An Art of Taste - CoffTea

What is CoffTea? – It is a coffee and tea drink.

One mistake in the morning; you had better be awake before you drink your coffee or tea. Or you will have CoffTea. It happened when I made this mistake while half asleep. I accidentally poured a teaspoon of instant coffee into my already brewed hot tea without thinking.

I looked at it and muttered ugh. But, I did not want to waste it so I decided to add sugar and try it out. It took away the bitterness of the coffee and still had the mildness of the tea. You would have to acquire a taste for it. That is my opinion though.
It might taste better if you mix it with your favorite flavored coffee and regular tea mix. Or maybe it won’t you can decide for yourself.

Here are some small tips I found about making a cup of CoffTea at Wikia.com

There is actually a drink called Yuan Yang in the Hong Kong area. They mix milk tea and coffee together for this unique drink. I found this on Wikipedia.

This drink must be full of anti-oxidants since both coffee and tea both have these in them. But, before drinking for these benefits make sure that it is good for you to drink on a regular basis and see what your physician says on this matter.*

Go try it yourself as an experiment and see what you think. Have fun exploring the art of new ways to make and drink coffee and tea.

*For added information about coffee for health, whether it is good or bad go to Mayo Clinic site to see what Dr. Donald Hensrud, M.D., a Mayo Clinic preventive medicine specialist has to say.

  1. You mean there's a name for it? I did this by accident at work ... we have one of those Keurig "coffee by the cup" machines, and I usually mix two types of coffee in my large mug. One morning, I accidentally put a "tea" k-cup in the machine. It took me about half the mug to figure out why the coffee tasted so odd. LOL

  2. Yes, that's the name and it fits perfect. It took a little getting used to. Some out there in other cultures enjoy this mix. When I read this I was surprised too at what the Wikipedia and another site had to say about it. Very interesting to know it is. Thanks for your comment.
