which tea?

[Susie]

Yorkshire tea (blend for hard water) or Earl Grey. Or camomile. Or mint tea with mint from the garden, don't like the tea bags.

And I can't stand weak tea. My mother's tea is HORRENDOUS. I mean I'm fond of her, but, God, that awful tea!

rose hip tea made from pick hips i dry out
flower teas, lavender , elderflower, rose
and not forgetting nettles

Cool. Moroccon mint tea has mint from the garden in it but also a green tea bag brewed in with it... with a touch of sugar it is lovely.

The three teas i'm trying at the moment are all by Twinings. It's certainly distracting me from drinking so much Lavazza coffee.

For me its Earl Grey (Lose tea) any brand will do!
I like it with cheese and crackers.

Ahhhh... Earl Grey.

Although recently I am enjoying Sainsbury's Taste the difference Jasmine loose leaf tea. Really quenches the thirst, so refreshing, warming, comforting... Whatever you need it for, really!! I didn't take to it the first time I tried it, but after a wild swimming holiday in Yorkshire, I couldn't get enough of it to warm up with after a swim!!

[baldybloke]

Usually Sainsbury's Organic loose tea with a bit of Earl Grey mixed in. You just can't beat a good cuppa.

I need to try Jasmine tea.

Yogi Licorice - yum!

[Millymollymandy]

Yay - loads of tea adverts ------------>

[Annpan]

Ooooh, I have one for a tea bag making machine..... how peculiar.... I might go have a look

[Green Aura]

That's weird, I've just realised I've not been getting any ads, for ages! Where are they - I demand spuriously linked ads with my Ish

Oh and back on topic, since the gal has moved in we're now buying Tetley's Extra Strong as well

[noplasticbags]

Twinnings English Breakfast in morning, and a gentle Earl Grey in afternoon.

didn't realise I was so addicted until first time I went abroad and couldn't get a cuppa - was crawling the walls by day 2!

Like the chai latte idea - will definitely try that - I buy it in powdered form at the moment but it's quite expensive

Which plant is it? Jasminum sambac? I read recently that it has to be kept at a minimum temperature of 13 - 15 degrees C?

[mrsflibble]

for a big pot:
Asda decaf 2 bags
asda decaf earl grey 2 bags

I also like mint tea when feeling kinda crappy, fruit teas when needing a bit of a fruity pick me up (cherry or blackberry) and jasmine occasionally. I use feverfew tea for hormonal migraines. i dont know if it works, but i take it when i feel one coming on.

and I drink beef tea too..... good ole' bovril!!!

Rintons delivered to my door every two weeks without fail by Shaun... oh and too many bisqueets to mention...
