And the all time favorite is Earl grey. Geeky as it is, Captain Picard got me to try it with the whole "Tea. Earl grey. Hot" thing. Tried it, loved it, drink it most days.

Oh yeah and there's a good tea that's naturally low in caffeine without being treated. Daintier tea, grown here near the Daintree Forest.

Both of these.

Ah, we're all kinda alone!


Just noticed my typo. It's Daintree tea.

A friend of mine is a singer and I've been getting a sore throat so she recommended this tea to me: chamomile tea with lemon, honey, and a bit of children's benadryl. Didn't help my throat much at all but it was quite good.

honey in tea is a Godsend for us singers.

Rooibosch tea is caffeine free and very low in tannin naturally.

Yeah my mother in law drinks it and loves the stuff.

Could never quite acquire a taste for it myself, sadly.

OOOOOOOOHHlong is by far the sexiest sounding tea, and surprisingly tasting...

Have you tried mixing Earl Grey and Lapsang Souchong? Make a brew with 3:1, or mix the loose leaf in a tin or whatever airtight thing you have. It's yum. I also love Liptons Ice Tea, have been known to walk out of a shop with four 500ml bottles at once, you can get 1.5l bottles from supermarkets, but they usually only have the peach flavour which is not as nice as the Lemon, or the green tea ones, they do Lemon or Orange. There is a mango one too, which is a bit strange. I'm lucky cos where I live there are loads of asian shops which always have it in stock. I love the fact it has no artificial additives and only natural sugar, no aspartame, the only additive is ascorbic acid as a preservative. Ascorbic acid is vitamin C.

That blend sounds delicious!

And yeah I'm with you on the aspartame. I have an ear condition and I've noticed that ingesting aspartame triggers it like MAD. Reason enough to stay away from it, let alone any of the other possible issues.

And Liptons lemon ice tea is pretty nice on a hot day, I agree. That peach stuff is vile!

Is this good enough to join the club?

Those flavoured green teas look interesting. Haven't seen em in our shops.

Too much?

No.
There can never be too much.

Currently drinking Tasty rosehip tea with hibiscus. Nice stuff. Shame the store didn't have any eucalyptus tea (as it would help with my cold), but this tea does nicely. As does my remaining Natureland night cup herbal teas.
