Raise your hand if coffee or tea is the only thing that gets you through the day.

I'm sure many hands were raised as coffee is an important part of many Hudson Valley residents routine.

Take a look at any main strip of road and count how many Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks you see, if you're on route 9 in Poughkeepsie there's about 4 in walking distance of each other.

Needless to say the Hudson Valley loves their coffee and tea.

Well if you're a coffee or tea aficionado, you may want to block out April 22nd in your calendar.

According to IloveNY.com, The Culinary Institute of America in Hyde Park will be hosting the first ever A Cup of The Valley Coffee and Tea Festival on Saturday April 22nd from 11am until 5pm. The event is sponsored by local Hudson Valley Rotary Clubs and will have several delicious coffee and tea samples to try from.
