I have learned that SO MANY coffee drinkers don't understand that certain teas have to be brewed at certain temperatures. They take green, black, white, jasmine and brew all of them into boiling water!
Anyways, I do not get this coffee vs tea feud. I drink it all, sometimes even in the same day, and I thank my ancestors for discovering leaf in hot water and bean in hot water both taste good.
That's actually really interesting. I always like a herbal tea but for me black tea always tastes bad unless it has heaps of milk and honey. Maybe I should try boiling it at the right temperature.
Lol. It's a joke. I drink both coffee and tea and enjoy both.
I think I lean slightly more towards coffee but not by much. It's mostly because I like cold drinks and cold coffee seems more normal.
This is so wrong, iced tea is perfectly normal. Iced coffee is an abomination invented by weak minds who forgot their coffee cup on the counter and thought it was somehow good to drink.
I'm joking of course, but cold coffee will label you a freak where I'm from.
I literally made myself a fresh cup of coffee and also a fresh cup of tea this morning. No ragrets
Hot bean juice > hot leaf juice.
Beans.
Yeah, so, coffee beans are not actually beans by the way. They're the pit of the coffee berry.
Someone saw this:
...and decided absolutely not am I brewing a tea from that. I'll pit them and then throw the pits into a fire and then I'll brew a ~~tea~~ coffee with that.
I think it was more, they chewed the leaves for a subtle caffeine high and one day they chewed the pits and got a way less subtle caffeine high and realized they were more potent. Roasting probably got introduced to the process much later.
I like my morning cup of bean soup
Make it a soy vanilla latte and you got a three-bean* soup going on.
*If you ignore that coffee "beans" are actually seeds and that most cafés use articial vanilla-flavouring.
Coffee: Because the burnt out crust of society needs burnt crustiness in their water.
Hey you can enjoy a light roast.
