How many sugars do you take in your tea and coffee?

Right, I have stated on another post that I am not happy about the amount of sugar I use so I thought I would ask others how much sugar they use. Also I am interested in how many cups you consume.

I am aware that they link a high sugar intake with diabetes and tooth decay so I have never been happy with all the sugar I use.
We get sugar in most of our food but by drinking beverages we are stuffing even more sugar in our systems.
Luckily I don't seem to have suffered with any health issues with such a high intake of sugar.

I drink about 12 cups of tea or coffee a day.

In tea I use two heaped teaspoons.
In coffee I use three heaped teaspoons.

You only drink 12 cups - you amateur
In tea I take 2 sugars and coffee I take between 2 and 3.
I once knew someone who took tea with no sugar or milk!

One and a half in tea, sometimes two.
In coffee I generally put two and a half and three.

Tea - 2 sugars.
Coffee - 3 sugars.
If someone else makes the coffee for me it usually tastes ok but if they make tea for me, then nine times out of ten its crap!

I can drink tea and coffee with one or two spoonfuls of sugar.
Mostly though, I will put two in both but I must admit to liking coffee with more sugar.
If I make a beverage and forget to put sugar in when I take it upstairs than I just drink it.
I might not like it but I can't ever be bothered about the trek back downstairs to correct things
I am just a lazy sod

I take two sugars across the board for the benefit of others

Two sugars in my tea.
In coffee I can take anything really, one, two, three or I can have it black with no sugar at all!

I have tried to cut down on sugar but its difficult.
In tea I balance between one and a half teaspoonfuls.
In coffee I try and keep to the same but its usually two more than anything.
