How much coffee do you drink? Writers and nonwriters alike can answer—I’m just curious.
I went on a writing retreat with Sara McClung and Cristin Terrill this weekend, and they seem to think I drink a lot! Which, I know I do . . . but I didn’t really drink that much in front of them, and so now I’m interested to know how much people generally drink.
How many cups a day? A week?
At least a cup a day. Sometimes two if I’m home and not working. I can’t function without coffee!
Not surprisingly, I’m the same as my wife here. One to two a day. It gets really bad for me if you include the amount of hot tea, too.
Hmm…I think I do include it — if it’s caffeinated?
I usually drink 2-4 cups a day. I wish I was drinking coffee with you right now!!!!
Daily cups of tea: Uh, do I really have to admit that?
Seriously, though, I’ve never been a coffee drinker, but I recently started drinking hot tea (British style, with milk and sugar). I usually drink a couple cups a day, although sometimes I’ll have as many as five. Especially if I’m writing or it’s really cold outside. There’s just something about having a hot cup of tea at hand while scribbling in a notebook.
I do too — I think that’s why I drink so much. But it’s so fun! Especially in the winter!
I don’t drink coffee; soda is my crutch for caffeine. But I think the only detrimental effect is short term memory loss and a tendency to repeat oneself.
Oh, I don’t drink coffee; soda is my crutch for caffeine.
I’m an all or nothing kind of girl when it comes to coffee. I can go weeks without having any, but then I make a 10 cup pot and drink it all.
Don’t look at me like that. 🙂 I really only drink decaf, except when I get the occasional fancy coffee when I’m out and about. Otherwise, a bit of sugar-free flavored syrup and some milk and I’m good.
I drink the majority of a pot by myself daily — and it’s usually *not* decaf, so no judgment here!
I don’t guzzle tea either — I wonder what’s wrong with us?
Anywhere between 2-4 cups a day. That’s not including caffeinated beverages such as diet with lunch and dinner.
It takes a lot to keep me going!
I used to only drink green tea, and on special occasions, I’d get a latte. But since my son was born, my coffee intake has gone up quite a bit–for me that is. I drink a large cup a day. That may not sound like a lot, but it is for me. And the strength of the coffee keeps going up too. I figure by the times he’s in school, I’ll be up to 5 cups a day.
I drink 2-3 a day. But at home I drink the Folgers 1/2 caffeine brand. It’s not the caffeine I’m addicted to, it’s the taste. :)Probably because I use flavored creamer and make it taste like dessert.
I usually mix (caff & decaf) after my first pot.
I’m admittedly addicted to both, but I think it’s the taste I enjoy overall.
I loves me some Coke Zero as well! We don’t usually buy pop (I know, I know–SODA, but I’m from Cleveland, for crying out loud!) unless we have guests.
2-3 cups a day, just to balance out the bourbon.
I generally drink 1 mocha every other week. No coffee, unless my connection brings me the good stuff from his parents coffee plantation, then all bets are off.
That doesn’t sound too shabby. Good work, K-dogg!
