What Kind of Tea?

I have been getting back into tea. Used to drink coffee but could never find one I liked unless I ordered out so I quit drinking it. Now, back to tea. I have been enjoying Lemon Giner by Bigelow lately. I like it with a little honey. Black tea is good for an energy boost like we get from coffee. I don't care for Lipton brand and usually go for green or white teas. In the Summer I drink it a lot. I got a package of large tea bags last year and we will use them this Summer for making large batches or iced tea. Add some honey and lemon and I'm happy. What type and flavor of tea do you like? Or do you like tea?

I started drinking tea last year. I quit drinking soda. I love black tea, but I also love some herbal teas. Today I had a cold water raspberry blueberry tea made by Bigelow. It's so good. Tomorrow I'm drink a raspberry black tea made by Bigelow. I also drink Tazo tea concentrate with creamer.

Interesting. I am trying to drink less soda too. I doubt I will ever quit drinking it completely. I am going to be trying some chocolate hazelnut tea by Stash that @just4him mentioned.

@JESSY3236 I don't think I've seen the raspberry blueberry by Bigelow. I'm going to look for it.

I'm a tea drinker. I don't like Lipton either. My favorite brand is Stash. My favorite is Decaf Chocolate Hazelnut. I also drink other brands. I have a few Bigelow teas in my cupboard. I don't need more tea. I have enough for a few years but I'm always on the lookout for a new flavor. It's rare when I use honey or sugar in tea.

I haven't tried that. I should cause I love chocolate. I found a couple of flavors at the Co-op when I was there last but the loos type is such a headache to keep and use so I haven't gotten more.

It is suppose to be very good for you. This type that is. If they use the oil and not the synthetic stuff.

@celticeagle I buy a cup of tea more or less a couple of times a year. I buy an organic Earl Grey tea for my husband that does not contain synthetic stuff.

I drink mostly black tea. I would have to special order the ones I really like, and they're kind of expensive. I drink coffee, there is a wonderful caramel/coconut flavor that I brew in my Kereg (I got it at the thrift shop, brand new, for $3!!) and toss in a bit of sugar and cream and sit and have afternoon "tea". I had gotten chocolate tea and a wonderful coconut tea...I'm going hunting online again to see if I can find it again.

@celticeagle The Keregs come with a mesh container that you can use the ground coffees in so you don't have to spend enormous amounts of money on the pods. Plus there are a lot of people in California that are taking them to the thrift shops because of the cost of living and they don't want to mess with measuring and all that. It's like the day I wanted to use a coffee filter and searched all over for them. I FINALLY found them in plain sight in the cup cupboard....DUH!!!

I seem to like all kinds of tea. That lemon ginger is good for your immunity and for pain as well as nausea.

I used to be on an herbal tea kick. I haven't had tea in a long time. I like just about any tea; and I like to experiment with different flavors. Have a good day.

I hadn't had tea for a long time either until I got sick this last time. Made me like it all over again. Now I am drinking it nearly daily.

I've always liked tea. I have several different varieties, such as white, green, orange pekoe, black and various flavored ones such as lemon ginger or earl grey... then there are the tisanes (herbal brews such as linden or mint, etc.) Name a flavor, and I probably have it. But my favorite brand of black tea is Ty-Phoo.

Well, the one I am doing at the moment is Tetley tea from Walmart. Cheap enough but tastes pretty darn good. I also have a variety of lemon'elderberry and chamomile too for sickness.
