What Tea do you drink?

Question

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tea

Variety (green, black etc), Place of origin or blend (Earl Grey, English Breakfast etc), Bags or loose, with milk &/or sugar or without,

hot or cold? Brand or buyer (Tetley, Twinings). Where purchased?

Do you reuse the teabags like my granny did? Mugs or cups and how many a day. Teapot ?

Answer 1

I love earl grey tea i dont have milk in tea so i enjoy it but it is decaff with sweetner and it is twinings and i buy it from morrisons when i go shopping

Answer 2

English Breakfast tea - preferably Twinnings or Fortnum and Mason but Tetley will do if not.

Bags - so much less mess and with one sugar and lots of milk!

Reusing teabags is grimi - the tea never tastes the same!

Before I became pregnant I drank 5 cups a day but I've cut that down to 3!

Answer 3

I used to hate tea, but am now really getting in to it.

I like black tea, preferably either Earl Grey, Lady Grey, English Breakfast or Ceylon. It has to be loose leaf. With honey, but only with milk for the English Breakfast. Generally i use Whittards.

White tea is also good, especially iced.

Always a mug. 3 or 4 a day on a bad day, 0-1 otherwise. Always a teapot.

All this because my doctor has told me I have to give up coffee. Apparently 42 cups in three days is not very good for you.

Answer 4

A lemon and Ginger tea (YOGI organic) with bit of honey in the morning. Couple of Mugs of Roobiosh (caffeine free tea-ish herbal tea) or a decaf tea with milk during the day. And a couple of Mugs of peppermint tea in the afternoon/evening. I am also partial to the camomile and honey blend byTwinnings. I also drink other herbal teas on and off. I do reuse ordinary tea-bags as I am a tea wuss, but I keep herbal ones in my mug to the bitter end! Generally all the bags I use are organic and worthy (fairtrade etc.)
There is a 'Women's Tea' that YOGI do which is a nice mix of ginger, cinnamon, orange,fennel, and a ton of other stuff which claims to: "help a woman maintain her inner balance, amplify her potential and manifest her creativity" Which is a big claim- but if it does do that- a total bargain at 1.89p for 15 bags!

Answer 5

Would have to be PG or Tetley, although I've now progressed to just drinking the boiled water instead.

Must admit that it does taste better in a china cup as opposed to a mug, but you get more in a mug. Never re-use them though plus in the habit of 1 bag per mug, made in the mug not a teapot.

Answer 6

I love a good black tea(Lipton Yellow label) with sugar and no milk ever anywhere near my tea I also love peppermint tea, yummo. No I don't reuse the tea bag, my nanna used to feed the tea bags and the tea leaves to the elk horn plant out the back. Probably 4 mugs a day, maybe more if it is really cold or I have a tummy upset.

Answer 7

Morning I have a pot of tea, with real tea - a blend from Whittards, which is English Breakfast tea, throughout the day I drink Clipper organic teabags and at night a cup of Clipper organic green tea or jasmine tea. Most of the tea I drink is either Indian or China - I love green tea, hot or cold. And any tea bags, yes, we do recycle either by composting or by placing around the base of plants in tubs/pots.....

Answer 8

i drink only earl grey in bags with sugar and milk. Tea always taste nicer when it is hot. I drinl a mixture of Lipton and Twinnings. I don't have the habit of reusing teabags. Usually I drink once a day.

Answer 9

Black, English Breakfast, Lipton
hot with milk and sugar
usually 3-4 cups that makes approx 1 teapot.:)

Answer 10

I like Assam tea. I like it black or with lil milk n sugar.
I like TATA tea the Indian owner of Tetley. Tea bags are nice.
Dont reuse tea bags. Its cups and about 3-4 a day.

Answer 11

I drink five roses tea. a black tea in South Africa. I choose teabags. About 6 or 7 mugs a day. Used teabags go in the bin - sometimes used to "age" documents for my kids' school projects.
