Coffee, water, tea, milkshake, milk or anything else that's interesting?

Kefir then tea

MiniMoon Thu 05-Oct-23 17:45:49

I start every day with a cup of tea.

Whitewavemark2 Thu 05-Oct-23 17:56:18

Tea, orange juice and coffee

Hot water with a slice of fresh lemon and manuka honey.

Decaf tea , two big mugs

MrsKen33 Thu 05-Oct-23 18:07:28

Tea first thing ,in bed. Coffee later on.

Half a litre of cold water, followed by coffee.

A very hot cup of tea in a china mug is a must for me at about 6am followed by a few cups of coffee during the morning.

Builders Tea. Then Earl Grey until I run out, then back to Builders.

What we call Lemon Tea but is actually lemon peel with boiling water poured over it, in a bone China mug. Have one or two and then black decaffeinated coffee later in the morning. Usually have a Lemon Tea again after lunch. Otherwise drink water.

Water on waking, followed in bed by a very hot cup of baby tea in a china mug, brought by DH.
A second cup with breakfast.

A cup of Yorkshire tea with skimmed milk. Hate creamy tea.

A cup of coffee after my oatmeal, then later a small glass of orange juice with my vitamins.

I also make hibiscus tea , let it cool, and sip it as my water for the day. It has health benefits, and I'm not a fan of just plain water.

Chocolatelovinggran Thu 05-Oct-23 19:41:29

Gin - obviously...

Redrobin51 Thu 05-Oct-23 19:42:02

I have a small glass of orange juice and then a cup of tea. Couldn't face coffee first thing, I find tea more thirst quenching.

Grandmadinosaur Thu 05-Oct-23 19:44:46

I have water with my meds. Then a decaf tea whilst in bed. Mint tea once I’m up and about.

Cabbie21 Thu 05-Oct-23 19:56:44

Tea, not necessarily strong but very black- very little milk, two sweeteners. At least four more during the day, plus water or orange squash.

Poppyred Thu 05-Oct-23 20:20:15

You would have to pay me a LOT to drink tea 🤮

Jaxjacky Thu 05-Oct-23 20:24:16

A large glass of water then a large mug of Yorkshire tea, s/s milk, no sugar, two further mugs of tea in the morning, water in the afternoon.

lixy Thu 05-Oct-23 20:33:02

Mine's a coffee please, dash of milk, no sugar. Our alarm still goes off at getting up for work time - 5.45 am - and it's a daily luxury to have coffee in bed, no need to get up before dawn these days. smile

rafichagran Thu 05-Oct-23 20:45:11

Water,then a mug of tea with milk, that first cup of tea is the best one of the day.

Shinamae Thu 05-Oct-23 20:52:40

I fast from 10 pm till 12 pm the following day so in the morning I have a big glass of soda water and lime …

LadyGracie Thu 05-Oct-23 21:24:23

A big mug of builders strength tea.

3dognight Thu 05-Oct-23 21:27:45

Ringtons Northumberland or Breakfast blend loose leaf. A very good start to the day, drunk in bed.
Other teas are available. But I am lucky that I have a Ringtons van delivery.brew

SachaMac Thu 05-Oct-23 22:53:09

Ringtons tea for me too with a dash of skimmed milk and a sweetener.
I have a coffee mid morning when I get back from the dog walk.
