Easily 15-20 cups a day tea,coffee,hot chocolates

None. I never understand the coffee/tea thing. I also never understand the ‘making a brew’ thing I see on here. I only have a drink if I’m thirsty, I’m not one of those people constantly drinking water or carrying a water bottle around with them either.

None

I only drink tea although recently Ive started having one coffee in the morning as well

I try to have 2 litres worth but never make that much. Today was only 1300ml

So I should have just over 6 big mugs but just cant drink that much liquid in a day

During working hours I constantly have a tea on the go

Frosty1000 · 16/02/2024 22:43

3 - 2 big mugs of Yorkshire gold, one at breakfast then one afternoon then a mug of hot blackcurrant squash mid morning 🤣

Cold drinks at other times.

4-5 mugs of tea, occasionally I'll substitute 1 with a coffee but it's mostly tea. I don't take milk in either but do take sugar.

DelilahBucket · 16/02/2024 22:44

Three on a weekday, two coffees in the morning and a bedtime tea. A few more on a weekend, usually a other 2-3 cups of tea.

tillyandmilly · 16/02/2024 22:46

2 mugs of proper coffee with almond milk in the morning as not morning person ! rest of day water!

louderthan · 16/02/2024 22:48

Probably four. Tea first thing, then a strong coffee about 10/11, tea in the afternoon and usually a mint tea in the evening.
Might be less if I'm in work because I don't always have milk with me.

lifebeginsaftercoffee · 16/02/2024 22:48

Two - occasionally three.

maddiemookins16mum · 16/02/2024 22:56

Approx 5 teas, 1 coffee.

Janelle7 · 16/02/2024 22:58

Around 8 coffees (decafe!) a day

Judystilldreamsofhorses · 16/02/2024 23:07

At least ten cups of tea with skimmed milk. Before bed I have ginger and turmeric tea.

ColdButSunny · 16/02/2024 23:09

Typically 1. Sometimes 0 or 2.

DillDanding · 16/02/2024 23:09

On an average day - none. Over the course of a week I might have one or two cups of weak black tea. I don’t drink coffee.

Fizbosshoes · 16/02/2024 23:12

I don't find hot drinks thirst quenching, so I only have them if I am particularly cold. This equates to about 8 cups of tea a year.

aintnospringchicken · 16/02/2024 23:17

2-3 cups of decaf tea.
Drink coffee very rarely

Jeannie88 · 16/02/2024 23:23

About 4 cups of coffee, 2 litres of water/juice and and 3 nights wine. X

VivienneDelacroix · 16/02/2024 23:24

3-4

Nat6999 · 16/02/2024 23:37

1 a day, I have over active bladder so have to be careful how much I drink or I'm constantly wetting myself & up all night going to the loo.

EnolaAlone · 16/02/2024 23:43

Usually 5.

L0bstersLass · 17/02/2024 00:10

10-12, but only the first one is caffeinated.

MeandBobbyMcGoo · 17/02/2024 00:11

Two cups of coffee a day, before 2pm. Sweet tea only when I'm ill. I have a friend who would easily do 10-12 cups of tea a day - she is is up and down to the kettle all day long it feels like.
