I love to drink any type of tea while reading. Hot tea, iced tea, green tea, Japanese tea, you name it!

Hello there!
I am definitely a hot beverage drinker when I'm reading. I enjoy tea the most, particularly a good Russian Earl Grey blend or Taylor's (yes, I am a tea snob) Scottish Breakfast tea with milk and sugar. I do occasionally drink coffee or a latte, depending on my location.

Wine is always nice in the afternoon. I like drinking iced coffee when I read as well.

To be honest--Coke (not the drug!). Coca-Cola is my favorite beverage for everything. Coke is my whisky. The drink of champions. I enjoy going through a novel ten times more if I can gobble down a meter-long glass of Coke.

I find that if I pause to fetch a beverage, I am not really enjoying my current book. I have a tendency to love or to hate. And when I am completely immersed in a book, there is no drink to be had. I'm working on being more balanced...maybe a drink will help!

Nothing. There is a time for reading and a time for drinking things! ... [8- | .... Don't mind me, I'm trying to come up with a quote so I can be in Bartlett's. [:- O

And a very good morning to you too Carla! So ... WHAT ARE YOU DRINKING ???¿ *LOL* I'm drinking coffee, the natural drink of the early morning riser. Tea is good too but I don't have any at the moment *pulls pants pockets inside-out*.

EEEEEK !!! I missed your earlier post. It seems you are drinking International French Vanilla Coffee. That sounds yummy. I got a bottle of that vanilla extract meant for coffee sitting in a pantry in the kitchen somewhere. I'm going to spike my coffee with it. See what you've done you temptress!!!! *L*
