Tried Earl Gray, but didn't like the anise flavor it had. Does Lady Gray have that same flavor? If not, I might try some.

Bergamot (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bergamot_orange) flavor, not anise. Lady Gray also adds lemon and orange peel.
Old-fashioned chai with soy milk.

Me and I'll proudly claim it!
I've taken to making my chai the old fashioned way. And seriously, it is SO GOOD.
You boil your tea leaves in a pot (yes boil!) for a few minutes. Then you add whole milk or soy milk (I prefer soy actually!), sugar if you want, and let the pot boil for a few more minutes. Strain, and serve!
Zomg, so good.

I only really drink lemon tea. And usually the powdered stuff that tastes like it should be a remedy for colds. I really like that, unsweetened to the point where it makes your jaw clench. I'm not a big fan of sugar, and don't have it in any hot beverage.
Mint tea is quite tasty though. :)
I don't drink 'regular' tea at all.

Sometimes I like tea - Earl Gray - hot. Sometimes Lady Gray. Either of them straight.
Most green teas like Oolong are good straight up also.
Mostly I drink herbal teas.
Red Zinger requires a bit of sugar or honey.
Any apple/cinnamon mixture is good, but Good Earth Original is my favorite. Sometimes I throw in an Atomic Fireball. :D

I have always LOVED a good, solid cup of coffee. I've been roasting and grinding my own beans for years! Puerto Rico produces an excellent crop, although it's in short supply as most goes to the Vatican, but there are many other varieties and estates world wide that reliably produce fine beans.
I only drink two cups a day, but I expect those two cups to be of sufficient body, fullness and complexity of flavor to carry me through the day or evening. For me, tea just doesn't do it.

I haven't really tried many different sorts yet unfortunately. I usually drink bergamot-flavoured Earl Grey tea with some milk, sometimes honey if I have sore throat. Green tea I prefer without anything added. Lemon Ice tea is nice as well, but most are sweetened, which I really don't like. Guess I'll have to make my own.

Don't like regular tea... My favourite is Indonesian jasmine tea - "Te Cap Botol" to be precise, with white sugar in the mornings. Never drink milk in anyway.
Gunpowder Green Tea is also nice, got a taste for it when I lived in West Africa.

I like gunpowder tea too. Seems to be mellow to my mouth. I hate that sort of metalic tang of tea that has been steeped too long.

No really, I like Celestial Seasoning's herbal teas, with a touch of sugar or honey. My favorite is the green tea one with raspberries.

as a bit of the southern boy/girl... I LOVE sweet tea. I travel for a living, and it drives me crazy when I go into a restaurant and ask for sweet tea and they look confused.
so they offer cold unsweet tea and suger. But you can't properly sweeten cold tea... you have to sweeten it hot then let it cool.

I have just recently revealed my tea addiction to my fiance who of course is a full blown coffee fan. I hid it well only occasionally having tea and having coffee with him all the time but it came to a point where I had enough well okay so he kinda figured it out and made admit to my addiction. So I proudly stand here and say Hi my name is Bianca and I am addicted to tea.

Ahh yes it is. We can put out our selection of teas at the backstage coffee station and they will gather dust until we get some Brit tour in and they wipe us out complaining about the Yanks drinking 'bitter brown water.' I doubt that most Americans really are aware of how much that coffee is a political protest going back to 1773 when GB passed the Tea Act, the full title of which is An act to allow a drawback of the duties of customs on the exportation of tea to any of his Majesty's colonies or plantations in America; to increase the deposit on bohea tea to be sold at the East India Company's sales; and to empower the commissioners of the treasury to grant licenses to the East India Company to export tea duty-free.) Which in an odd way, lowered the price of tea in the colonies.

I mostly drink that dark stuff they add a bunch of chemicals to, Tradewinds is my fav, Arizona is too acidic. I drink it to curb my insatiable appetite for carbonation which I'm trying to gradually end. Anyone try Yerba mate? Good times. White is better than green. I guess I like alot but ok...plain red (rooibos) and chai are my favs.
I must try the frenchpress thing!

It depends on the tea.
My FAVORITE is Earl Grey with milk and sugar.
Any kind of black tea I'll usually add a little sugar.
Fruit teas or white/green teas I won't add anything.
