Are You a Hot Tea Drinker?

[bethbuchall]

I love hot tea, and I'll drink almost anything. My favorites right now are Stash Merry Mint, Twinings Irish Breakfast, and Twinings Earl Grey. I like most of the Celestial Seasonings tea, but there are some that I strongly dislike. Wegmans has a good Irish Breakfast and plain green tea, too. I love the Merry Mint and need to remember to stock up before it's gone for the season. I tried another Stash holiday tea that I didn't like, but I don't remember what it is.

I don't like any sweetener or milk/cream in my tea, and I leave the bag in the whole time I'm drinking it.

I love Celestial Seasonings Roastaroma tea. It is a heartier tea. When I don't want to drink decaf coffee, I drink this.

I also recently discovered Bigelow's decaf English Breakfast tea. It tastes like the real thing, but a decaf version.

Every once in a while, I'll have Twinings Earl Grey and think of Capt. Jean Luke Picard, when I drink it.

I like my tea with milk & sugar and can't stand the teas that have to be made without milk, like camomile or any fruity or citrus teas.

The one exception is chrysanthemum tea from Chinatown. But, that is such a (pre-sweetened) sweet tea, it doesn't taste like a normal "tea."

Twinings white tea chai, nothing added.

Stash green tea with ginger.

Oolong I get at the local Asian store......delicious. I like that with a little sugar.

I like all tea

I drink coffee in the mornings but then stick to herbal tea later in the day. My favourites are peppermint from Teaopia, Tazo Wild Sweet Orange and Celestial Seasonings Lemon Zinger all with sugar or honey.

Actually a tea sounds really nice about now, I think I will have one.

That's so funny! I do the same thing!!!

Yes.

I drink a lot of hot tea in the cooler months. But I tend to like subtle flavors and find most flavored teas too overwhelmingly flavored with not enough tea taste coming through, which turns me off of most of the holiday/seasonal varieties, and I only drink my tea black.

Right now, my go-to flavored teas are Lipton Bavarian Wildberry and Bigelow Constant Comment. I also keep Dynasty Chinese Restaurant blend and plain old orange pekoe on hand.

I drink tea almost every day. I prefer loose leaf tea that I get in China. I'm currently drinking litchi tea.

 

[suejai]

tea. earl grey. hot.

Did you say it in your head with the accent? I did.

 

[bgirldeb]

I like Twinings English Breakfast Tea as well. Right now I'm going through a box of PG Tips. I like it with milk and Splenda

 

[tianna26]

I like almost all tea except for chai, earl grey & english breakfast

 

[Fortuosity]

I drink a cup or two of hot tea a year. Constant Comment or Plantation Mint (Bigelow).

 

[KerriSue]

I'm a purist when it comes to tea flavors--NONE for me!! I only drink black tea. I do add milk and sugar and I also like it very strong. I've never been able to get into the herbal or flavored stuff.

This is me too. I hate the flavored stuff. It tastes like air freshener

 

[Arielle22]

I drink tea every day. Orange pekoe for me. My Irish nana lived with us and gave us tea since we were infants. Then it was mostly milk and sugar.

When I traveled to TX on business, servers looked at me like I was strange when I requested hot tea in the summer.

 

[Simba's Mom]

Twinings Earl Grey. I much prefer the loose tea. And my absolute favorite is the kind that I get at the Twinings shoppe in Epcot-it comes in a black tin, and is supposedly only available in the UK and WDW. If I run out of that, I have to resort to the regular loose Twinings Earl Grey that comes in the light yellow/beige tin.

 

[Handbag Lady]

PG tips and a few drops of half and half.

 

[Lintasare]

I get my tea from Adagio. I love their Assam and Ceylon black teas. Their flavored teas are really good as well. Only do loose leaf tea, brewed for 4 min in boiling water. No milk just sugar, real sugar. To me artificial sweetners leave a chemical aftertaste on my palate.

 

[rszdtrvl]

Definitely!

My favorite tea is Sleepytime, day or night I drink it. With about a tsp. of Splenda.

I got a pack of the Nescafe Memento (that is my current ad on this page, LOL) and it was just OK. Not wonderful, just OK.

Trader Joe's duchess gray, PG tips, and Twinnings english breakfast are my go-tos. Spoon of honey and some heavy cream make it go down really nicely.
Yamamotoyama's green teas are pretty yummy, too.

Trader Joe's Dutchess Grey is my FAVORITE tea but the don't carry it anymore in my local store! Have you seen it lately? I'm curious if they've discontinued it or if my store just doesn't carry it...
Trader Joe's also has a holiday tea that Iove I think it's a cinnamon vanilla.

I'm a tea drinker. I drink it like others drink coffee. I also like PG. I like the black teas, won't touch the green stuff. I like some herbal teas but not much of a chai spice and the like lover.

The best gift my kids/DH could give me is to make me a cup of tea!

I started drinking it in high school when my mom would wake me up each morning by placing a cup of hot tea on my nightstand.
