I love tea. I mostly drink English Breakfast tea and sometimes I drink Darjeeling. I rotate between sweeting it a little and drinking it "black."0

I drink this tea:

I never sweeten it. I think it is good as both hot tea and iced tea.0 -
Good Earth Sweet and Spicy tea - highly recommend this - no need for added sweeteners in that it's got enough sweetness alone
others:
green tea
irish breakfast tea (love the stuff from Trader Joe's)
mint medley
cranberry apple
and just plain lipton - I use this to make iced tea.
I generally drink tea with no creamer/milk or sweetener. Beauty in simplicity.0 -
I drink either peppermint tea or decaf earl grey tea. I don't add anything to my teas.0
-
Right now my favorites are Bigelow Green with Pomegranate or Blueberry0

me too! bigelow (or lipton) green tea with blueberry and acai is really delicious! i also get the lipton diet green tea with mixed berries, but that does have artificial sweetener in it. and i sweeten my hot tea as well with sweet and low. if you want to skip the artificial stuff, agave nectar, honey, and raw sugar are slightly healthier options than traditional white sugar.
good luck!0 -
I love tea!!! I drink almost everything!Iput no sugar or honey, just cinnamon!!!!Try it!0

My office has a Flavia coffee machine. There are a few different kinds of teas, but my favorite is the white tea with orange. It really doesn't need a sweetener, but sometimes I add a thing of half and half and one splenda packet. Yummy0
-
Pretty much any kind I can find!
Green tea in the morning, ginger and lemon tea when I don't feel well, any kind of fruity tea in the evening. Chocolate tea in the afternoon when trying to shut up the chocolate craving. I have a David's Tea below my office so I try loads of different kinds. I don't put anything in any of my tea.0 -
Awesome:) Thanx everyone! Yeah I'll need a variety..chocolate is a weakness of mine usually..so having a "treat" tea is a good idea. I bought Peppermint today since I have nausea regularly....I have Green tea,and Red Raspberry too...So i'll go buy some others and make my "tea stash"...lol0

i just drink unsweet black iced tea with lemons.0
-
I love Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice. It's a caffeine free herbal but tastes like chai. It has a tiny amount of stevia in it, so no need to sweeten. It's good hot or cold or even with a tad of non-fat or soy milk to make it like a chai latte.0
-
I drink Assam and English breakfast with milk, and nettle tea straight.0
-
Dropped pounds since green tea! Pineapple and peppermint Are my two faves xx0
-
Yogi teas do a liquorice tea and a 'choco' tea, both naturally sweet. Caffeine free and seems to make food you eat at the same time taste super good too.0
-
Stash brand Jasmine Blossom Green Tea is great unsweetened and has some very nice health benefits as well.

My go to tea is Taylors of Harrogate's Scottish Breakfast tea, with their Yorkshire Earl Grey being a close second for hot tea. For iced, well, I just go with good ol' Lipton. And oddly enough, being a Southern boy, I've finally managed to develop a taste for unsweetened tea.
I also enjoy a cup of Tazo Chai and Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime tea every now and again. I do like a little sugar in the Sleepytime tea, makes it taste like Juicy Fruit gum.0 -
I drink green tea, no sugar. But coffee with a bit of milk is what keeps me from being hungry.0
-
Some teas I drink are:
My favorite is Spearmint (I get that as loose leaf, and it's bright green and smells and tastes so good, I don't need to sweeten it).
Also various types of green/white tea. There is a good one from Tazo called Zen (it has spearmint, lemongrass, stuff like that to make it more interesting). Yes, I sweeten these with stevia (otherwise too bitter).
Rooibos (Numi is a good brand). Sometimes sweeten, sometimes not. I use coconut milk creamer.
I also sometimes get treat flavored teas from David's Tea or Tea Desire (they have all different, interesting and yummy flavors).
And Ginger tea.
Occasionally I try other flavors (especially on the holidays). Cinnamon tea is also good.0 -
"Jasmine Blossom Green Tea" Oh, I like that one too. I also love this orange one we got as a gift, I can't remember what it's called. But usually I'll have the green tea, Earl Grey, or this wonderful pumpkin spice tea I got at Trader Joe's last year.0
-
At the moment I like combining different teabags. Rooibos & raspberry, chocolate & peppermint (tastes like After Eights!), honeybush & apple and strawberry and rose are my current fave combinations. Other than that, green tea, white tea and Earl Grey.0
-
I drink the STASH teas for cold, quick tea drinks. But usually, I brew my own green tea or oolong tea. Both are great aids for weight loss and just overall health! Enjoy!
Oh and I don't sweeten ever. If I'm in the mood for it sweetened, I just use pure Organic honey or some Organic coconut sugar crystals.0 -

I love my PG Tips and Tetley's!0
-
I love Red Bush tea (Rooibos tea) black no sweetener needed, it's caffine free packed full of antioxidants. Highly recommend it, tastes amazing, much nicer tasting then green tea!0
-
All the teas!
Right now I have a box of orange pekoe - because everyone needs a breakfast tea. That's the only bagged tea in my pantry. The rest are loose leaf because loose leaf = yum. I personally prefer most teas plain but in a case of a chai or some bolder black teas a little milk/almond milk and sugar is lovely.
I have a honeybush that's been in there for about a year because it's much. It's nice to add to some of the more plain/bitter teas to sweeten it up but I can't drink it plain, it's far too sweet and flowery.
The ones I'm really enjoying currently are green. There is a plain green tea from touch organic that I drink a ton of as well as the 'superfruit' green from teavana. I'm not a big fan of buying from teavana, they're just close by.
I've recenlty fallen in love with Matte. It's a really great coffee alternative and is pretty mild and versitile, like a lot of teas it comes in a lot of different blends from fruity to spicy. I'm in love with Chai matte blends. OMG a little almond milk and tiny touch of sugar and it's to die for.0 -
Usually Earl Grey or English Breakfast. Sometimes I mix them with green tea. I do not like sweet tea so no sweeteners for me.0
-
Green Tea
Earl Grey Tea
Roobis Tea
Camomile Tea
No, I do not sweeten it.0 -
My favorite tea is Twinings Camomile, Honey & Vanilla. It is such a treat.0
-
Dude, Tazo Vanilla Rooibos. It is so super sweet and smooth. Doesn't have the itchy dry throat happenings like some other tea.0
