Having an Irish upbringing I consume copious amounts of tea each day. So relaxing to sit down to a warm, steaming mug of the stuff 
What's your daily beverage of choice?

Another 'Tea Jenny' here Frank.  We drink decaffeinated tea and wouldn't be without it. Now and then we have a hot chocolate (with marshmallows and whipped cream - yummy.) or a nice frothy, milky coffee but nothing replaces tea for us.

I have to start the day with several cups of coffee, and then my beverage of choice is sweet ice tea in the biggest glass I can find.

lemon and green tea, then decaf coffee, then green tea...as cold as it's getting, might have some hot chocolate with little marshmallows and a bit of peppermint!

Early morning COFFEE while reading emails and news online is a ritual and my favorite part of the day. Love a good strong cuppa java! After that, water, juice maybe... (the occasional Pepsi, shh!)

Up until about 4 years ago I drank coffee, pots of it every day. But now I drink hot tea (Magnolia Puerh), no cream or sugar....just like I drank my coffee.
After working in the yard a can or two of Chrysanthemum tea is the best way to cool down,
During the day when not gardening it's hot tea, Chrysanthemum tea and water.
I think I lost interest in coffee because I had quit smoking the year before, those two just seem to go together.

I like a nice big cup of coffee early in the morning. Don't even TALK to me until it's gone! 
I only have the one and then if I'm thirsty again, it's water or iced tea, except at dinner when I insist on Milk

Ooh
I start the day with a cup (huge mug) of coffee.
Then by eleven-o-clock I have a cup of tea.
Plenty of water inbetween and about 2 glasses of diluted fruit juice (else it is too sweet).
And my ultimate (decadent) beverage is a whiskey so after supper (the whiskey is alternated with vodka in summer  ).
I call it the ultimate beverage since this is usually the time my hubby and I sit and relax.

I start each day with two cups of coffee, the rest of the day I drink water except when its cold I will drink cranberry pomegranate green tea. In the evening I enjoy a glass (or two) of red wine.
