It's snowy. It's cold. And I'm slugging back a hot mug of ginger tea. Yeah, it's good, but my real favorite beverage of choice? Wow. That's a tough call. I'm going to go with a pot of French press crafted Burundi or Peru with a splash of heavy whipping cream. Nectar of the gods, I say.
But a lot of other writers tended to lean toward the hooch. Here is a list of some famous authors and their beverage of choice . . .

I love my Keurig. It's fast and easy and I can get a ton of coffees in different flavors. My favorite ones are coffee with chocolate, of course.
draining the last of my morning cinnamon hazelnut as we speak. then moving on to my 24/7 unsweetened (how very UNsouthern of me) iced green tea
I start my morning with Folgers coffee.....with French Vanilla creamer.
I sure learn a lot from your blog....some interesting and others quite surprising.
