Tea

You get three guesses, and the first two don't count.

I'm more of a raktajino man myself.

I love mixing unsweetened iced tea with lemonade. I believe this drink is called an Arnold Palmer.

Yup. It's a staple down here, you can get it in almost any restaurant, or even canned.

Currently drinking some Chai Tea right now, as I wind down for the evening. I also like a few other teas mentioned previously (green, earl grey, irish). Generally I prefer my tea without any sweeteners or creams, but I don't really hate them.

I have a LOT of feelings about tea. I love loose tea and I simply adore having floral tea like jasmine or chamomile before bed. In the mornings though, it's all about the European black teas! For afternoons I like green and white tea.


I do collect tea tins as well. I like to line them up in my window sill.

I want to try Irish breakfast tea now that everyone is saying they like it. I nearly bought some once but bought something else.

I tried peppermint iced tea a little bit ago and enjoyed it - very refreshing and tasty.

From time to time, I enjoy a nice English Breakfast tea with milk and sugar. Recently, I was introduced to Indian Masala Chai, which is absolutely delicious.

I bought some decaffeinated Constant Comment and Lemon Lift today.

 

[Mourning Dove]

I also chai lattes.

I don't drink tea as much as I used to anymore, but when I do I'll have a nice builders tea (milk and two sugars) with either PGtips or Yorkshire Tea.

Two pages into a thread about tea and no-ones posted the best advert of all time....

When my brother was in middle school he made tea and put milk and several spoons of sugar in, lol. I think he had more milk and sugar than tea.

Yes, we made fun of him for it.

I'm so happy this thread exists

I love tea. I drink coffee more these days, but I've been trying to get back into drinking more tea again. I have a lovely jasmine green tea I like and of course, the Earl Grey. My favorite is white tea right now, but I'm way too poor at the moment to get some.

At night I have tulsi (holy basil) tea infused with rose. I also have another tea which has valerian root but I can't remember what else is in it.

I tried Pu-Erh recently -it smells like soil after it rains. It's fermented and takes decades to make, so the stuff used to be considered really fancy (too good for foreigners, it was actually illegal to export from China), but that changed after manufacturers figured out a process of artificial fermentation.

I drank it at a convention workshop -rather memorable to be served tea by a grad student dressed in loli, sitting between Poison Ivy and Zatanna.

I'm drinking some loose tea made from mint and stevia from my garden. It's gooood! My folks and I usually use tea bags and heat our water in the microwave, but we recently bought a tea kettle and some tea infuser ball thingies so we can be all fancy n' shit.

My current tea cache right now includes a tin of loose-leaf black tea w/ rose petals in it (It's fantastically smooth), some pomegranate green and jasmine green, and some vanilla chai that I like to use to make sweetened chai lattes with. I'd rather pay 2 dollars for a box of chai and make my own lattes than pay 3 dollars for a latte at a coffee shop.

I am a Coffee guy myself (I drink Cuban coffee mostly) and I am not a big fan of Tea especially for a guy from England, but about once a month I will drink a Tea (not including herbals like mint, peppermint) it's either Earl Gray OR Rose Puchong (a Twinings blend) and it's in a thin glass cup with about half a cube of sugar I put on a little classical music an relax in my comfy chair.

The rest of the time it's Coffee or Herbal tea and the tea's are my after 9pm an I want something hot with flavor and I am planning on sleeping in a few hours.

I'm drinking some green tea with mint and tarragon right now. I usually get myself a cup during my 2:30 break at work, something to give me a second wind without making me jittery when I come home.

I think green, white, and mint teas are my favorite types of tea. My husband and I also love making our own sweet tea during the summer, with orange pekoe and raw sugar.

I love mixing unsweetened iced tea with lemonade. I believe this drink is called an Arnold Palmer.

That's one of my husband's drinks, hell it might be one of his favorite things in the world. We make that at home too with Simply Lemonade.
