Actually neither coffee nor tea were available in Britain before 1650, well after Shakespeare's day. Mild ale was safer to drink than water and much more common. From Shakespeare's works, and especially in the dialogues of the notorious tipplers Sir Toby Belch and Sir John Falstaff we know that an extremely popular drink was sack, fortified dry white Spanish wine, the modern equivalent being Sherry. Sometimes this was heated by thrusting a hot Poker into it, and in such cases it was called "burnt sack". Sir Toby says "Come, come, I'll go burn some sack. 'Tis too late to go to bed now." Twelfth Night, Act II Scene 3)
