    Silver Needle White Tea from Teavana- heavenly.

    Oolong tea is also very yummy, mine is loose leaf.

    I also like green tea and Bigelow's Vanilla Chai.

    Teavana's Weight To Go tea and any of the blooming teas are awesome, too. The blooming teas start off as a dried ball of leaves, when it seeps in the hot water it opens up & blooms into a beautiful flower!! Definitely use a clear glass container to watch it bloom before your eyes. Very cool!!

    For hot tea, I LOVE chai.That's definitely my favorite. There's a vanilla chai one that I totally love.

    For iced, I love fresh peach tea with actual peaches in it. That's my default summer drink. Yum.

    The one I mainly drink lately is Mother's Milk, which tastes like black licorice. I don't actually like black licorice, but the tea is supposed to be good for lactation, so I dutifully down a few cups a day. Yay, lactation.

    I get my tea from a company called haraki-gordon. I steep tomama-cha green tea in the morning, it has a spinachy undertone to the taste which I love, and at lunch I use Matcha powder (also a green tea).

    Celestial Seasoning's "Nutcracker Sweet" - It tastes like cheesecake to me

    Zhena's Gypsy Tea's "Pumpkin Spice"

    There is a tea salon not far from me which offers over 70 different flavors hot and iced. Some of my favorites there is the Lavender Tea Latte`, The Iron Buddha Oolong, and their Oriental Beauty Oolong.

    I'm really digging the Tazo Zen Green Tea (not Starbucks, but brewed at home), Kalahari Rooiboos, and the ginger lemon mint I got from a lady at work. Would love to try some new ones.

    I LOVE their Tazo Passion and also make it at home and save tons of money...We drink it cold...:drinker:

    I spent several days at Miraval - a lovely spa vacation in Tucson, AZ and was introducted to Mighty Teas. They are sooooo fabulous. My favorite is the Orange Dulce - a wonderful black tea with vanilla and jasmine blossoms. Yum. The bags are material - not paper and the result is a lovely relaxing cup of tea.

    Ooo! I'm excited, they sell loose leaf tea for my tea infuser.

    I just bought some loose leaf teas from Teaopia. I didn't brew a cup yet, but hooooooly coffee beans does it smell AMAZING. Particularly the Cactus Fig Green Tea... If it tastes like the smell, this may be my new favorite non-coffee beverage.

    Let me know after you've tried it. I love figs...

    i like all of the teas.

    on a cold dreary day, lapsang souchong. because drinking scotch at work is frowned upon.

    Sadly, here also :frown: but sometimes we have wine and beer :bigsmile:

    Southern Tea from The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf - It's black tea with rose petals!

    I also like english breakfast, jasmine green tea, or earl gray tea with salted whipped cream (sometimes with boba pearls and coffee jelly).

    :D

    I'm only a fledgling tea snob; I dream of the day when I can afford to cultivate my tea addiction with high-quality product. (Side note: ever notice how serious tea drinkers and marijuana enthusiasts have a lot in common? Lol) Right now, though, as an unofficial sort of "Bottom-Shelf Gourmet," I'm a fan of Maitre de Thé lotus green tea as well as Riston blackcurrant black tea. Those are among the cheaper brands my local supermarket stocks. xD

    I will also never turn down a cup of Earl Grey tea, no matter the temperature--it only gets better when it's cold. Also, I like chai tea, because something about the blend of spices just makes it taste like Christmas.
  • I have an obsession with David's Tea, and lately it's Forever Nuts, Banana Nut Bread, Cookie Dough or Sleigh Ride. Also, in the summer, Goji Pop over ice... MMM!!!! And the best part is that each tea doesn't really need milk or sugar (that black one's like Sleigh Ride I might add a dash of milk) and with nothing they are 5 calories or LESS per cup. Addicted, and help curb my sweets cravings!

    I have just got into organic Roasted Dandelion Root tea made by Traditional Medicinals. It really curbs the appetite amongst other good things for your body.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE tea, I even have a home tea corner :happy:
    My favorite.... hm, not an easy question, but I guess it would be jasmine.
  • Twinings Lady Grey or Twinings chai, both with a bit of milk.
    I also like Pukka's ayurvedic teas, currently enjoying Three Tulsi which is slightly sweet.
    I don't mind green tea but I'm not crazy about it either.
