Cup o' Joe and Tea Too

[Ladies-Eight]

Think I'll stick with tea for a few days. I'm burnt out on coffee after 40+ years.

If you drink like I do You'll want some heavy whipping cream. It really enhances the flavor.

Nope, just a spoonful of sugar and I'm good to go! Kind of like iced-tea but hot. LOL

Yes. I do make my own. I have even given it as Christmas presents.

Is your recipe for spiced tea a secret? If it's not, would you mind sharing it? (If it is, that's ok.)

I guess you don't get burned out on things quickly

I'll do hot tea in the afternoon sometimes for a change but need that Cup O Joe for the morning.

Good morning everybody! Fresh pot of coffee brewing for anyone who still drinks it.

I love a cup of coffee in the morning. I used to drink it all day long, but now just a cup or two will do. I've gone through phases. In the beginning it had to be Folgers, but then I discovered Starbuck's and from there went on to grinding my own beans from Starbuck's. We are now drinking San Francisco French Roast, because the Starbuck's beans never taste as fresh to me. I need to find a local roaster. We had those in Iceland and oh my goodness, that was good. I've used percolators, drip makers, French press and pour overs. I've tried the single service ones, like Keurig, at friend's houses. In the end, I have settle on this Bunn drip system that I have now used for the last couple decades, although I sometimes pull out a French press, because it is such a rich, dark flavor. Oh, and espresso, cappuccino, latte maker. Have to have one of those on hand. It's almost time to pull it out for the winter.

my brother in law is a coffee person like you!! I just like a cup in the morning, and prefer tea the rest of the day--green tea or herbal no milk or sugar

I make a fair share of the coffee here at Cup O Joe, but at home, DH makes most of the coffee and all of the espresso. We call it Hebrews coffee.

I got a random care package today with three tea pots and a mug! I am set for winter now for sure. Thanks so much!

I don't have any secret recipes. I will share any and all I have if needed. I'll pull it up and add it for you.
