A few sentences
Hi: could you point out my mistakes, please?
My wife and I are going to drink some coffee. They recently opened this Blenz coffee house, so we're going to test it. I hope it is better than the other kinds of coffe I have drank here. In fact, I prefer not to drink coffee rather than to drink it, but sometimes I do it without any explainable reason.
Thanks!

Re: A few sentences
coffe I have drank- coffee I have drunk
I prefer not to drink coffee rather than to drink it- I'd delete the 'rather than' part as it seems unnecessary to me.

Thanks, tdol. "I prefer not to drink coffee to drink it" -- it looks awkward to me. Is it really fine?
Best,

Re: A few sentences
No- simply, ' I prefer not to drink coffee, but sometimes...'. I see no need for the alternative.
