'Call the Midwife' is a good series and like most people in Britain they like a cuppa.

In terms of a Cuppa, even the British Army brew up after they finish fighting.

I think the American thing is to drink a sugared drink with the meal and then have the coffee with the heavily sugared desert once you are considered mature enough to graduate from milk for that purpose.

And then you have the coffee bar whose main purpose seems to be a way to melt the cream and sugar to make a stand alone drink used for purposes other than injecting caffeine and heat.

Yea, usually, not every day, but often enough.

If I plan to stay up late and don't have to work the next day, I will drink coffee with dinner.

They taste good together.
