"you dont have to be tall to see the moon" - african proverb
tea, without a doubt, but only ordinary 'english' tea - have tried many fruit and herb teas and not yet found one I particularly like. They all smell wonderful, yet for some reason taste largely of nothing - maybe I just don't brew them right
I found the chocolate almond milk . Wegmans sells it, a supermarket chain with an impressive health food section. Thanks Artichoke for telling me about that stuff and for sending me my first taste .Artichoke47
My preference is normally coffee but haven't had any since May 2003. I'll have an occasional herbal tea or hot chocolate but still miss my coffee .
Tea for me, please!
Chamomile, or Echinacea and Raspberry, or, my favourite, 'Pukka' Love Tea, which is gorgeous.
I try to avoid all caffeine as it gives me heart palpitations.
Don't have a favorite hot beverage.
Unless drinking hot soup counts...
Mmm, herbal tea!

I used to drink green tea for the antioxidants - then I realised that the caffiene was making me have anxiety attacks - they have stopped since I stopped drinking it. I have started having chamomile before bed to help me sleep - I don't like it though. I am not a fan of hot beverages - never have been - Actually I am a bad drinker altogether. I have to make myself drink even just water everyday, even if I am thirsty I don't bother. Don't know why. Not even juice or anything.
i guess i should answer this too lol. mine is hot chocolate

I like a soy mocha as a treat every now and then.
Foxytina - I just KNEW you were a Hot Chocolate girl!

The warm drink of choice in Brisbane at the moment is any water that's not straight out of the fridge!
For a hot drink, I'm hooked on coffee.
I favour a hot soyaccino when I'm out, at home it's cocoa, but not every day.

Geoffrey, I keep on telling you, Coffee is evil!Geoff
So am I!PinkFluffyCloud
Neither of the choices above, Mulled Wine at the moment, not much though only a few pints a night
Go confidently in the direction of your dreams
Black tea!
I tried green tea and I find it didn't taste like any thing. Maybe I'm not brewing it right, but oh well.
I love "normal" tea so much. I drink it every day.
i voted for coffee because i drink quite a lot of it (Fairtrade and organic of course!! ) i do like a soyaccino when i'm out and although i'm quite sensitive to caffeine it's kinda hard to give up, especially on cold, dark winter mornings! i managed to avoid it most of the summer though
i like black tea occasionally, and i've got more into herbal teas - like you Ruby i always thought they tasted of nothing. recently though i've found Pukka's Soothing chamomile and fennel very nice. i think you need to find the right one for you.

I looooove coffee but only have it as a treat. The caffiene does me no favors.
You forgot green tea!
Chocolate is tasty, but I prefer tea because there is so much sugar in chocolate..
I like to mix different teas, it's usually 3 or 4 different ones, and most of the time I mix green and black.

I feel bad when I drink coffee, a little "dizzy" feeling. I guess it's the caffeine.

i make my hot chocolate homemade with organic cocoa and i only use a teaspoon of organic sugar.

i love pondering my collection dried herbs i'm building and selecting combos for tea. it's almost spiritual for me. and warm weather means all sorts of yummy helpful plants are growing. here i ought to say thanks to the people (and books) who have lent me their knowledge on this subject. tea makes me so freakin happy!!!!!
i used to love coffee but if i have caffene lately i get sooo wound up and anxious
I have a cup of tea in bed every morning while watching "Everybody Loves Raymond"
In the day I have traditonal (black) tea, or coffee: heat the soya milk in the microwave for 40 seconds, foam it up with £1 battery operated coffee frother, add coffee and dust with cocoa/icing sugar mix, feel dizzy.
I have redbush tea in the evening so as not to disturb my sleep any more.
The only herbal tea I like is the Himalaya range of ayuravedic teas cos they have lots of warm spices in like cinnamon. Sadly I never drink water, I wonder if thats really bad.
Soy chocolate milk, by Alpro , yummy!
I love that, but mostly I drink black coffee with sugar.(at the office)
I try to switch to tea again cause I drink too much coffee during the day and I notice it's not good for me.
chai tea.....ahhhh. and i love wegmans store too!
My favourite is Green and Blacks Hot Chocolate . Mmmmmm chocolate.
I recently tried some Whole Earth Wake Cup , with Organic Barley, Organic Malt, Organic Chicory, Organic Rye, Guarana, and Organic Figs. Great name but didn't like the taste.
I can't live without Peppermint tea, Earl Grey, and liquorice/mint infusion ! yum-yum ! ^^
One day, I'll die from an Asian junk food overdose ! lol
Maya Gold hot chocolate. This is from the Green and Blacks website.
I may be talking to myself now as everyone has rushed to the shops.you'll feel the tiny bits of organic orange peel infuse their zesty flavour, creating a cocoa-rich and aromatic drink
Gert, do you make your Green & Blacks hot choc with milk? i tried it a while ago and used water, and it wasn't nice. i guess i'd better use milk next time. i've never seen Maya Gold hot choc, but if i ever do i'm definitely buying it.
i'm so much more into herbal tea than i used to be. Pukka's Love tea is nice (thanks for the tip PFC) and i've been drinking green tea with ginseng in the mornings to wake me up as i seem to be really sensitive to coffee all of a sudden, it's been giving me palpitations.

Fruit tea. With so many flavours I could never get bored.
It used to be tea with milk, but I can't quite get used to it without or with soya milk. Not that I could imagine drinking it with greasy cows milk again. Yuk, the thought repulses me.
I noticed yesterday the health food shop by me has started selling Green & Blacks Maya Gold hot chocolate. Thats it, I'm sold

I'm a very paranoid and anxious person, so I lay off the caffeine nowadays. I adore chocolate drinks. Lately I've been making cocoa but I think I'll buy some of Green & Blacks Maya Gold next time I go shopping I think there is caffeine in chocolate but nowhere near as much as coffee or coke.
Soya hot chocolate! YUM!
I love soybean drink. You get these little sachets and just add boiling water. They're yummy!

Green and Blacks drinking choc, made with soya milk, yummy!!!!!
mmmm, i'm with paradoxsund.
for me it's chai, hands down. i don't drink any of that other stuff.
coffee. coffee, coffee!
Toddy/Warm Lemonade is my #1!
I also like broth soups, hot chocolate & tea.
Anything with caffeine!
I really like tea, which has proved a problem since one of my New Year's resolutions was to give up caffeine. I've tried drinking decaffinated tea but I'm sure it still contains some because I still feel a slight 'buzz' from drinking it. It's frustrating because my body reacts quite strongly to caffeine and I crave it a LOT. But I still really like the taste of tea with a little sweetened soy milk.
There’s a statue that the abattoir erected to remind us all of their contributions. To me it marks Potemkin City Limits, this Francis cast in bronze.
None of the above, just ordinary tea not too strong, with soya milk (I would not drink it black), and either sugar or artificial sweetener (some of them contain lactose so I take care to only get the vegan ones even though I know they are not healthy).
I have a warm beverage for all occasions:
*Dr Stuart's Apple and Ginger tea at work in the morning to warm my vocal chords up before I teach
*Roobois with soy for any time of day
*Black decaf filter coffee if I fancy it
*Mexican Choco spice tea with soy milk to get me off to sleep
*Green and Black's Hot Chocolate as a treat, or for a chocolate fix that's healthier than a bar of chocolate
*A choice of Nettle, Raspberry Leaf, Chamomile&Limeflower, Lemon&Ginger and Rasberry&Echninacea for a change
My current favourite is a Liquorice Tea recommended by Pob of this fair Hamlet.
Rooibos is a good day to day Tea as Decaf is a bit flavourless.
Soy milk in both.
I do love the idea of those different flavours of hot chocolate - "Options" they are called, but the silly thing is they are not vegan.
I can see no reason why they cannot be easily made vegan, I would be a big fan if they were.
I don't like herbal teas much, I've tried a few and they are too much of an acquired taste for me, so I am not very adventurous with these things.
Not fond of coffee really either. I tend to be more fussy about hot drinks than I am about food.
Kaluha with hot water!
Well done, it would take a lot of vegans demanding it though!
I might try contacting the company, I do from time to time in this situation (haven't with Options yet though)
