Fine I'll drink it without milk, but with honey.

HAPPY NOW?

Coffee does indeed suck. And I rarely have tea but when I do, I drink black. Chat was talking about chai a couple days ago and I'm curious about it now. Might have that soonish.

Oolong is decent.

I usually have green or a blend of black with peaches, apricots, and ginger that they sell at Disneyland. It's called Mad Tea, appropriately enough.

Always hot. I don't like non-hot tea at all.

Non-hot tea is indeed terrible.

I like many hot teas, though I don't drink it often enough to have a real favorite.

Non-hot tea is disgusting. And so is coffee.

Earl Grey isn't particularly pleasant.

I like good quality breakfast tea (Twinings or Bettys and Taylors of Harrogate), milk and half a teaspoon of sugar. Lovely. Revives me after a tough day at work :)

For those who don't like tea - have you ever worked in an office? I found that's what got me drinking tea.

As for tea, well, cinnamon tea with honey is out of this world.

I'm confused why I can only choose one option. I love all of those teas. :( Except maybe Oolong, but whatevs.

My new favourite member! This is a man who knows how to drink his tea! Twinings or tea rooms all the way (and going for the upmarket ones as well!)

Betty's tea with a good jam & cream scone sounds like a jolly good way to partake in refreshments!

Vanilla and chocolate chai aren't too bad.

I like most kinds of tea. Green tea the most, followed by Earl Grey. Hot or cold doesn't actually matter to me either, although green is usually best cold and EG is usually best hot and regular sweet tea with or without lemon is always good anywhere between warm and somewhat cool. I drink coffee with or without sugar and milk/cream, too. You people are ridiculously picky.

Coffee. Jamaican blend. Double strong, double sweet.

Oolong is fine.

Bitter Melon tea is what's hard to drink. It's a once in a while sort of tea.

Followed by PG Tips with a dash of milk.

Followed by Earl Grey with just hot water.

I lived in York for three years and whenever I go back I always pick up some Bettys tea bags. The tearoom blend is definitely my favourite tea. I love Betty's - I had a job interview at their head office once - the job was great but probably a good job I didn't get it, as their staff canteen served Bettys food at a discount. I'd have doubled in size!

You can't go to York without going to Bettys! It's just so tasty. DISCOUNT BETTYS!? I'M THERE!

Some teas taste much better with honey in them though.

You can never go wrong with a good chai blend. FUCKING BEST.

I do enjoy a nice green tea though as of late I have been really enjoying a nice Nepal Black. Nice and mild but good. Also, My Cup of Tea's Tan Yang Red with Sakura Blossoms is fucking amazing. I pretty much like all teas.

Honey is permissible to add to tea, especially if you have a sore throat.

Best thing ever is when Bengali co-workers make chai. OMFG.
