how do you like your tea? green? brown? other? what flavors do you like in it? cream? sugar?

I take my tea brown with a hint of almond and a piece of lemon.
IF i cant have my brown tea, i like to have green tea with a drop of peppermint extract.

I like to have a small bowl of fruit along with my tea and a lemon poppy seed muffin is yummy too.

    I like to drink chamomile at night and during the say oolong, dandelion root or honey green tea with ginseng. I drink it black. With the holidays coming up I'll probably drink gingerbread and peppermint.

    Either Stash's Green tea or their English Breakfast black tea. No sugar/sweeteners, just the delicious straight-up flavor of the tea.

    I drink all kinds of tea but my favorites are green tea or orange spice with just a bit of sweetener.

    I pretty much stick to oolong tea for the weight loss benefits. My favorite is Maharaja chai from Teavana. I drink it with a teaspoon of rock sugar.

    Green tea is my favourite, but I do like lemon grass and oolong with just a hint of sweet.

    Depends on what kinda tea... If it's Japanese Green tea (my favorite), I drink it plain, no sugar no milk. Suuupperrrr aromatic... and nice! :D

    If it's a local tea, I would drink it with milk.

    I'm currently digging Celestial Seasonings Sleepytime Extra Wellness Tea right before bed with a one or two squeezes of honey mixed in.

    Also their Green Tea and Echinacea Tea are very good too.

    I do enjoy the Candy Cane Lane Tea around the holidays.

    I used to be a coffee drinker - and somehow convinced myself that tea was a healthier choice (hooray for zero calories!). Now I drink tea exclusively.

    I love all different varieties of tea but my favorite lately has been jasmine green.

    Here are two of tea-related questions - for all you tea connoisseurs:

    1) Does anyone else notice a taste difference when they use water that was left in a metal kettle overnight or for an extended period of time?

    2) Do you prefer looseleaf or pre-bagged teas?

    1. i do notice a not so diserable difference
    2. looseleaf is often more expensive and harder for me to get but i do enjoy it more
