Tea for Two - 10/29/2008 12:16:04 AM

So, I'm exhausted but yet again can not sleep. I'm out of chamomile tea, so I pulled some tea out of the cupboard that I haven't tried before - Ginger Something-Or-Other. It's gross. I'm still drinking it, but it's gross. Go figure.

What's your favorite tea? I'm mostly a coffee drinker, but I do like Assam tea, and I'm partial to Jasmine. I bought some loose leaf jasmine tea in SF's Chinatown not too long ago, but I don't have anything to steep it in yet.

Any tea drinkers here? Do you drink it "straight?" Cream and sugar? Honey? And what's your favorite?

I like tea when it is snowing or I am sick. I don't have a favorite really, I just try not to get the same kind each time.

( first thing in the morning - gotta have coffee

)
durring the day - I'm partial to Earl Grey with lemon
( durring the summer I use Tetley Tea to make my suntea )
evening - normally it's a cuppa chamomile

I really like tea and love trying all the different flavors and blends

Nueva Vida, have you ever tried Valarian Tea??
It might be just the thing to help you sleep.

I'm only just starting to really like tea. I never drank it much before, but for some reason I'm drinking it more now. I like green tea and mint tea, not too partial to fruit flavored tea (unless it's mango iced tea). I know there are some really good exotic teas out there, too, which I'd like to learn about.

Now I want to get a good teapot. I have a pretty china teacup that I drink my tea from. It makes me feel good.

With coffee I need a big ol' thick mug. For tea, something light and pretty.

Chai tea. Also Stash's Christmas Morning tea, eggnog tea...there are so many teas out there. If I see a tea that looks interesting I will try it, it is cheap enough and if I don't like it I can pawn it off on a friend or something.

I do like raspberry tea.

I drink it straight, no cream or sugar, and quite strong. I don't like weak tea.

I used to be a coffee only drinker -- no tea unless it was summer, and it was iced tea. Lipton's Raspberry tea... yummmmmmmmmmmm.

Although I still drink coffee, I am drinking more tea year round. Particularly green tea (trying to do healthy things for me). Years ago, I used to drink it the "English" way (or so I've heard) -- with sugar and a bit of cream in it.

Recently, I've started using honey as a sweetener, rather than sugar. Again, a healthy thing. Honey is a "natural" sweetener (not processed/refined as sugar is), plus I read somewhere that it also has anti-bacterial properties.

Green tea is good, but I must have variety. I prefer the fruit flavored regular (black, or orange pekoe) teas -- Lipton's Raspberry tea, Peach, Lemon, and Orange and Spice. I found a Cherry-Vanilla flavored off-brand tea (Bentley's, I think) that is quite good, too.

I like my tea the same way I like my coffee, and My men....... ~hot, and strong~.

Never been much of a Tea drinker as I much prefer coffee myself. Strong enough to double as bore cleaner and so black you would swear that someone dropped a "black hole" into the cup. Hot is optional as I like it hot OR cold.

I love my sweet iced tea! Just good ole Lipton is fine with me.

I am not a big hot tea drinker, but do love Earl Grey.

Master and I are playing an online game and have met a group of players from Indonesia who love some tea called Teh Tarik. I want to try it at some point as it's made with condensed milk! Mmmm!

A really good oolong is the best I've had.
I also like peppermint tea and lemon tea.

Sweet tea. I make it by the gallon for Val and myself. :-)

Hot tea I usually like just about anything herbal and I mix in honey.

I love Earl Gray, and good old chamomile. In the midwest where I grew up we used to drink Sassafras tea, which was delicious, although I haven't had it in years. Right now I'm going through a mint tea phase. Love it.

I am trying to figure out what kind of tea I want tonight. Most of the teas I want burned up in the fire, unfortunately. Like the eggnog tea *sniff*.
