    Anyway, my answer is the same as over there. I love tea, and will drink whatever type of tea we have in the house (normally something like pg tips), I drink that with hardly any milk and no sugar. I really don't like coffee, except Irish, which I hope I don't need to explain what that is.

    I find the idea of hot drinks bizarre. Liquid should be cool and refreshing...

    I normally drink fruit juice/soft drinks.

    Warm Drinks are drunk in hot countries because if your drink is to cold it gives you the Sh!ts.

    I'm a big tea drinker myself, usually nice and milky with a little bit of sugar. I find it quite calming mixed like that, none of that annoying 'wake up!!' effect strong tea has. No fancy blends; I just drink whatever is in the house ... Tetley or PG tips usually.

    I've never liked coffee, not even the fabled coffee smell. It turns my stomach a wee bit.

    No hot drinks thread is right without the third in the triumvirate! Hot chocolate is either lovely or foul. Thick, creamy chocolate, not too sweet and not all cruddy at the bottom is a delight. Very sweet hot chocolate is an abomination. Hot chocolate with freakish flavours like mint or caramel is an abomination. Any chocolate which has any substance resembling sand, tar, or general slime at the bottom of the mug is evil. Adding a dollop of real whipped cream (not anything which squirts out of a tin!) to the top of the mug so it slowly melts into the drink does not gain bonus points with the frog, however it is generally appreciated. Anyone putting wafers in my drink will be glared at. Hot chocolate which is not actually hot is a crime of the first order.

    Mmmm...tea. Nothing like PG tips with a bit of milk. Even better served lukewarm. It looks like tea has won by a very large majority.

    I wouldn't describe a crumpet as a cake, more a type of bready thing. Generally, people toast them and spread butter on top.
