I like green tea with mint. Im not coffee drinker as i hate the smell of my piss when i drink coffee

I don't drink coffee. I drink a fair amount of tea. I like my tea very very weak and cool or room temperature. Sometimes I drink it plain, sometimes I add a lot of lemon, depending on the flavor. Other than that I am not picky. I often brew it at the wrong temperature and for too long, and I don't taste the difference (possibly because I make it so weak). I like green, black, rooibos, herbals, etc.

TERRIBLY NEWS
TEAVANA IN MY MALL IS CLOSING DOWN BECAUSE THE MALLS RENT IS TOO HIGH

So I have to search for more loose leaf suppliers in town.

Maybe. The longer you brew tea, the more bitter it gets because the bitter stuff comes out last. Since I constantly add milk or sugar to black tea I don't notice as much as with green or white, which get bitter quite fast. I try to avoid over steeping now (easy to do because I like strong tea) because my docs were giving me some flack for it.

I used to drink coffee, when went to tea, then finally started with coffee again, first as a Sunday after dinner thing because we always had it, and then because I noticed that it helps out some of my gut troubles. The fact that I was working reception at a law firm at the time was completely co-incidence, I assure you! Nothing fancy for me though, just regular old drip coffee.

Not a fan of rooibos, myself, but I am taking a liking to oolong now.

Sucks that you're losing it! I only know of one Teavana around and I'm not sure they are still there. I should check their stock sometime. I am still on my quest for more pu-erh tea. I buy most of my stuff online now, once I know what a store has, which does not help a location pay rent.

Yeah I really SHOULD start buying everything offline but I still like paying cash for everything, and am the kind of person to pay my bills in person XD
I also finally made room in my cupboards for my tea instead of having it sit on top of the microwave XD

I got some tea boxes today. Some citrus tea, a different citrus tea (I love citrus teas <3), and a green tea. All bagged. My family has loose leaf but I don't like stuff getting in my mouth x'D.

iam a totally coffee person! i need my coffee every morning i like tea too but i just dont need it ^^

I hear coffee is supposed to mess with your hormones. I don't really know since I do not drink coffee. As a stereotypical southerner, I am a Tea person. I prefer to make my own Tea than buy it at a restaraunt.

I've heard people say bad things and the opposite good things about both tea and coffee, so I sort of ignore most of it. Habits seem to be more important than the actual drink.

For example, whether one loses or gains when when they quit drinking coffee depends more on how many calories a person has in their "coffee" in the first place. (milk, sugar, flavouring syrup, mocha, whipped cream, etc.)

I've been told to avoid having too much strong black tea is bad for my already iffy bones, (not sure why, but maybe too much tanic acid) but I've already read in several places that tea (especially with milk, of course) is good for your bones.

So yeah.

Citrus teas are really nice, if you consider caffeine-free herbals "teas" to be, well, teas. Orange and Spice? Sign me the heck up.

Haha, I consider dried-stuff flavored-water teas so long as it's not coffee xD.
Both of the boxes are Orange and Spice--only while the tea from one box is good for, a regular cup-sized drink, the other one gets super sweet and dark really fast.

If I'm really sleepy, I eat chocolate instead of drinking coffee xD

There are people who drink coffee right before bed. Coffee is supposed to make you wake up. PLus if you eat chocolate before bed, you get better energy in the morning. Milk chocolate before bed is supposedly help you have good dreams. I hope thats true lol

There are some people that get sleepy when they have caffeine. That's the sort of person who'd have coffee before bed, I think. :P

I happen to have just finished drinking a nice cup of tea. Tazo vanilla caramel chai, with a bit of honey added. It sounds so pretentious when I type it out.

Oh wow, that sounds like fancy tea.

My mother gets sleepy when she drinks caffeine--but she drank it in the morning anyway xD. (We don't have coffee anymore though.)

Chocolate makes me have better concentration and feel less need for sleep--but it doesn't keep me from falling asleep xD

I have two cupboards of tea. I'm gradually moving them into tins, because we have mice, though they haven't invaded my tea yet.

I buy online since it's convenient, especially since I used to live in an area where the nearest tea place was a couple hours away. Still, I prefer to buy online only if I know what I'm looking for. I prefer in store if I'm browsing, so I can look at and smell the options, and inevitably get into conversation with the staff about tea. Also, free samples. :)


I get nerve jitters a lot, or that's what I call them. I think things like coffee straighten them out enough that it's easier to sleep, even if I'm less tired. It just gets my brain back into some manner of order instead of constant mental channel surfing.

FYI, dark chocolate is considered great study food.
