JCC tea

i've recently started drinking tea. a lot. especially at work.

started with a regular pack of twinings. then i found out that pukka had a lot of good flavours. and now i'm trying out something called yogi tea, i think.

i just try to buy a new flavour every time i go tea shopping, so that i may find new favourites. apparently i buy anything with the word "ginger" on it.

tell me what the best tea is, pls.

 

I'm starting to get into it as well since I need to not be drinking soda anymore. Today started with sweet tea (note to self, get sweetener and go for unsweet) and has moved to a cup of earl gray.

Still sipping on it, and the tea bag is still in it .... going on 3 hours now. Interestingly, lots of flavors I can taste now.

 

You gave up soda and now you're drinking tea with a load of sugar dumped into it, AmySolo?

Tazo Awake Tea is my personal favourite. Obviously with a splash of milk.

 

blahblabhalh. It's a work in progress, hence the unsweet and control my own sweetness.

 

Earl Grey. Hot.

 

Lipton like a mofo!

 

I usually have Twinings... either Earl Grey or English Breakfast, served hot with no milk or sugar, and just leave the bag in. I don't drink coffee, so tea it is. Iced tea, too, sometimes at restaurants. That I'll do half sweet half unsweet.

 

As long as your pinky finger is extended whilst you sip, there is no "wrong" tea.

 

i mostly like herbal teas and black tea. with herbal tea i usually buy a variety pack, but with black tea i pretty much stick to orange spice.

 

I don't like coffee so I drink tea at work. Right now, I'm doing a Rooibos Vanilla tea and I put cream and a small splash of vanilla Monin syrup in it for sweetness. During the summer, I tend to drink green tea, usually Tazo Zen, green tea with mint and lemongrass. I frequently make that one into iced tea too. Wintertime, I tend to have chai for months. Again with cream and either pumpkin spice or gingerbread spice syrup.

 

I usually have earl grey for breakfast, but I bought a variety pack from Twinnings and it has two types of breakfast tea and a lady grey which is like earl but with more citrus. They're all pretty good.

 

I prefer Earl Grey as an afternoon tea, I think because to me it's a bit of a stronger flavor.

 

Yumsy - Earl Grey - hot and do love chai - Twinings and/or Celestial Seasonings. English Breakfast or Asian green teas for morning.

 

I gave up coffee and sugar for Lent so drank a lot of sugarless tea. Learned that tea w/o sugar is basically like drinking a tree branch. Yuck.

 

I love tea, drink it all the time.

I recently bought THIS Twinings tea assortment and it's great! You get a bunch of different teas to try that you might not want to buy a whole box of to see if you like it. I discovered I really love their Lemon and Ginger tea from that.

One of my favorites is Harney and Son's "Hot Cinnamon Spice", but you have to buy it in the sachets and not the normal tea bags. The normal tea bags just don't taste as good.

I really like Bigelow's Mint Medley as well, it's probably my favorite mint tea.

 

I also do a nice PG Tips when I feel like an English Black Tea. Or I think it's Good Earth has a Sweet & Spicy that's amazing and needs no sugar or anything... and it doesn't taste like tree bark.

 

Peppermint tea and Mango tea are both nice

 

Teavana has some yummy teas but you need to take someone who's resistant to pushy salespeople. EVERY TIME I'm like "I just want an ounce or two of this" and they'll pour like 6 ounces in the bag, and I have to be like "No, dude, pour it back. I ain't paying $80 for this." And then they're like "listen if you just get four more ounces you get a discount!" It's really hard to leave there with less than a pound of tea because they WILL push it on you until you cave. I'm too weak for Teavana.
