I drink all tea. Sometimes my hot tea gets a bit of honey, cold tea gets sugar and sometimes lemonade. What's the south without sweet tea? (Looks like someone took qmechanics place of digging up old threads. Not that I mind at all) |

Store brand black always fine with me. Experimented with fancy ones back when, dumped most of 'em. I'm basic! one level teaspoon of real sugar, all artificial ones, to me, just nasty

Cold - Luzianne usually; sun tea, no sugar or lemon. Hot, Twinings Irish Breakfast with brown sugar! That little hint of molasses is a good compliment to the flavor of the tea. A splash of half & half sometimes.

When I could drink tea, it was Robert Roberts.
Lyons was always fantastic as well. Hard to choose between them.
This thread makes me sad.

About two months ago I located a Scottish Breakfast black tea that’s superb when steeped for 4 to 5 minutes. Made by Taylor’s of England. It’s a FIVE star tea. Also enjoy a strong Chinese Oolong tea👌👍👍 I have been enjoying Taylor's Assam tea, but the above sounds even better. I don't like the floral bits in most "Earl Grey" named teas. Always piping hot with milk and sugar. Trying to recreate my school experience in England. Red Zinger, Minty stuff, Cinnamon, lots of herbal teas that the lady buys. Like 'em all about the same. Iced tea is fine to me, with or without lemonade. But oddly, iced coffee has never been a hit here, though coffee ice cream with dark chocolate bits is just fine. |

I’ve yet had a Taylor’s tea I didn’t enjoy. The Taylor’s English Breakfast black tea is good.....the Scottish Breakfast black tea is outstanding. I highly recommend trying a few cups👍👍 |

I drink Ice cold coffee every day this time of year. I go and work a job come out and my coffee is ice cold from sitting in the truck. Don't care for it but don't want to waste it so I drink it. |

I like most tea. I'll usually opt for coffee for a hot beverage, and unsweetened iced tea is what I drink instead of soda. For hot tea, I like the orange spice varieties.

I don't have a particular favorite. I like the Bigelow orange pekoe with the orange flavor a lot. Earl Grey is a regular. Recently I have been drinking Yaupon tea. On a long, cold day working outside there's nothing like a gourd of Argentine Mate.

Prior to 10furlongs posting in the "loose leaf tea" thread, I was pretty much drinking Twinings Earl Grey tea, Taylor's Yorkshire tea, Twinings Irish Breakfast tea, and PG Tips. I also keep a tin of The Republic of Tea Double Red Rooibos tea from South Africa to enjoy from time to time.
The loose leaf tea's I'm now enjoying are the organic Yunnan Golden Buds, Caribbean Cream, and the Vanilla Cream Earl Grey. Very enjoyable!

Earl Grey and Jasmine Green Tea are my favorites, but I'm a coffee guy.

Listed my Tetley's first page and it makes an equally good iced tea, which I make by the gallon.
As soon as the weather turns, I totally lose my hankering for iced and go to hot, until summer returns once again.

Twinings Earl Grey, Lady Grey and Irish Breakfast have been hitting the spot for me.

Around 30 years ago I was diagnosed with duodenal ulcers.
My GP had been bugging me for years to give up alcohol and cigarettes. [Back then I was a big drinker]
So when I asked him what foods I should avoid he said that I needed to give up alcohol, cigarettes and coffee.
Acting like he had finally gotten through to me, I said "Alright, alright, give me a break. I'll stop drinking coffee. Sheesh."
Now I probably only drink a few cups of coffee every year, maybe several. But when I do, it's always an espresso made by a barista.
For those last 30 odd years, I've had a mug of Liptons every morning.
In fact for the last 20 years, I have at least two large mugs of Liptons black tea sweetened with organic honey and a little milk upon awakening.

store brand (from local Tops Markets) been plenty good enuf for near forever. Letting the bag "steep" a few xtra seconds makes it strong enuf. If store brand outa stock (rare), probably go with whatever the cheapest is via the unit price tags
