No fair to represent coffee and not tea!  >:D

*edit*

Forgot to say, feel free to add something if you think it's a "no duh!" category I missed.  But please don't add an option that's already up there!  Thanks :)

Raspberry flavored and iced.  Or good old fashioned sweet tea, Y'all.

Hmmm. Depends on the sort. I sometimes drink it plain without anything... really strong. But sometimes I like iced tea with a bit of sugar. I like green tea, too, so hot that it almost burns.  ;D

Amen to that, I think each kind has a way it is best!

Mmm...tea...haven't had tea for *ages* (been very naughtily living off coffee. Literally :P).
However, I love Earl (or Lady) Grey and normal tea (each with one sugar and a bit of milk, and fairly weak - none of this leaving the teabag in for a few minutes ;)), and as for Chai Lattes...mmmmmm... :icon_dribble:

Oh dear, you've got me going now. Who started this thread?!!! >:D

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.

Depends on the tea, Ms. Tea-lady. Stronger teas sweet and with milk, weaker teas straight-up. Some with a splash of honey, some with equal and Long Island Iced Tea? Not at all. :)

And some teas that works for as well.

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. :)

Lots of sugar, lots of milk.  Unless I'm drinking green tea, peppermint, or jasmine, then just sugar.

I like my tea iced with a bit of lemon & sugar.

Otherwise, I'm not really a big fan.

Stevia and Soymilk for black tea~  Which I have everyday~

The rest of teas I generally drink with either a bit or no stevia.

And of course... Chai Latte's.

I drink green tea and iced tea pretty much with nothing added. I drink regular  hot tea if there nothing else available maybe with a little lemon.

How long do you want the list to be?   :laugh:

I generally don't drink black teas anymore because they are too harsh on my stomach.
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

Just out of curiosity, is that cuppa from the replicator in your ready room?

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.

QuoteEither of them straight.

Can we still use that word nowadays? :D  (Just kidding!)
