Favourite hot beverage?

submitted by RedditHatesLesbians from self.Lesbians

It's getting chilly again, at least where I live, which is the cold and dreary UK. We're holding off turning the heating on until at least October but I've had to switch to my winter duvet, signifying summers end :(

So, what's your favourite hot beverage to enjoy in cooler weather? Be as specific or vague as you'd like. I personally love tea fusions, and recently I've been enjoying a cinnamon and plum blend.

Tea all year long. More hibiscus tea during summer and more black tea during winter, and green tea when I have chocolate.

This may be odd but I enjoy warming up Coke on the stove. Like, Diet Coke or regular. The carbonated beverage. My mom is Japanese and I learned it from her, and it's actually so nice, warms and comforting!

Coffee, with a touch of cream. Very boring answer, but it truly speaks to my soul.

I like fall and winter drinks a lot.

Cinnamon tea, a chai tea latte, hot chocolate, and apple cider.

Hot chocolate, but only as a special treat after a particularly hard day and mostly during the cold seasons.

I have a blend that I found in a store specializing in end of stocks and short expiry dates. It's whole leaves black tea with cinnamon, cloves, cardamom, and other spices, named "African Christmas tea" from a company focussing on tea strains and blends from Africa. It' the absolute best "chai" adjacent tea I know. With soy milk it's to die for. My stock is dwindling very rapidely, though. I'm gonna be so sad.

Also coffee with two opened cadamom pods in the grounds, and soy milk. It takes all the bitterness and roughness of "meh" coffees away and it's so smooth and amazing.

Oh and Yogi teas makes a herbal tea called "choco". It's carob, cocoa, cinnamon ad other sweet spices. It's incredible.

Black coffee. I am a simple woman

Matcha with soy milk

A ridiculous amount of coffee, ideally with oat milk.

There is some vanilla herbal tea that my local place makes a latte out of and it’s amazing! It’s my favorite thing during the cold months

Mocha! I especially like the flavored types Starbucks comes out with during the holidays

Tea. Either herbal tea or black tea.

I drink more hot chocolate than I should and not even just in the winter. I also love hot apple cider in the fall.

Dirty chai lattes, sometimes with an extra shot
