Favorite Tea

saden1 · 03-09-2010, 08:32 PM

Mine is Earl Grey tea soaked in hot water for 1 min. Sometimes I add cream and a pack of Equal to it.

In general practice I am a fan of English Breakfast tea, straight up and well-steeped. A couple of cups a day and I am happy.

But I also like Indian chai and delicate teas like oolong or Japanese green tea. And sometimes I throw in herbal or fruit tea when I make sun tea.

Funny you ask because tonight for some reason I switched from water to Ice Tea for dinner with a squirt of fresh limon and a little surgar. My wife uses Luzianne decaffeinated which is great tea for decaf. I don't do Hot Tea often but when I do it reminds me of waking up at my grandmothers for a home cooked breakfast with her pot of hot tea when I was younger.

My wife has alargey problems so i kind of know what thats about. Business has been Ok but its been picking up as Dec, Jan and Feb. for some reason are slow months. Other then this long winter things have been going great. Grayson our 3 yr old is really coming into her own and is just talking away. As I type this she is in her crib just talking away and laughing at what ever is in that little mind of hers. She has been doing that now for about hour but as long as she is not crying its good with me. So are you getting married this summer or am I thinking of someone else on the site?

I love kids, they're adorable when they're happy and asleep...they're deplorable when they're pooping on you and screaming but then again that's what wifes are for right? They deal with deplorable aspects so you don't have to...lol

The wedding thing is still an on going process. Unfortunately the date has been pushed to Oct. I was in VA in Dec looking at venues and most were either crap or too expensive. We'll have a place picked before May though. Might even go to Skins game on my wedding weekend :p

Green tea

cranberry apple

MTK · 03-09-2010, 11:13 PM

Green, black, iced, hot, white... haven't found a tea that I don't like.

All unsweetened too, I hate the sugary sweet crap. It's not even tea.

I get that for the greens and the blacks.. what I enjoy most

a lot of flavored teas need a bit of sugar to bring the flavor out

but give me a straight green and I'm good

Totally agree. I like chamomile at night for sure. About 4 months ago I gave up all soda and energy drinks, so green tea has become a great replacement. Not the bottled stuff though. Green tea bags with no sugar added.

I also enjoy a little earl grey with a touch of vanilla soy milk(the fiancee turned me on to lt).

I will say I don't drink any tea that I'm not steeping. I don't do the canned/bottled/restaurant brewed stuff.

All said and done, I'd prefer a cup of good black coffee over any of the above.
