It's green tea with lemon. Maybe with some honey. But I haven't drank any of it in a long time...so it might suck balls now.

The reason I liked it-it didn't taste like shitty green tea whether it tasted like green tea or not.

And the powder...it's kind of like koolaid except koolaid needs sugar in my opinion where the lipton green tea powder does not. I put in the fridge and have ice in it in my cup?

Sounds cool enough, but I still brew my own green tea. :/

Blah. Want more tea right now but I have a feeling it will put me to sleep.

I'm about to go to sleep either way-tea or no.

-has some juice-

*makes green tea for herself*

I love tea with sugar and honey, now I'm loving more sugar than honey because of work and honey just smells funky when the tea isn't fresh

Hrm, I really don't like hot tea myself. I prefer sweet iced tea. It's what a lot of people that live in the southern part of North America live on for those of you either out of the country or in the north. I remember going to a restaurant in Ohio. My mom ordered some iced tea and the waitress looked at her like she was crazy. >.<

I would've looked back at her and been like...Tea...with ICE. It isn't that hard.

Sweet ice tea is awesome. And the only tea I can sometimes stand hot is green tea .-.

Iced tea yay! Ooooh what a coincidence, I'm actually drinking Iced Tea myself. *sips*

I've tried honey the odd time, usually when it was the only thing available. I'm not as fond of it because I'm not as fond of the taste. I stick with raw sugar mostly, though lately I've decided to be fancy and try this German Rock Sugar stuff from the Teavana store. Pricey, but one can get away with less of it. It's made from sugar beets instead of sugar cane. Not sure what to make of it yet, but it does the job. :)

I am both a tea and a coffee person.

I like green rice tea and normal regular coffee, Espresso is too strong for me and I don't like it.

I like the rice green tea and when I do have coffee it's usually plain. I'm not one for strong coffee though I will have a Turkish coffee (so I've heard it called) when I visit my sister. Her husband makes it with cardamom. Doesn't consider much else real coffee. ;)

Iced tea is nothing strange to order up here, but it will pretty much always be lipton or soda fountain stuff. It tends to be quite sweet as it is, though from what I understand, probably near as much so as the southern sweet iced tea.

Alright. My tea has become in invasive species. Need to go through it now and decide whether I actually need to keep all the 50+ kinds that I have (I counted. definately 50, plus the assortment of loose satchets kept in a couple cookies jars. Probably another dozen or so in there).


EDIT: so I noticed that a lot of the teas I like have cornflower petals in them. This leads me to think that perhaps I like cornflower petals. So, I pull a few out and nibble on them for a bit. Now I think that they are in the tea to make it look blue.

My wife and I are tea FIENDS, and I drink a TON of coffee. We have a whole cabinet full of tea and coffee. My favorite tea is Earl Grey, with spiced chai coming up second, but it's rare that I find a tea that I don't like. My wife likes sweet black tea best. (You have to put the sugar in while it's still hot! If you put the sugar in after it's been iced, it's tea with sugar, not sweet tea, a very different flavor.)

I've even experimented with some of my own blends because I tend to get a lot of looseleaf (Teavana sometimes, and a small tea shop in Memphis with a huge selection others) and I've even tried making some of my own herbal tea from fresh herbs. I think my favorite so far was to take some dragon green tea from the tea shop and mix it with some lemon basil from my father-in-law's garden that I toasted and crumbled.

Coffee I'm something of a connoisseur as well. I'm quite picky about my coffee. Anything made with robusta beans is automatically out unless I'm desperate for the caffeine. (And then I'll drown it in cream and sugar.) But if the beans are of good quality and properly roasted, I love the complex flavors of coffee, especially strong, dark-roast coffee. I've been known to drink espresso as if it were normal coffee. (Why yes I do have a caffeine tolerance. I'm also ADHD so caffeine levels me out instead of making me jittery. Weird, huh?)

Maybe not. I find coffee levels me out too. I started getting caffeine headaches in college when I averaged 5 cups of STRONG black tea a day. I tend to forget about my tea if I'm not watching it, though my stomche seems to have lost some of it's iron lining so I try to avoid oversteeping these days.

I've never really thought of blending my own tea. The most I do is mix an herbal tea I have with Yerba Mate when I drink it, because straigth Yerba makes me a little quesey. One of my favourite teas is actually a blend make by the wife of the man who runs a teashop at a botanical garden not far from here. It's a mixture of black teas with Lapsang Suchong (may have spelt that wrong) among other things, so it's nicely smokey but without over doing it. My gradnfather, apparently, used to live on the smokey Chinese teas.

Heh. I used to work at a Tim Hortons (Canadian coffe shop chain and cultural icon for people who don't know ;)) and a small video on coffee was part of the training. Apparenlty there are only two base coffee beans, Robusta and Arabica. Arabica would be your actual coffee beans, and Robusta would be your augmented grow-in-colder-weather-where-coffee-doesnt-normaly-grow coffee beans. They apparenlty make up a lot of the supermarket instant coffee stuff.

Not a coffee drinker except on rare occasions (I've had one cup since Christmas) but the history of it is fascinating. :). Watched a relatively recent documentary on the topic.

I love tea, my favorite right now, would have to be Earl Gray Tea, or English breakfast. I don't have much of anything so I just get the packets from the walmart around the corner. I hope to one day be able to actually have a "Tea party" Haha. I remember two years ago I went the the "Womens Tea" at my sisters church. I think in the 2 hours we were there I drank the most tea. xD

Hee hee. "High Tea" is one of my favourite things to do. We found a bakery out of towm where one of my sister's lives that does it (you need to call ahead of time to arrange for the number of people since they need to make all the tiny sandwhices and desserts. :)). The Fairmont Hotel in the city here puts it on too, and I went with a friend and some people for her birthday. Pricey, but good. The usual faire: a few kinds of sandwiches, some fruit pieces, tiny desserts, and little scones with 'preserves' and Devon cream (yum1!).

My new birthday tradition is to hold a tea party. Third year this year. :). I hardly ever drink and being at boozeheavy parties gets to me a little, so tea it is. ;). This means cucumber sandwiches. I'm not much for making the things but every tea party must have cucumber sandwiches!

Twinnings has a tea sampler box that you can get at Wal-Mart up here. It's blue, and has Earl Grey, Lady Grey, English Breakfast, and Irish Breakfast. Lady Grey and Irish Breakfast are my favourite of the box, but it's a good pack. My mom and I used everything in it. I'm not the biggest

I'm not the biggest fan of English Breakfast, but it's okay when I want more plain black tea.

I'm too much of a coffee fan to drink tea anymore...unless... *starts making tea*

I loooove cucumber sandwhichs xD
Ill have to get one of those boxes xD

Cucmber sammiches?
I'd rather have tomato and goat cheese sammiches

Goat cheese, yum, though I'm not a fan of tomato.

It depends, for me. Cooke tomato is ok. Not all raw tomato is though.

Sure, if the tomato is seasoned and cooked into another dish, particularly if it's not large homogeneous chunks of tomato, it can be good. But just ordinary uncooked tomato, like you might find sliced on a sandwich... blah, don't like it.

I like them in a grilled cheese. =D

Cucumber, watercres, tuna salad, salmon salad, are among the standards apparently.

Not a fan of tomato either, barring roma and if it's in bruschetta. :).

My mom is making the cucumber sandwiches for my tea party this year. I'm going with little endive boats with goat cheese and maybe some balsamic. Candied nuts and dried cranberries are standard too.

Reminds me of a blooming tea flower that I put out as a decoratoin last year that ended up looking suspiciously colourd and smelling somewhat like tomato. That was rather odd since it was supposed to be jasmine.

... Depends who makes it.
I like coffee if it's iced and creamy.
I like tea when it's green and lightly steaming.
...
I'm picky.

Rinni is a caffiene person in general, which includes tea. My favorite tea is mint, which I grow myself in my backyard. >u< Said mint plants have been growing since before I was born, so they've got experience in tasting good. :3

Heh. I've been trying darn hard to find some 'mint' tea. All I seem to be able to get my hands on is peppermint when I'm pretty sure it's spearmint that I'm looking for. I finally did some across some but I didn't check the label enough and it has green tea in it. >.<

Not that I object to green tea, but I wanted some herbal stuff. I've already got black tea with mint. It's almost as bad as trying to find lemon black tea wihout other stuff like myrtle, ginger or ginseng.

I started drinking green tea since December. Somewhat for the taste and joy of it, but also because I read an article about skin cancer and sunburn, and remembered a doctor telling me I'd have skin cancer by the time I'm thirty because of this gnarly burn I got once while skiiing ;___;

So I sort of freaked out and started drinking tea like I was dying of thirst, and now that I've calmed down I still drink a cup or two every day just because I like it :3

I don't drink green tea much, unless my stomach is bugging me.

I understand the skin cancer thing. The pills I take make me sensitive to sunlight and especially likely to get it so I need to wear suncreen all the time. It's fortunate that I don't like it much to begin with, so it's all long sleeves for me. I live in a cloudy area though. That helps.

My sister has pre-cancerous skin but so far she hasnt' had any nasty problems. Usual stuff, covering skin and sunscreen. I haven't heard the tea thing though.

I'm suppose to drink tea because I'm cold and I'm feeling a little under the weather but I decided not to have tea, I should brought my vocaloid travel coffee cup to work so I can make tea but I forget sadly

I just left a travel mug at work rather than bother to bring one every day. But we have a pile at home. I only brought it home once and a while to wash it properly. My work (at the time) had a good tea stock, though it was all Numi stuff. More than one person wrote a note just asking for some plain eary grey. Not that fond of Numi myself. I find that there is always crud floating on top of my tea when I make it. I guess it comes off the bag or something.

I seemed to have cut myself down to two cups of tea a day. My doctor will like that. I think maybe my stomach is tired of being overloaded with the stuff. Drinking less black tea now, especially with milk and sugar in it, and leaning more towards green and white.

I think I've thouroughly saturated myself with black tea now. Finding I can't really drink more than one cup a day now without it feeling heavy. Time to have at that stack of green tea I've inherited from other people. I think I have a few different brands now - at least Twinings and Dilmah. Some Kombucha from Yogi tea, (love that stuff) and a couple random green and white things from "David's Tea" or something like that, stuff I got for christmas.

I like the David's tea stuff. Comes in little ciagar tubes. I've burned through the earl grey and assam banapasty (not sure if I spelt that right) already. Moving onto the wisky white (white tea with some kinda wisky thing and something sweet, not sure if it's the one with candied nuts in it.) Not my usual taste but it's there so may as well try it.

Still haven't opened my Teavana stuff. I'm not even sure I remember what I bought. Organized my tea tray and I have many little bags in different colours all faceing me, and yet I still go to that box of red rose almost every morning. Maybe that's the stuff I'm getting sick of?

I love tea. I would drink it so much that it doesn't even phase me like coffee does. Which I guess is a good thing when I start school again in the Fall. Coffee and I will get to know each other during the semester, but during breaks and when I finish, I will go back to more tea.
Even then I still drink more tea. Every time I go away to school, my family will send me off with more tea than I know what to do with. Last year my aunt gave me a sampler pack. :P When I go to school I always end up buying more tea from the store when I go shopping.

Heh. Yeah. I was up to around 5 cups a day when I was in college. I just had one cup that never really seemed to empty. My kettle got a good workout that year, especially since I was the only person who thought to bring one.

I like Yogi. I have their Kombucha that I picked when they didn't have any gogi berry. I think I just finished off the last of it. Will need to do seek out more.

Not as fond of pomegranate teas as I thought I would be. I still prefer the juice or just eating one of the things.
