If its not made with a Moca, its poop

Jabran, sounds like Arabic coffee? Boil the ground coffee (which is white as opposed to normal brown beans) in milk/water, then mix in ground cardomon, ends up a greeny beige colour, and drink it with dates?

Green tea? Gaaah...

Tried 2 versions of 'real' green tea in Japan. The 1st was in Takashimaya department store in Ginza, given to me in the food court by a enthusiastic Japanese man keen to gain my thoughts. How I didn't spit it out all over him was a miracle.

The second, was in Himeji Koko-en, where the wife and I thought we'd be traditional and go to a tea ceremony. Once more, I thought I was going to provide green pebble-dash to the tatami mat and the polite Japanese ladies kimono, but somehow kept it in.

I'm the son of a builder, and have been raised on a diet of Typhoo & PG Tips. Even coffee tastes minging to me. My wife drinks Rooibos, which is supposed to be good for you, and is apparently very hydrating, so you could try that. To me, it just smells of fish flavoured nettles, and tastes even worse.

Noh not arabic tea,it s made with milk and teabags (or tea leaves if you have em i think) cardomoms and possibly salt, it translates to "milk tea" or as one of the fellas said desi tea.

The afghan green tea is brilliant though, really refreshing and provides a lot of energy.

Gaaah... Tried a version of Milk Tea in Shanghai, complete with 'boba' balls (tapioca). It comes with a mega-sized straw so that you can suck the balls up together with the warm tea. Another gag fest for me...

Lol I can tell you that it sounds nothing like the shanghai tea.

I see a pattern with you :haha:

Im 29 and wouldnt touch tea... it looks and smells vile.

Coffee on the other hand is a different matter. Instant coffee wouldnt interest me but very black fresh coffee is hard to beat, even just the smell of it :)

Starbucks or Seattle's best from borders - iced coffee is lovely on a warm day.

They all drink sweet tea down here in the south but it just looks wrong.
