Wedgy 1,350 Posted October 7, 2019 24 minutes ago, Faeding said: I like this a lot >.> but I think the reason its considered dehydrating is that caffeine is a vaso restrictor making your blood vessels smaller carrying less oxygen and and water? Could be 100% wrong though None of the above! As @Endynyp pointed out, coffee and tea are not dehydrating as they do by principle contain some amount of water in them. If you're feeling dehydrated when you drink caffeine, the culprit is not what you are drinking, but rather what you are not drinking. Simply put, despite containing some amount of water, any beverage that isn't water doesn't have enough to fill your tank, so to speak. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
KeyDee 33 Posted October 9, 2019 Simple, I'd choose Coffee. I haven't tried tea in my life, how does it even taste? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's like wine, it comes in different varietals, and production factors like terrior, leaf selection, and processing can have an enormous influence on taste. Simply put, there is such an enormous variety that I can assure you that there is a tea for nearly everyone. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Serge heartless 150 Posted October 10, 2019 it depends on the coffee and tea, mostly making tea is a pain if you make it yourself. Coffee I can make it taste good with the right creamer. Also cold brew coffee taste better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You probably have heard of protons, electrons etc. right? There are also 'anti-particles' for those such as anti-protons and anti-electrons. Reading your post, as someone who doesn't drink coffee, I really thought that in this respect you are an anti-version of me or vice versa Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mikeyboy636 1 Posted October 19, 2019 Always coffee, black, no sugar no milk, the closer to road tar the better Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
leinwandname 143 Posted October 19, 2019 Varies. There are times where I drink more coffee (black, without milk or sugar) and times when I drink more tea (usually Early Grey or some kind of Green Tea). I think I drink more tea during winter - somehow that kinda established itself as my holidays beverage of choice. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
IIVIsouljam 125 Posted January 7 (edited) Avid tea drinker! I've gotten to the point where I dry my own herbs. Although, I only drink hot tea. I drink coffee too but not as much as tea. Recently I've been hitting the coffee a lot more, just trying to get some energy. Making a cup right as I came across this. Spooky!

Kohloo 979 Posted January 10 I think I'd have to say tea. I used to enjoy some coffee every now and then (like, no more than a few times every several months), but these days I don't have any desire to touch the stuff. Even tea though, I don't drink as often lately. Buuuuut, I do have a collection of tea sets and teapots, so even though I don't drink tea "as often," I still drink it pretty regularly haha!

TigerLily 15 Posted February 4 I prefer the taste of tea, especially when the teabags has sat for some time so it's nice and strong, but I find coffee is better at keeping my mind sharp. I used to hate coffee, but i guess it's true the older you are the more you appreciate bitter tastes. Herbal teas are best before bed as they are so calming I grew a liking to Rose tea in particular. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
