, or just a plain black filter that's good and strong - I'll skip all the skinny venti mocha frappacino machiatto latte chantico ristretto velencia con panna with hazle syrup and sprinkles in a dirty cup thanks and just have house filter in a mug, ta.

I really enjoy East African coffees like Kenya AA or Ethopian yirgacheffe.
Also, from my time in Hawaii, "real" Kona coffee (we seem to only get blends where I live) is awesome.

Everytime I try a blend that is not "French Roast" or "Espresso", I end up disappointed. Perhaps I've ruined my taste buds on the darkest blends and can't appreciate the lighter subtle varieties?
What kind of coffee blend is your favorite?

TEA! I drink insane amounts of it, as I don't drink alcohol at all. Tea is the only addiction I have left
