Well, I am more of a coffee person. However, I need a cup of tea in the morning to take care of myself and start my day. After that, I stick with tea because coffee makes me a little bit anxious. Whereas tea gives me a more natural, energized feeling and boosts my mood and recharges my battery during the hectic routine of the day. So, yeah, I always prefer tea.
