Cold liquor is hard to handle. Tastes different and hurts my teeth.
Coffee... I can drink it all day long, and only black.

I'll have to try it. I'm a bit of a coffeeholic. I can, will, and have drank it all day long before. No ill effects. I can't cay the same about multiple cans of any kind of caffinated soda. Two is my limit on those, unless it's Mountain Dew. Then the limit is uno.

No coffee, no tobacco, no alcohol...... What can I say. I am pure as the driven snow.
I am chugging hot chocolate right now. I shuttled hay up from the far stack yard for a couple hours. Open station tractor. Not all that cold but a nice wind blowing a hole through me. I needed to be dressed heavier. The last load my teeth started chattering and I was shaking. Sure sign that I am too cold. But the fire in the wood stove sure is nice now.

Try tea maybe us Brits run on it.I do drink my fair share.
And I'll jump on the wagon, coffee is just plain nasty
I try it every few years thinking maybe my taste buds have changed, but nope. I love the smell of coffee though

No coffee, alcohol, or tobacco for me either.
Have had some wine a few times , rum once years ago, but it's a personal choice not to drink for me. Haven't touched any of it for almost 20 years. Very much a t totaler now.
Started chewing some tobacco at 10 years old. Beechnut, Levi Garret,
Never could handle that fine cut stuff in the cans. I liked a good size plug of tobacco. I chewed till about 19 maybe 20. Started having ulcer trouble and it seemed like it was making it worse even though I was spitting it out never understood why it was affecting my stomach. So I quit it cold turkey. Sometimes almost 30 years later my mouth still waters for a chew.
I started drinking coffee pretty young, mixing a lot of sugar and milk in it. Then over time stared cutting down on both sugar and milk. Some point cut out sugar in it altogether and finally started drinking it black. Got to liking it stronger and stronger and two or three cups a day.
3 or 4 years ago dropped pretty all caffeine due to high blood pressure and Ménière's disease.
Keep thinking I'll try somebdecaffeinated coffee because I like coffee so well but haven't yet other a cup or two when traveling.

I had to look up Ménière's disease. Sounds like something I might have. Vertigo, hearing loss with more in one ear, and I'm very sensitive to caffeine.
I was just starting to drink coffee several years ago, and loving it, by drinking a dry mix French vanilla cappuccino made by Hills Brothers. But the caffeine became a problem so I switched to their decaf cappuccino. I also use a teaspoon of decaf instant coffee to give it more coffee flavor.

Yeah, I know someone dealing with that and it's not fun. Fortunately I've never had that issue.

Me too. I've gotten used to it.
I'm assuming you don't mean the iced sweet that everyone from where I live to all points south and east thrive on? Tea making is a full time job at my house.

Hot tea with milk please. Tea time at 5pm with cake or biscuits (the proper kind) otherwise we brits wither up and die lol
Nah I drink at least 4 mugs of it a day, can't imagine life without it. Coffee and is fine and all but its a first thing in the morning thing for me I don't drink it past noon.

Growing up my mother often fixed both. sweet iced tea to drink with meals and a lot of times at night we'd drink a cup of hot tea.

Its just never really caught on here. Not sure maybe because it rarely gets above 25 C here. 
I did learn of something called kombucha today though which I might give a goI'm that way with pineapple juice.
I drink a lot of black coffee until lunch time, water until after supper and then juice before bed. Am known to have a shot of Crown Royal and water on occasion, sometimes share a beer with my better half. Almost never drink any kind of pop.
I like cream on my oatmeal, ice cream, whip cream, yogurt, cottage cheese, sour cream….. but might drink a glass of milk only a couple times a year
Do you drink any herb teas? Enjoy lemon ginger or raspberry, not often will I drink a cup of Red Rose.Oh no that sounds like sacrilege

There is a brand of juice in our grocery that is called, "Simply" and every one of the flavors seems to pack a flavor punch. But the only one I could get addicted to is the Watermelon. D**n it's good.
