That first morning cup of tea.

Strong black coffee for me with double cream. Could not drink tea. 🤮

Never have liked tea - so black coffee fir me at breakfast, lunch and after dinner.

Black coffee.

After several cups of coffee, PG Tips.

Twynings English Breakfast for me…….while the kettle boils I drink 500ml of water. Perfect way to start the day.

I start the day with black coffee and have several more until the afternoon, when I have a mug of very weak tea with oat milk. I don’t want to taste actual tea so only immerse the tea bag for a moment then reuse it next day. And the day after. I also add cold water to a mug of tea.
The water doesn’t need to boil, just be hottish.
I’m sorry if I’ve disgusted you tea lovers. Go and make a cuppa and you’ll feel better.

The first cup of tea in the morning has to be leaf tea , I’m up at around 7.30 make a pot take meds and watch Breakfast news.
Breakfast at about 8.30 always bran flakes. seeds, fruit and yoghurt. I’m happy to have tea bags fovr the rest of the day , I love fresh coffee but it doesn’t like me unfortunately.

Because I’m taking iron tablets in the morning I, too, can’t have a cuppa on waking. But prior to that I’d already started to have a mug of hot water on waking. And I seem to have switched my cup of tea to a cup of coffee to wake myself up; it’s my only caffeinated drink of the day. If I drink it later I can’t sleep.

Like others, I start my day with water and thyroxine but after that I have a lovely cup of Twinings Breakfast tea with my porridge or toast and peanut butter. I don't like coffee first thing but do have one for elevenses.

Ever since the children were small I love getting up before everyone else, mug of strong tea, once spring arrives will sit outside in the garden listening to the birds and enjoying the peace. In the winter months I would sit in the conservatory where it’s a little warmer looking out onto the garden and listen to the birdsong

Now it’s just myself and DH I still like to get up and have that time to myself before the day starts.

I start my day with the first of my prescription meds, then an hour later MrB brings me my first cup of tea in bed.

Coffee is my first drink .

We rarely sleep past 6am - can't seem to break the habit from working and getting 5 children off to school. One of us will go down and feed the cats and make a pot of tea. We then have 2 mugs (always the same ones) in bed while watching BBC Breakfast and usually get up about 8.

I like a cup of tea as soon as I wake up.
I had a Teasmade for many years but when it stopped working I bought a kettle for my bedroom.
My GD brings my tray with a small teapot, a China mug and a small flask of milk and leaves it on the landing for when I wake up.
I then boil the kettle and make my pot of tea.
It is my regular routine and is bliss.
Two cups of Yorkshire tea and I am ready to face the day.

I get up with the (two) dogs about seven. Kettle on, feed dogs and let them out. Twinings strong english breakfast teabag. Dogs back inside and sit either end of the settee. I sit between them with my mug of tea. Second mug follows about twenty minutes later. Breakfast around thirty minutes later. Bircher muesli ( mixed myself with pear juice the night before) with blueberries, greek yoghurt and home made dukkah. My wife wakes up between 8.30 and 9. I make her tea and take it up. The dogs go too.
Creatures of habit?

First thing is go downstairs make a cuppa take it back to bed and watch the news on my iPad while scrolling other stuff. Once I’m up showered and dressed Winter breakfast is porridge with raspberries Summer it’s Bran Flakes or Shredded Wheat with fruit.
It’s been a cuppa in bed first thing for 30 odd yrs DH and I took it in turns when he was alive. Now I never get brought a lovely hot cuppa in bed.

Because I was spoilt, my mother would wake me up every morning with a cup of tea. I told DH I would only marry him if he would do the same. 58 years later he is still true to his word!

Yorkshire tea for me too with my porridge.
I can then start my day.

Not a tea connoisseur, but I buy decent brands (can’t stand Ringtons) and have 2 big cups to kick off my day, but no breakfast. I drink latte to socialize when I’m out, but other than wine, I don’t drink anything cold.

I like to take a cup of Rooibos tea back to bed for a little while.
I take Thyroxine in the morning so can't drink caffeinated drinks or eat anything until about an hour after that.
Franbern, would you recommend the boiling water tap - is it worth the initial outlay? I've often thought about it.

The first thing I do on waking is go and make a cup of tea, I like it fairly strong, not too much milk and must be in a china mug. I take it back to bed and enjoy it whilst scrolling through the internet.

Once I’m up, showered and dressed I like a cup of coffee. I don’t eat breakfast, my stomach can’t handle food before about 1pm.

The first cup of tea of the day always tastes the best for some reason. I don’t really enjoy it at any other time even though I drink it out of habit and I’ve no preference as to which tea bags.

Nothing like a good mug of tea to start the day. I often accompany it with a slice of toast or a crumpet with butter.
We usually buy Co-op tea bags as DH works there, but at the moment we are drinking tea from the Northumberland tea company as we were gifted a food hamper at Christmas and they were among the goodies.

Strong Yorkshire tea in my special breakfast mug along with a bowl of Bran Buds or All Bran

Rooibos for the rest of the day

No tea for me. Strong black coffee x 2 and an apple or some sort of egg. I was brought up on tea but can’t stand it now. No idea why.

I love my weak and milky morning tea.
Like you, sodapop, pregnancy changed my taste buds and coffee has never tasted the same since that time.

Cup of strong tea with drop of milk. Preferably Barry's Irish teabags.
