What's your favorite tea?

How has no one mentioned that great tea that they sell at Aveda? A relaxing spa day in a cup! Heavenly!

I like regular black tea (English breakfast, Darjeeling are favorites). Brands like: Ahmed tea - get it at rodmans, also Lipton and twinnings.
Sometimes to spice it up add a slice of ginger or mint leaves, sometimes a slice of lemon or milk. For ease and convenience drink the tea bags, but when have time and want to treat myself then prepare from loose tea leaves, tastes much better than anything from a tea bag (including all the fancy and super expensive and organic tea bags).

ooh lots. I like black teas and fruity teas primarily:

Yorkshire tea is our daily
Eastern Shore Black Raven black currant
Eastern Shore Blood Orange black tea. Recently discovered that Wegmans has this local brand and I am looking forward to trying many more flavors because it hits the black tea/ fruity tea sweet spot.
Twinings Honeybush Mandarin and Orange
Harney & Sons - black currant, midsummer peach, mango black, bohea
Celestial Seasonings Coconut Chai

I love Mighty Leaf-their Green Dragon with a bit of cream is so good! All their teas are amazing, pricey-like $9 for a box but some things are just worth it to me-I don't drink alcohol so this is like good wine I guess.

I love The Good Earth sweet and spicy tea. I love anything with sugar but this is so naturally sweet (with cinnamon too) that you don't need any. I buy on Amazon.

My favorite loose black teas are Copper Knot Hongcha (Teavana) and Eight at the Fort (Harney). DH goes to Asia frequently and brings me green teas with unreadable labels. In bag tea I like Stash. I detest Earl Grey but not surprised so many posters mention it - it is ubiquitous, and a constant source of mirth for DH at restaurants or Ken. Center, it's amazing how often that's the only black tea they have. (I always bring me some Stash teabags just in case.)

Teavana no longer carries Copper Knot Hongcha. Bummer.

I was at a Thai restaurant in Malibu, CA, and ordered a green tea. It was so good, I made them go get me the packet and now I buy it online.

It's Revolutiontea.com and it's acai green. The smell is divine.

I only add honey if I have a sore throat.

For a quick teabag we use red rose but I miss Tetley's.

Otherwise we have a bunch of loose black teas, but not Earl Grey!

PG Tips, avail in Giant, Rodmans, etc. Taylor's Assam. Earl Grey & Darjeeling. All with sugar and a little milk, ideally, but sometimes just sugar.

If you are trying to kick a coffee habit, I really recommend Roastaroma by Celestial Seasonings. It is caffeine free (though it does contain gluten) and makes a great coffee substitute - very earthy.

Ingredients: Roasted barley, roasted chicory, roasted carob, cinnamon, allspice and Chinese star anise.

Also (I'm the coffee tea PP) a fantastic substitute for hot chocolate is Chocolate Pu·erh by Numi.

Ingredients: Organic Pu?erh, Organic Cocoa Powder, Organic Vanilla, Organic Theo Chocolate Cocoa Nibs, Organic Rooibos, Organic Orange Peel, Organic Nutmeg, Organic Cinnamon.
