    Sooo, right now I'm imbibing in a beautiful lemongrass green tea. It really is amazing. I made a cup of my own personal stock of Jasmine Oolong tea for my mom... which is a big thing because it's special to me and delicious and rather expensive.
    Tell me what kind of teas you love! I demand it... :grin:
    And if you don't drink tea :slight_smile:eusa_naug ), you should. It's very good for you and delicious.

    A lot of different things...
    Constant Comment is a good one.
    I like lemon-y teas a lot, and minty ones, and strange green tea mixes. Don't really have any expensive tea though, just the cheap drop a bag in some hot water ones.

    One southern stereotype I DO fit: I loooove iced sweet tea. As in I order it any time I can't find another drink I like on the menu, and I can barely stand hot tea any more.

    Hmm, I do tea, well and good, I was brought up on the stuff. I had my own little mug when I was weenie. ^^ A little Peter Rabbit one...

    Hmmm, no sugar, and a little milk for the bog standard stuff, though Twinnings has to be my ideal brand, Liptons and the like only when Twinnings can't be found...

    I also like Herbals and Fruits, but the top of the list has to be Rubush, it's just divine.

    Oh.. that sounds good. I'd like to try that. EXPERIMENTATION TIME! :grin:

    And Twinnings actually makes good teas. I like the sampler they have out there that is Irish Breakfast, English Breakfast, Earl Grey and Lady Grey teas. I'm not a huge fan of tea bags though because it can taste kinda cardboard-y at times. Loose leaves make my life better hahaha

    Tea bags go stale very quickly,hence the cardboard taste, keep in a small airtight container if your not going to use them quickly. :thumbsup:

    I love tea!! :grin:
    I like chamomile, green tea, jasmine tea, and all other sorts of teas that my mom buys.
    My mom is actually having a tea party next week. People come, drink tea, and order exotic tea from a catalogue. XD

    I like Lady Grey for something strong and various fruit flavors in the evening. And I love plain iced tea with lime and just a dash of sweet tea on a hot Texas day!
