Alright, friends, we need to settle this once and for all: Coffee vs. Tea—the ultimate showdown of hot beverages!
Now, before we begin, let me just say, I respect both camps. I’m Switzerland in this battle. But, if I’m being honest, my mornings are powered by coffee...or as I call it, liquid consciousness. Without it, I’d probably walk into a wall on my way to the kitchen. I mean, if “death before decaf” were a club, I’d be the president. Coffee gives me that "you can conquer the world" vibe—until it wears off, and then I’m just curled up in a blanket questioning my life choices.
But wait, the tea drinkers are here, sipping peacefully with their pinkies up like, “Oh, you’re jittery from your third cup of coffee? That’s adorable. I’ve been zen since 7 AM, darling.” They speak like they’ve found inner peace, while I’m over here looking like a squirrel that’s just discovered espresso.
Tea people act like their beverage is some kind of magic potion that cures everything. Feeling stressed? Tea. Got a headache? Tea. World-ending apocalypse? “Have you tried chamomile?” Meanwhile, coffee drinkers know exactly what they’re signing up for. We’re fully aware that our beloved brew might give us the energy to do ten things at once but forget what we were actually supposed to do in the first place.
But let’s not forget the fancy names each side throws around. Coffee drinkers? Oh, we’ll hit you with a venti caramel macchiato with two pumps of hazelnut, like we’re performing some kind of caffeinated spell. And tea drinkers are no better! “I’ll have an organic matcha with a hint of bergamot and a whisper of lavender.” A whisper? Is your tea possessed?
At the end of the day, I think we all just want the same thing—to survive adulthood. Whether you’re fueled by coffee or soothed by tea, we all have one thing in common: a deep, unwavering commitment to staying awake long enough to adult.
So here’s to the never-ending caffeine debate! May your cup be full, your eyelids open, and your beverage of choice always piping hot. Cheers! (Or should I say, sip sip?) 😜
