    I drink plain old Lipton with 2 splenda and a dash of fat free milk.
    Sometimes without milk.

    I also drink Thai-Tea, chilled. With more milk and a few splendas. (but I drink it only if I want a little treat)

    I love tea! You should try flavoured teas, they are delicious. You can get flavours like vanilla, chocolate, caramel, fruity, etc!

    I love tea!!! I only drink water or tea because I don't want the added calories from fruit juices. (Never really drank soda anyway.)
    Its really expensive to get the good stuff though. I used to love strong black tea with milk and sugar or cream and sugar but it adds unnecessary calories.
    I typically drink 4-6 cups of tea/day.
    My current favorites are:
    Tazo Zen tea-Its a mint tea and I drink one every morning to wake me up.
    All Hawaii Islands Tea- Flavors like Guava Ginseng, Strawberry Lychee black, Passion fruit black, Mango black, Pineapple black. These taste and smell so amazing and need no additives for flavor. Sometimes I drink these iced when water gets too boring.
    Stash Lemon Ginger Herbal tea is good for evenings and sore throats
    Genmai-Cha or Green tea with roasted brown rice is really good hot or cold and if you want it sweeter a little honey goes a long way.
    I buy the cheaper ones from the grocery store. You don't have to buy the fancy stuff. Just check out the tea aisle and grab the flavors you think you'd like!!

    I am a tea freak! Hot or cold, love them both. Green teas and oolong are so good for you. But I love Earl Gray the best.

    I love peppermint or any mint tea. It helps wake me up at work without the caffeine. I also drink a lot of chamomile or sleepytime tea to wind down at night. I rarely put anything in my tea unless I'm doing a strong one like English Breakfast, then it gets half a pack of truvia.

    I love Sleepytime tea, too... that stuff is good :D
    I'm currently drinking a chai tea with steamed milk, yum.

    I like to drink green tea with jasmine, or jasmine tea - plain. It tastes soo good for me that I don't feel the need to put any sweeteners into it!

    White tea - silver needles hot & neat. I can get 4 steepings out of 3 teaspoons of loose leaves.

    A nice hot cup of PG Tips. I have mine pretty weak (I can get a whole day of tea out of 1 tea bag, lol) and no milk or sugar near it.

    If my stomach is playing up or I'm feeling generally yucky I sometimes go for Fennel Tea (I'll take that as strong as it comes - I can't tell any difference).

    I like clear liquid stevia or flavored vanilla and english toffee stevia in my tea or coffee. Cream only on occasion but I love cream in black tea or coffee. Just stevia in green or herbal teas. I love teas. My favorite green tea is Revolution Acai green tea, my favorite black tea is Numi Emperor's pu-erh black tea, and my favorite herbal is Tazo Organic Spicy Ginger Herbal Infusion Tea.

    I like Lipton's "Bavarian Wild Berry" (no sugar or cream, just black) but I don't like their regular black tea. I also found that Celestial Seasoning's "Bengal Spice (NOT India Spice which is completely different) mixed with Coffeemate liquid Pumpkin Spice creamer was the absolute bomb, but that creamer flavor is seasonal so I'm out of luck. I also like Celestial Seasonings "Tension Tamer".

    I abhor "Constant Comment"...that stuff smells like rotten oranges, although I know it has a very dedicated fan base. I just could never get into it.:laugh:

    And I'm a little weird with tea: I will sometimes use 2-4 teabags per cup. I am sure my granny would be horrified at my wastefulness, but that's just the way I like it: strong with no cream or sugar and HOT.

    straight, no sugar or milk. I drink a lot of flavored loose leaf teas from DavidsTea and Butiki Teas. Matchas I like mixed with ice water or a cold soymilk latte.
