Tea - 11-18-2006, 07:53 PM


Tea, love the stuff, hot, cold, doesn't matter to me. Nothing soothes like a good cup of Keemun tea after a long day. NOthing wakes you up like a steaming cup of a good Ceylon/Indian blend. And nothing makes lunch better than a good cold glass of Iced tea.

I cannot say the same for coffee.

Yeah...I hate tea It leaves a horrid aftertaste, unlike my friend Coffee I still rarely drink coffee though, it doesn't set well with my stomache which is a terrible shame.

China Black, Keemun, or Yunnan is best for me. Twining's Prince of Wales tea is a good one as well.

I love Darjeeling tea. The Republic of Teas makes an excellent tasting iced tea. Highly recommend trying it if you haven't.

I don't drink tea unless it's a powder that comes out of a big can, i.e. lipton. Real tea is pretty disgusting... The fake stuff, not bad at all...

I LOVE a good cup of coffee (good quality coffee, not the colored water) AND I LOVE good tea (again, not the colored water). Usually just have coffee in the morning and iced tea with a meal or during the winter, a hot cup of tea in the evening is so soothing....

Tea is iced. Extra strong. Extra sweet. Southern style.

iced tea without sugar is like, well, useless......no argument about it....

it's brewed, the sugar is added while hot until no more will dissolve. It's kept warm until poured over ice. Lots of ice obviously. And it is never kept overnight.
