The tea thread

[Giggly]

This thread inspired me to buy English Breakfast and some of that Yogi Kombucha Green tea I mentioned earlier, in addition to the Darjeeling I bought earlier today. Now, once again, I have way more tea than I could possibly drink. Thanks a lot...

Does anyone have some self-control they could spare?

hahaha I saw that. I go nuts with it too. Don't resist, just let it happen. Ahhhhhhhh

(I rated my own thread 5-stars cause I love it so much. lol)

Earl Grey and a little lemon and about half a cap of milk. Fortnum and Mason is the best I've had.

I am! And I'd love to serve you some.

*sits down*

My absolute favourite is green tea with lemon plus some honey added to it (half of teaspoon).

This thread inspired me to break out the Earl Grey tea... I brewed it in my special teapot and am now sipping it with great enjoyment- and a dash of milk.

Can the kitty have some? Earl Grey with a little lemon and some honey please. ^_^

Mmmm. Teaaaa.

My mom makes kick ass ice tea. I get to indulge soon when I go home.

The Darjeeling came in the mail yesterday (fast shipping!). I enjoyed a cup this morning, and it's absolutely fantastic. It came in a neat container too. Oh, and they gave me a free little sample tin of some vanilla-smelling tea.

So yeah, Adagio Teas. I'm definitely impressed.

OMG I totally bought some fancy and hopefully romantic tea when I was at Dean & Deluca today!

I am drinking some homemade chai tea. It has small chunks of ginger and whole spices floating at the bottom of the tea and that is what's making it taste spicy.

Omg! When I went to Kashmir 7 years ago, I had THE BEST chai I've ever tasted in my life. Life just isn't as good now that I can't drink it anymore. I tried making my own but it was harder than it looked in the recipe.

I especially like green chai, black chai, and any kind of tea with licorice in it.

I finally had a cup of this and it's sooooo good.

I'm drinking twining's lady grey black. So yummy doesn't need anything except water to brew the tea.

 

[Kasper]

I could go a tea right now! Chai, Chamomile or Peppermint. Straight up black, don’t mess with perfection!

Or iced tea with lemon... mmm

I have some nice gunpowder tea right now (green).

never tried that, sounds good! Anything to seal in the flavor...

 

[substitute]

Single estate Assam, milk and one (demerera) sugar, please.

But if you've got coffee, I'd prefer that.

It's kinda funny how, just when coffee overtakes tea as Britain's favourite beverage, Americans get interested in tea!
