QOTD – A Cup of ?

CupToday’s Question of the Day is short and sweet. It’s cold outside and you’re all snuggled up at home. What’s your choice of something hot to drink this Christmas season? Do you like hot chocolate, with or without marshmallows? Do you drink hot apple cider or hot tea? Or would you rather have coffee?

My answer is all of the above! I love it all. I love hot cocoa and make my own mix every year that we give to family and friends. I love hot apple cider and make it at the holidays. I drink hot tea sometimes, although it’s not my first choice. Coffee is a near-daily item for me, but mostly just in the mornings. Tim is not a believer in decaf coffee, so I don’t ever buy it. So, coffee in the afternoons or evenings for me is a huge no-no. I can’t drink caffeine too late or I have trouble sleeping. Hot chocolate is good all day and night, though 😀

How about you? If you came over, what would you like a cup of to drink?!

    Funny, I never really liked hot drinks. I do love my 2-3 cups of coffee in the a.m. but then I’m done for the day. I never have hot chocolate or tea or anything else. I just drink water.

    My dh loves his coffee or hot chocolate. He has me buy decaf so that he can have coffee when he gets home from a cold day on the road.

  2. Desert Songbird Said,

    I don’t make coffee at home; I only buy the fancy-dancy stuff at Starbucks. At home, my preferred hot beverage is tea, but I love the others as well (particularly if someone else has made it!).

  3. Debi Said,

    Hmmm…I’m like you…it’s ALL good! I think it depends on the “occasion”. Definitely coffee in the morning. Hot tea on chilly afternoons. Hot chocolate after playing in the snow. Hot spiced cider during holiday affairs. Just depends. But like I said…it’s ALL good!

  4. Dawn Said,

    My first choice would be hot apple cider, but hot chocolate is good too — flavored or with marshmallows or just plain, I like it all!

  5. Lynne Said,

    I usually like a cup of Russian tea – a mixture of Tang, lemon flavored instant decaf tea, cinnamon and cloves. Or a cup of decaf Suisse Mocha coffee (General Foods International Coffee). I like hot chocolate on cold mornings and sometimes at night.

  6. Cam Said,

    I would definitely choose hot chocolate! 🙂 When can I come over?

    I like hot tea, too, but I rarely have it because it gives me reflux. But if you had it…I’d have to give in and drink some.

    I’d pass on the coffee or cider.

  7. Jill Said,

    Gosh, I love them all, too. But I rarely branch out from a cup of coffee or tea. I loved hot chocolate as a kid. I may be spontaneous buy some cider tonight when I get groceries.

  8. Becky Said,

    I would drink hot chocolate with lots of marshmallows!!! I’d love to see your recipe for yours…I’ve thought about making some to give as presents! I would also take coffee, flavored ofcourse…I love my coffee with a candy cane in it this time of year!!! I would also take some hot tea or hot apple cider!!! I’m easy to please! 🙂

  9. Laura Said,

    Chocolate, tea, or cider! 🙂

  10. Lauren@Baseballs&Bows Said,

    Honestly, I don’t like hot drinks, so I don’t snuggle up with any of them!

  11. Coach Jenny Said,

    I like either coffee or hot chocolate or hot apple cider. No hot tea for me, thank you! And, if I’m going to be snugglin’ up, my first choice is a flavored hot coffee drink.

  12. Karen Said,

    My hot beverage of choice is tea with milk and sugar. But if it’s a cold, snowy day, then nothing beats hot chocolate (homemade w/ Hershey’s cocoa and a bit of vanilla), and marshmallows.

  13. Susanne Said,

    I pretty much like anything. Coffee is a number one choice but like you can’t drink it in the late afternoon or evening and hubby doesn’t believe in decaf. I love chai tea, hot choc. or my new fave, hot apple cider from a certain company. It tastes just like my godmom’s apple pies used to taste. Like dessert in a mug, minus the crust. LOL.

  14. Stacy aka Vaders Mom Said,

    I’m all about apple cider, but hot chocolate…coffee…pretty much anything is good!

  15. Sandra Said,

    Coffee first thing in the morning and then Hot tea and milk during the day.

  16. Heidi Said,

    I’m with you. All of the above. and I LOVE hot cocoa with marshmallows. I’ll happily drink it without, but it definitely improves it!

  17. theresa Said,

    the snuggley part is definitely hot chocolate with marshmellows, yummm

  18. Gail Said,

    Yes, yes and yes! I pretty much like all of those too…..hot chocolate is yummy with or without marshmallows. I drink decaf hot tea with honey or hot spiced tea, an old favorite. And my coffee is decaf too but I love flavored or flavored creamers.

  19. Maria Said,

    I’d love a cup of hot coffee or hot tea! But probably coffee!

  20. annie Said,

    Well if you stopped by I would fix you whatever you would like… but I’d be having sonic ice with coke 🙂

  21. Fresh Girl Said,

    I don’t drink hot drinks very often, which is kinda of strange since I’m cold a lot. ;-D But when I do it’s either coffee or a Folger’s Cafe Latte. Very rarely do I have hot chocolate, but when I do it’s NEVER with marshmallows. Blech! Marshmallows, yucky! 😉

  22. Sonya Said,

    I’d love some hot cocoa with lots of tiny marshmallows. I also love cider too!

  23. jen Said,

    I’m thinking coffee with a special creamer. Hot Chocolate with marshmallows is nice too.

  24. Shawna Said,

    Hot chocolate or a Chai Tea Latte from a local bookstore with lots of whipped cream and chocolate on top. I add marshmallows to my hot chocolate some but mostly have it plain. I don’t like coffee or cider.
