Yes you heard me.

I use 2 green tea bags and a teaspoon of coffee and boiling water to make my beverage. I leave it to sit for 3 minutes and drink it straight. No milk/soy and no sugar/honey or anything else.

You may commence your hatred of me ITT now.

    Because I can.

    I figure I get all the health benefits and anti oxidants of green tea with the added anti oxidants of coffee AND caffeine from both ingredients.

    Not that bad. It's not as bitter as black coffee because it has green tea in it. And it's not as weak as green tea because it has coffee in it.

    There are some Mate blends with a little bit of cocoa and coffee to give you a morning boost. I drink "my morning mate" from teavana so good, and I am the type to NEED morning coffee, so coming from a coffee-holic I totally get the cofftea :drinker:

    I made cofftea by mistake the other day. Dumped it out without tasting it when I realized what I had done. Guess I should have tasted it first. Maybe I would have liked it. :drinker:

    I used to work in a coffee shop and we would make Chai tea lattes with a shot of espresso and it is called a "dirty Chai". This reminded me of that.
