Yes.

I love both, but usually black, occasionally herbal.

You are gonna LOVE that Jim Dandy! I get tons of compliments when I play out with mine. Used it for the 2018 & 2019 Cincinnati Blues Challenge. (No 2020 Challenge due to the virus.) Have fun!

I can still hear Jean Luc Picard's voice ... "Earl Grey". I have no idea about teas or how it differs from black tea but it's burned into my head.

If it's tea, it's Earl Grey; if it's coffee, it's either Seattle's Best Post Alley extra dark or a freshly ground French Roast.

This thread is killing me! I’m on a temporary restricted diet due to some stomach issues. No coffee (or spicy foods, tomato products, fried foods, chocolate....you know, all the good stuff that makes life worth living?)

Been drinking Tazo English Breakfast tea for the past 11 days. I enjoy tea so it’s not really a hardship, but the smell of the coffee brewing (I always make the morning coffee so my wife can smell it when she comes down) is tough.

And the donuts pictured? Don’t even start!!

Maybe, but they also are deep-fried in hydrogenated veggie oil and contain highly processed white flour. Good times.

Cup of coffee to pop my eyes open. During the work week peanut butter on toast or an english muffin. On the weekends I usually have 2 eggs with cheese on a sesame bagel. Washed down with another cup of coffee and a bottle of water.

Had my morning AND my afternoon coffee Dru. Now at gym (looking at AGF between exercices which is a very bad habit...!).

Then home with takeaway for me and the kids (wife on a trip with colleagues) in front of a cool film!

Hope you’re well my friend.

I switched from coffee to tea a year or two ago for the same reason. Without overdoing it, I used to love coffee so much that the idea of not being able to drink it was a little frightening. It turns out that giving it up made all the difference to my stomach, and it’s not so hard to do without it, so don’t despair if your temporary problem turns chronic.

Agreed. I would have been better off seeing pickles

I'm making my last trip to the bathroom and going back to bed for a while longer about that time. My wife is a coffee snob and i go along for the ride. I don't like bad coffee, I just don't know what is good coffee. She takes care of that for me. Weekend plans. Saturday is date night. We get all dressed up, maybe go for a ride, then go down to the bar in the basement, mix up some fancy drinks and watch a concert on the big screen down there. That has been our big nite out for almost a year.

Earl Grey is a black tea infused with bergamot.

In STNG it was always "Earl Grey, Hot."
Then in the new Piccard series the much older Captain says "Earl Grey, Decaff."

Oh, and I'm on freshly ground organic Scandinavian blend. Med-Dark. Yummy! My wife has got me to switch from Coffeemate creamer to Soy milk. Took a little getting used to. Bran flakes cereal.
The days of a plate full of donuts are LONG gone!
