Some French people prefer tea
A recent conversation:
"Would you like a coffee or some tea?"
"Oh, tea please. Tea is an excellent drink. It makes you perspire. It makes you urinate.."
"Ummm - we wouldn't say that in Britain.."
"Oh yes - you would say it makes you sweat?"
"Ummm, no. In Britain although everyone does urinate we do not generally talk about it much. Except with the doctor."
