My vote went for rooibos. There's a rooibos tea from Teavana which is called African Rose Garden and it's one of the best things I've ever tasted.

Rooibos for me, though I drink much more coffee than tea. I didn't expect to be the first one to choose for rooibos, seeing how popular it is these days.
I also like to drink green tea and chamomile.

I worked in tea trade almost 10 yrs. There are few rules to make a good tea, but easiest one is just to prepare your cup right: the cup should be warm and dry before you will put a tea leaves in it (just use boiling water and clean dry after). Fill prepared black tea leaves with almost boiling water (not boiling!) and wait for a few minutes. Easy but effective!

I am not a true tea drinker, but sometimes I like some Green, Earl Grey, Rooibos or White. I vote for Green.

I'll give a vote to Oolong, which is quite good actually. I also like black tea, Earl Grey (with lemon) and bubble tea

It often likes "Green" and "Oolong" in Japan where I live. And, we do the act of drinking mixing green tea and Oolong tea with the alcohol that is called "Sho-chu".

Tea w/out milk is uncivilized ---- Grandmum Weetabix
I prefer Indian Tea w/ milk and no sugar. Typhoo (only 1 t in Typhoo) Red Rose, Twinings, Salada, Tea India, a shock to the system.Go 2 your local wog shop and pick up some Tea India in a big red and black box.

 You destroy the real taste of tea with that... As for me, I like pure black tea the most. Oh, and I also like it with a bit of quince jam thrown in.

Actually Lipton sweetened ice tea is good too, as far as I can recall. I know it's strange that I don't drink tea, coffee, alcohol or soda (at least at home, I do indulge at fast food joints), but I figure I already have enough addictions, why should I add more?

I... I just can't find words to answer. It's so... disturbing on so many levels! I mean, yeah, you drink Nestea, it was already sick, but confessing you don't even drink coffee... Ah, I feel dirty at the sole idea of dealing with a non-drinker!  (Oh, for people who wouldn't get it:  )
