Are you a coffee drinker or do you prefer tea? It turns out that your caffeinated drink of choice may say a lot about your personality, according to one survey.
The survey was first reported on by the New York Post. OnePoll conducted the survey on behalf of the tableware company Chinet.
The survey found that on average coffee drinkers tended to be more creative and introverted morning people. While tea drinkers were typically more adventurous and daring extroverted night owls.
The survey also found that coffee drinkers were lighter sleepers, but were more punctual. Most tea drinkers, on the other hand, said that they were “average sleepers.”
Coffee and tea also seem to indicate the type of entertainment one consumes. Tea drinkers seemed to enjoy shows like “The Walking Dead” and “The Big Bang Theory” and enjoyed classical, country and pop music. Coffee drinkers watched “Seinfeld” and “The Office” and preferred punk rock, blues and jazz music.
Most coffee drinkers said that they drank coffee mainly for the caffeine and said that tea was “too boring.”
