Tea. But I love coffee as well. And no sugar or milk, which goes for both.

Must include creamer at work (otherwise it tastes like crude oil) but at home I grind the beans fresh and drink it black as night. Tea's okay but not in the same buzz category.

Seconded   ! Personally speaking, I prefer the taste of good tea, and for years I drank it much more often than coffee. Nowadays, I need coffee to wake me up in the morning and after lunch - I never have coffee later in the afternoon, let alone after dinner.

I'm Brasilian and I'm supposed to prefer coffee, no? But I do like more tea, well, not those Asian teas but the real ones from our continent, made with erva-mate or yerba-mate, that may be taken cold, warm or hot (depending on the type).
Not sure but I think that matte rivals coffee here in Terra Brasilis.

Coffee because it's merely bad, not horrible.

My opinion switches but generally I prefer coffee. Haven't been drinking much lately since I have insomnia anyway so even when there is nothing to do I usually only get a maximum 6-7 hours of sleep, sometimes a lot less. I almost always have it with at least cream, sometimes sugar too if I feel like it, and cinnamon if I want to be really fancy. We have a pretty nice coffee machine, although if it were up to me we'd get less comercialized brands but it's still quite good.
I like most t ypes of tea, usually hot. Green tea is great, I never even tried putting cream or sugar in it though. I drink a lot of chai too and usually I put cream in it, sometimes sugar. Splenda is a pretty good substitute, sweet & low and equal are disgusting.
