    I adore Good Earth Sweet & Spicy (they have caffeine free too) very cinnamony... and it tastes very sweet without adding anything. I love it hot in the morning and Iced all day.

    This is my all time fave as well. MMMmmmmm... I also like to add a bag of this to my water bottle. I don't even need to heat up the water first. I toss the bag in the night before.

    My son bought me a Cuisinart tea brewer last year and a bunch of tins of loose tea. I use the appliance either to boil water (it uses less electricity than a stove) or to brew tea. I got rather addicted to loose tea and tend to drink it all afternoon in winter and fall when I'm home. My favorite flavor is earl grey, but I have a wide variety of green teas and chais. Roobios is also very nice, with lots of antioxidants. Camomile is good for relaxation I actually had some leftover and put it over ice with a little sugar and it was very refreshing

    Tetley Black. It's British and pretty full of caffeine and delicious! I love all of the Stash Tea that I've tried, my favorite is the white chocolate though. Tea is delicious :)

    I don't drink traditional tea, but I do enjoy Korean honey citron "tea" which is like a marmalade you can add to hot or cold water. Great to soothe a sore throat or warm you up! Every now and again I will have some herbal peppermint tea, celestial seasonings has a good one.

    A true tea is made with camellia leaves (camellia sinensis) and that's what makes green tea, darjeeling, matcha, sencha, etc etc etc

    I just love tea!! I don't usually want the caffeine, and so I'll choose something decaffeinated or herbal, like decaf green from Savemart (it's their store brand, and very good, BTW!!) or rooibos, or chamomile, peppermint etc. Trader joes has a decent selection, as does Cost Plus Imports! I really DONT like a tea which contains added flavors. I only want to taste whatever herb they used.

    Numi brand is expensive, but very delicious.

    If you don't mind brewing using bulk herbs instead of tea bags, you could buy here

    You could make up your own tea bags by purchasing bags from bulkherbstore.com

    Stash double bergamot Earl Grey - so delicious.

    One of my favorites! I am a sucker for Earl Grey. I also love Stash Moroccan Mint. Tazo Zen and their version of mint tea (I put one of each tea bag for a great mix). If I am in the mood for fruity, which is rare Tazo Passion.

    I love tea, especially in the fall. I don't drink coffee at all.

    If I am using a traditional disposable water bottle with the smaller spout I cut the string off from the bag since I won't be able to retrieve the bag later.

    Tea is for Brits.

    Oh, I have loved various teas hot and cold over the years. Tazo had some of my faves, hot chai tea being probably my all time fave from them.

    However, I also noticed over the years that whenever someone offered me some iced tea and I was really impressed with the flavor and asked them about it, it never failed that they said it was just Lipton iced tea. So Lipton is my go to for iced tea, love it.

    I'm probably weird though for thinking Lipton is great. So be it.

    My favourite is Tetley's Earl Grey with vanilla (which I have to order online, can't find in stores anymore :c ) followed by their green tea with lemon... then their Redbush with vanilla, which I drink in the evenings as it's caffine free like all redbush tea ^-^

    Bigelow Earl Grey. You don't even need sugar or cream. It smells amazing. If I could find a way to wear it like perfume, I would!

    I find tea to be a good placebo when I want something sweet but dont have the calories. My fave brand are Bigelow, Tazo and Stash. My fave flavors are: English Breakfast (caffeine in this is comparable to coffee), Earl Grey, Constant Comment and Chai.

    Edited because Autocorrect is stoopid.

    I LOVED the Lipton Mixed Berry green tea for my iced tea when they had it. I don't think they make it anymore, because I can no longer find it, and I haven't found anything else I liked as much as that flavor.

    Luizianne (sp?) has a nice normal black tea for iced tea, too.

    For hot, I like Chai.

    Yogi, Egyptian Licorice. It's naturally sweet. Tastes like having dessert.
