    Chai tea :heart:

    Not a chai fan... i try but its just not my thang.

    you're not a Chai fan but you like tea?

    You do know that Chai literally means tea right...?

    Exactly! Finally someone understands :flowerforyou:

    Chai is tea with milk... I like tea, but not with milk, sweetner, lemon, or anything. unless I'm sick cause then I'll add honey

    Where it originally came from (such as from my country), the definition of tea is chai (or cha). It can be with or without milk, generally it is with milk though.

    Adagio Teas has a wonderful decaf spiced green tea that will remind you of the holidays every time you open the container. Great stuff.

    If someone hasnt said it already but a nice Chai is good. I like the Twinnings. I also head to a tea shop not far from me and they have an excellent pumpkin chai (loose tea). I also like Golden Monkey which is loose though I haven't found it in a store yet! \\

    Chai is nice because it so flavorful that its kinda like eating something but without calories if you drink it black like me (with splenda)

    I just found Stash White Christmas tea. It's White Tea with Peppermint and Ginger. Yummy!

    Good Earth Super Green Tea Matcha, Sencha and Orange. Not seasonal, but delicious. I order it through Amazon subscribe and save, but I've seen it in just about every grocery store in my area.

    There are so many great suggestions here!!

    I love Harney & Sons teas. They sell a Holiday tea at Williams-Sonoma this time of year, with almond, cinnamon, clove, orange and nutmeg. So delish.

    I drink their English Breakfast, Tropical Green and Parisian teas regularly too. They are a little expensive, but sooo good they made it easy to give up my high calorie afternoon lattes. :)

    Celestial Seasonings have SO many wonderful flavours! My new favorite is a peach/acai berry blend. It's so tart and tangy!

    I am not a fan of black tea and I stick to decaff. My favourite teas are the Pukka range, they have beautiful teas and the packaging is funky. Tea pigs have unusual mixes. They are worth a cup or two.

    I am partial to mint green tea, mint teas, jasmine tea (but only in restaurants, just not the same at home!) I like calming teas.

    I am not fond of camomile tea or fennel/aniseed flavours however I find that my tastes evolve as I get older and drink teas I would have never drank when I was younger.

    Trader Joe's peppermint tea!
    and I add unsweetened cocoa powder to it. :) A lot cheaper than some of the premium brands!

    and the mighty-leaf's green tea tropical is really really delicious

    Holiday tea: Celestial Seasonings Sugar Cookie Sleigh Ride is very good.

    There are also lots of different varieties of Roobios teas.

    Chai by Bigelow is good - Chai by Stash tates like red hots.

    I am a huge tea drinker. My favorite tea is Tazo's Joy tea that Starbucks sells...the only problem is that it is only available during the holiday season. It's a blend of black, green and oolong teas and I love it!!! I usually stock up everytime I go to Starbucks during the holiday season.

    I recently started making my own blend of this tea - one English Breakfast Tea bag and one Green Tea bag - it's pretty good and this way I can enjoy it all year long!

    I also found a Stash blend - Christmas Morning - which is supposed to be a blend of Black and Green teas. It's pretty good, too.

    Hope this helps!!!

    Rooibos teas are my fave right now. Tazo & Teavana are both good, but I'm hooked on the Kalahari Red Tea - Camps Bay Chamomile.

    These aren't really holiday flavors but Tazo Passion is my all time favorite, Republic of Tea Blackberry Sage and also Vaniilla Coconut are really good too.

    God both of those sound delicious; must find them!!! Love the Tazo Passion tea myself.

    I don't really do the pre-bagged tea (Lipton, Celestial Seasonings, ETC) Go to a tea shop and sniff some out. Right now my favorite is a Market Spice Roobibos ... We call it Fireball tea when brewed it's a neon orange. It's caffeine free and doesn't need milk or sugar it's so spicy and sweet.

    Republic of Tea's Orange Ginger Mint. A little bit of sugar, honey or splenda and it is amazing! I am a true addict!

    I do al ot of pre-bagged tea. I like it but some people are tea snobs :)

    I recommend these:

    Lipton Mandarin Orange Green Tea
    Lipton White tea island mango and peach
    Lipton Herbal orange blossom and hibiscus
    Lipton Green tea white mangosteen and peach

    I just realized that these are all Liptons

    Davidstea (which you can find online in CA and USA) sells a lot of teas and they are fabulous! My favorites are Read My Lips (tastes kinda like a peppermint hotchocolate... kinda being the key word) and Creme de Menthe (a pretty good replica) Red Velvet Cake (is AWESOME) Persian Apple is good and there are many many more good ones out there.

    i love davidstea too! i seriously have a tea problem i order so many!
    i can spend hours online looking up reviews on steepster and then putting hundreds of dollars worth of tea in my cart which i never purchase. all the flavors just sound so freakin good!!

    Check out Teavana, they have a ton of yummy teas.

    At Teavana just don't let them over sell you. A half pound of tea is too much for most people. Also if they weigh it and it goes over ask them to put it back. As about the prices of the tins too. Some stores are fine but others are very pushy trying to make commission.
