RE: Coffee Time, A #comment to @wakeupkitty.pal's Post
I am surprised you say that you had no money for drinks and that's the reason you drank coffee. With us coffee isn't the cheapest drink but "tea" is and even the cheapest soda is more afforI dable than coffee. I don't believe that many different types of coffee are sold. Perhaps online? I do remember a tea shop in the city of Arnhem. No idea if it still exist.
Do you drink your coffee black that it hurts your stomach? I only hear it from black coffee drinkers they have health issues not from those drinking it with milk but can be the black coffee drinkers consume it more as well.
There was a time I only drank black coffee but I don't longer like the smell which is stronger with coffee beans as it is with instant coffee or those sachets. I can understand your father likes the taste of that more. The coffee is different but it's also "sweeter" even though it's not noticed it is.
They grow the LIberica coffee plant in your country or is it all import from Africa or Indonesia? Again I learned something from you. Thank you for the information.
I wish you a nice cup of coffee in the morning but above all a good night without disturbance.

I learned to drink coffee, instant coffee that is because of my mother ad that is readily available in the house so I would have it especially when my caffeine level in m body becomes low after I got addicted to it during my younger years.
Now my mother had developed hyperacidity which is why she no longer drinks coffee while for myself I just have it one a day as a brewed coffee in the morning but I sometimes have it as a very pale coffee as instant coffee as my drink of choice when I have my second and final meal of the day because it helps me to eat. I do not like it to affect my sleep so I will just request my mother to fix me a very pale instant coffee for that matter.
The enjoyment of brewed coffee comes with the addiction to it, so if you are addicted to even with instant coffee, it is a very delightful drink to have even with teas if you had gone accustomed in drinking it. However if you would have both more than four times a day it will affect your stomach and develop hyperacidity plus as I had mentioned, will also affect iron absorption on the food we eat. But it has benefits if we consume coffee sparingly. Miss @wakeupkitty
It can help with the painkillers as well. We have painkillers with coffeine not that they help me so I no longer take them. Coffee makes me sleepy runds in the family and sleeping pills keep me awake.
I like ginger tea ir the one we call "starmint" but it also depends on the season and if it's available. Shops don't feel eager to buy new as long as they have old stuff. Many empty shelves the full shops are in the cities those living on the countryside are good for what is left.
