    What's your pick me up tea?
    Bedtime tea?
    Favourite type of tea?
    Loose leaf?


    My standard reply. English Breakfast or Earl Grey. And mostly Twinings bought off amazon because it's better than the stuff I get in German supermarket. I like to drink it with a dash of caramelized rock sugar and a blob of milk.

    However, since it's been getting warm here, I am popping a bag of green tea from China into a pitcher of cold water and let it rest overnight. It's the best thirst quencher there is for me. I drink that without anything else added.

    My favorite herbal tea is camomile, favorite caffeinated tea is green tea.
    I drink my hot teas plain, but as an occasional treat I will get some iced bubble tea sweetened with sugar.

    I love strawberry rose champagne, samuria chai mate, and peach tranquility as well as green tea , purchased from teavana. I drink those without sugar, but English breakfast ,vanilla chai and Indian chai are my favorite quick breast teas that I add sugar and almond milk to, those I get out of the grocery store Stash brand.

    I luvs me some tea. Two favorites that come to mind are pu ehr and masala chai. Loose leaf of course.

    But I'm not always a tea snob and one of my favorite treats is a simple iced sweet black tea. Sadly those have pretty much disappeared since I started a fitness regiment a few weeks ago. Oh sweet tea I do miss you so.

    Fortunately I can keep enjoying my loose leaf teas.

    I like green tea with jasmine in the mornings. In the afternoon, I have black rose tea. I love earl grey tea as well. I don't have any sweeteners or milk with mine.

    I have a lemongrass tea when I'm in need of a pick-me-up! Really helps with a boost of energy :)
    I drink green tea all the time, already had two cups today!
    I've also got forest fruit tea, and strawberry and raspberry tea in the cupboard which are really refreshing!

    What's your pick me up tea? - Earl Grey
    Bedtime tea? - Earl grey
    Favourite type of tea? - Early Grey
    Loose leaf? - Earl Grey

    Spotting a pattern yet? I drink way too many cups of that luscious drink with skimmed milk every day, although I do like chai latte sometimes and will drink other teas when out and no Earl Grey is available!

    Love it!
    :love:

    I recently discovered Teavana, which has been a lifesaver after giving up diet coke. I bought an infusion pitcher from Starbucks and mix different Teavana teas in it, which I then ice & drink cold.

    I'm actually allergic to green tea. It's so weird, considering it's the same plant as the black and white teas I drink, but I even got the scratchy throat after a few bites of green tea creme brulee. And it's my only known food allergy.

    I don't think I'm allergic but green tea does make my throat and mouth dry out a bit whenever I try to drink it on it's own. I can drink it if it's blended with something else but usually just stay away as I'm not not overfond of the taste....weird since I love white and black teas

    I drink green tea daily, but I have also been making sun tea every 2 days! I love it!

    It is definitely nice in the evening.

    Any fellow tea addicts out there? I've always loved tea but since starting my weight lose journey I've switched more towards green and herbal teas. I also don't drink teas with caffeine after 6pm which has helped with my sleep.

    What are your favourite teas? Any teas to recommend? I'm always looking for some good ones. I've recently discovered Japanese sencha (I got mine from David's Tea) and I just love it. Great for re-steeping.

    What's your pick me up tea?
    Bedtime tea?
    Favourite type of tea?
    Loose leaf?

    The main two teas I usually drink are grean tea and chamomile tea. For a while, I was trying to replace soda with tea. I should really try that again.
