Solution

The correct option is A no article
There are certain sentences where articles are omitted. These include:
1. before uncountable and abstract nouns used in a general sense.
2. before plural countable nouns used in a general sense.
3. before names of countries, people, continents, cities, rivers and lakes.
4. before names of meals.
5. before names of languages
In this particular sentence, it is an uncountable abstract noun (coffee or tea). Thus, the blank would have no article.
Option A is correct.
