Good coffee or tea, well brewed and fresh is very tasty to me on its own.

I don't drink tea on a regular basis so i don't know if a pot of tea
goes bitter the same way a pot of coffee can if kept to long and either
reheated or kept on a low heat.

At which point a bit of milk and sugar will alleviate the need to throw
away an undrinkably bitter fluid. And of course a teaspoon of chocolate
in a cup of reheated coffee.....
