    Golden Monkey is probably my favorite. It's has a great smokey flavor. I'm a bit of a tea snob so Lipton and I are not friends. And I try to stick to loose teas. Love a good chamomile at night (its good for the GI tract).

    That is part of why I drink the sleepy time. It has really helped my tummy problems a lot.

    Does anyone have any favorite decaf teas? I always drink chamomile at night, but would love to try some other decaf teas. Some teas make me feel jittery, so I tend to stay away from some of those with the chickory root, etc. type of ingredients in them.

    My favorite is English Breakfast but I also like Green, Oolong, Orange Pekoe and other red/black tea hybrids. However, I cannot tolerate Earl Grey. That stuff is just nasty in my opinion.

    I find there is a lot of difference across brands of Ear Grey. I like Twinings.

    My all-time favorite is Oolong.

    I also like Yogi brand "Breathe Deep". It's beneficial for allergic/sinus/asthmatic folks like myself.

    Poured down the drain and then using the now empty cup for coffee, aka a real caffeine fix :)

    Haha. To each their own. I don't need the caffeine.

    I recently started drinking Twining's green tea and lemon. I drink it almost every day now. Incidentally I used to work for Twinings. Years ago.

    This is the only correct answer here in my opinion.

    The citrus mint green tea at Starbucks (I think it's Teavanna) is out of this world and I think I might be legitimately addicted to it.

    I haven't ever tried any tea at Starbucks. I might have to try it sometime.

    For me...
    Jamine pearls, sometimes called the dragon pearls is my favourite tea. I buy the organic kind. It's the most delicious and fragrant tea when made well.

    If you add too many pearls or steep for too long, it can become a very strong, bitter and overall unpleasant (learned from experience). Other than that, I drink it sugar free and the leaves are so fragrant they can be steeped 2 to 3 times.

    So I'm a bit biased because my mother owns an organic tea company, but I really like the mint teas she sells! https://www.etsy.com/shop/AmiteaOrganics

    Bold, über malty Assams
    Genmaicha
    A lemon macaron white from an e-tailer you can no longer get

    Usually I'll just have a Moroccan mint, or clear green tea with lemon. Sometimes when I'm not feeling lazy, I prepare it with Jasmine and Cardamom. Then there's the prepared on the hob chai (with oolong tea leaves and milk) and on the rare occasion kashmiri chai.

    I also have Ginger/Cinnamon, Mint/fennel and corn hair/fennel frequently.

    I think Twining's was the one I tried. I use their English Breakfast and Green Tea K-cups almost every day because there's a Keurig machine where I work. I have a few fellow tea lovers friends that like it too but it just has a too strong/bad tasting to me.
