    Golden Monkey is probably my favorite. It's has a great smokey flavor. I'm a bit of a tea snob so Lipton and I are not friends. And I try to stick to loose teas. Love a good chamomile at night (its good for the GI tract).

    That is part of why I drink the sleepy time. It has really helped my tummy problems a lot.

    Does anyone have any favorite decaf teas? I always drink chamomile at night, but would love to try some other decaf teas. Some teas make me feel jittery, so I tend to stay away from some of those with the chickory root, etc. type of ingredients in them.

    My favorite is English Breakfast but I also like Green, Oolong, Orange Pekoe and other red/black tea hybrids. However, I cannot tolerate Earl Grey. That stuff is just nasty in my opinion.

    I find there is a lot of difference across brands of Ear Grey. I like Twinings.

    My all-time favorite is Oolong.

    I also like Yogi brand "Breathe Deep". It's beneficial for allergic/sinus/asthmatic folks like myself.

    Poured down the drain and then using the now empty cup for coffee, aka a real caffeine fix :)

    Haha. To each their own. I don't need the caffeine.

    I recently started drinking Twining's green tea and lemon. I drink it almost every day now. Incidentally I used to work for Twinings. Years ago.

    The citrus mint green tea at Starbucks (I think it's Teavanna) is out of this world and I think I might be legitimately addicted to it.

    I haven't ever tried any tea at Starbucks. I might have to try it sometime.

    For me...
    Jamine pearls, sometimes called the dragon pearls is my favourite tea. I buy the organic kind. It's the most delicious and fragrant tea when made well.

    If you add too many pearls or steep for too long, it can become a very strong, bitter and overall unpleasant (learned from experience). Other than that, I drink it sugar free and the leaves are so fragrant they can be steeped 2 to 3 times.

    So I'm a bit biased because my mother owns an organic tea company, but I really like the mint teas she sells! https://www.etsy.com/shop/AmiteaOrganics

    Fenqqing black dragon pearls
    Bold, über malty Assams
    Genmaicha
    A lemon macaron white from an e-tailer you can no longer get
    Maple pecan oolong from the same defunct e-tailer

    Usually I'll just have a Moroccan mint, or clear green tea with lemon. Sometimes when I'm not feeling lazy, I prepare it with Jasmine and Cardamom. Then there's the prepared on the hob chai (with oolong tea leaves and milk) and on the rare occasion kashmiri chai.

    I also have Ginger/Cinnamon, Mint/fennel and corn hair/fennel frequently.

    I think Twining's was the one I tried. I use their English Breakfast and Green Tea K-cups almost every day because there's a Keurig machine where I work. I have a few fellow tea lovers friends that like it too but it just has a too strong/bad tasting to me.
