Title: Any tea sippers here?
Post by: FlameOfCallandor on January 18, 2007, 02:25:04 PM
What kind of tea do you like and how do you reccomend making it?

I want to improve my diet, so instead of coffee and soda I am going to be drinking hot tea and some ice tea.

I like Twinings.

Go to the grocery store and get one of their variety packs.

No, I don't like sweeteners in my tea, but sometimes I add a little milk which takes the edge off of it.

FoC, I hate you and I hope you die, but coffee ain't bad.  Just make it a morning thing.

But yeah, tea is good, but get off the bags, they are shit compared to the real thing.

I use one of these.  Cheap and easy, and REAL MAN TEA:

Why do you hate me?  :( I didn't do anything to you.

I'm really a likable guy if you met me.

There's nothing wrong with coffee if you're not putting sugar in it. I'm hoping you're not fucking stupid enough to be replacing sugary drinks with sugary tea.

Well I figured there was less caffine too.

I can drink team without sugar, but I cant drink coffee without sugar.

My family has never had anything besides teabags. What's wrong with them and what type of tea do you guys suggest that can be found in any supermarket?

I like Tetley or Lipton for regular tea once in a while with sugar and a bit of milk, and I don't like iced tea. I'm one of the pickiest eaters/drinkers you'll ever meet.

It's not so much they are awful as it is being hard to go back once you've had the real deal.

Well, certain bagged teas ARE awful, namely green tea and oolong.  The nuance of the flavors is lost in tea bags.  Black tea is fine bagged, though.

When I was in Florida I had a roommate who would always drink what he called "Chuh-mime-all" tea. Me and my other roommates had no idea wtf he was talking about.


turns out it was chamomile  :lol
