    I wouldn't quite say need, but I sure enjoy my hot cup of coffee in the morning and on through lunch time, then in the evening before dinner, along with cheese and crackers, a couple oz. of "Jack" (Jack Daniels).

    Coffee. More coffee, and even more coffee. I like my coffee as I like my men: dark, strong and dangerous.

    I'm really a tea person, but sort of never get round to putting the water kettle on. In the afternoons/evenings it's water or sugarfree lemonade.

    In spring and summer I also drink birch leaf tea or other herbal teas I concoct from what I've got growing outside.

    In winter I like cocoa. When my darling husband's had enough of me he adds cognac to my cocoa and make me another mug or two. I fall asleep, he's happy. :D

    Some evenings I like a glass of wine or a liqueur. A pear cider will also do.

    A cup of tea or fruit juice starts my day. I used to drink coffee like 7-8 mugs daily but I was told to kick the addiction by my doc.

    Usually about 3 cups of coffee in the morning, water throughout the day, and an after-work cup of coffee as well.

    As my wife would say, I can't say something without telling a story, it must go along with my white hair. On my 12th birthday according to a family tradition I was awakened by my parents with a tray of coffee cups, each with a version of the afore mentioned beverage. Coffee black, with sugar, with cream, and with sugar and cream, I tasted each and decided on cream and sugar. It stayed that way until while in the military service, a coffee fund in our maintenance shop was always running out of cream and sugar. I switched to black coffee and my beverage of choice has stayed that way ever since. As for the size of my coffee cup.......that is another story.
