Does tea make a different sound when you stir it (in the same cup & with same spoon) than coffee?

Question

My colleagues insist that they can differentiate the sound of tea v coffee being stirred by the sound the spoon makes when it hits the cup.  I think I need to start putting gin in my cup.

Answer

Yes. Because of density. Both when mixed with water have different densities and so the sound made when steering changes too.

Answer

My goodness! I never checked!

Answer

May I ask, "Who cares?"  I highly recommend worrying about abused animals or global warming or the tubby guy in Korea holding his finger over the launch button instead of stirred beverage sounds.
