What is your favorite type of tea? Do you like just pure tea or you drink flavored one? Do you add sugar, lemon, honey or milk etc?
I love to drink tea. It is perfect for relieving thirst and it just tastes good. I like to have it with sandwiches or cookies or whatever else. I usually drink it in the morning during breakfast and in the evening. I like green and black tea. I usually don't drink flavored teas, but one of the few flavored ones I like is a black or green tea with cinnamon added. I also like to have my tea with honey and lemon, especially if I am ill. I also like some herb teas, that help me fight the flu or something. I drink tea with sugar, I add two teaspoonfuls of it.
I guess that's all from me.
Now it's your turn to share your preferences!:)

I love green tea. I orginally didn't like the flavor of it but after a few days of making myself drink it, I really enjoy it. (Please pardon any typos mykeyboard is messed up) I really like Lipton Raspberry green tea and their citrus green tea. The benefits to green tea are great! I just wish it wasn't so expensive..

I like the green tea too. I think I've tried that Lipton Raspberry tea too, if I remember correctly it was very enjoyable too. You can also try Lipton Honey&Lemon tea, it tastes great too, but still, the tea you flavor up by yourself tastes best! Thanks for sharing!:)

Hello Biomechanoid. And yes, like you, I love tea. Tea is love for me. I am in love with green tea (Sencha leaves) as of the moment. I have read that it is a very good anti-oxidant and lowers down cholesterol. I also read that it is effective way to avoid headaches. Before, I am not really aware that tea has a lot of health benefits, before I drink it because it tastes great, I noticed that it sooths and relaxes me. I also love milk tea, my friend gave me this milk tea, I forgot what country it came from, but it can be dissolved on cold water, and it tastes so good. It refreshes you know. I live in a tropical country, so during summer, I know I can still enjoy a tea even it is cold. I also enjoy black tea with lemon, and teas that have ranges of fruit and herb infusions. Thank you for the discussion.

Good to hear, that you're also totally into tea! I've also heard about beneficial effects of green tea, it must be a very healthy tea. Haven't tried that milk tea yet (of course if you don't mean tea with milk). Cold tea is good too, I think it's called ice tea or something. I tend to take a bottle of it with me when I am going to the beach in summer, it cools me nicely down. Thanks for responding to my discussion!:)

In my case, I like black tea with sugar or honey and milk, or green tea without any sugar or milk on it.
I drink it for breakfast too, as it's a great way to start the day
Also, with this cold weather, it's always warm and makes you feel confortable when you drink some hot tea.

I like these both types of tea too, I usually don't add anything to green one, maybe just a little bit sugar. I agree, it's a great way to start the day and holding a hot teacup in your hands warms you up when it's cold, tea tastes especially good then. Thanks for sharing!:)

Green tea is good too! I like the special flavor of the green tea. I don't exactly know, what is the Chai tea, I only know, that word "chai" means "tea" in Russian:D
Thanks for responding!:)

I Like Black Tea without or With Milk, It Doesn't Matter, Or Just Hot Water,Some Sugar and Smashed Lemon in It... Delicious Tea... Main Thing-It Must Be Really Hot, If The Tea is Only Warm, Its Not Taste Anymore.

I like black tea too, I usually don't drink it with milk, but I also add lemons sometimes. And I also agree - tea must be hot, only then you can get a full taste and enjoyment of it! Thanks for answering!:)

You seem to be a coffee person. In my case, I like both. I usually drink tea if it's late and I don't want to shake myself up with having a coffee. Lipton Yellow Label tea is good, I like it too. Thank you for your answer!:)
