I prefer Advanced Tea Substitute, it tastes almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea. ;-)

Programming is about problem solving, and programming well is about solving problems without repeating a lot of logic over and over. Can you get the results that you want without hard coding magic values, can someone understand what your program is doing and why? Can someone new come in and maintain the code with out just slapping on more code? You don't need to be a genius, you just need to write thoughtful well documented code that adapts to change easily.
