In my yoof, we never had coffee in the house, only loose tea.
I had it with 3 heaped teaspoons of sugar and at the end drank the tea leaves with the sugar....slurp.

Now - only either drink rooibos or herbal tea - can drink 'normal' tea but need sugar to take away the bitterness.
Never touch coffee (never liked it) - find the taste just yuck
