Never mind that chai, rooibos, and chamomile aren't actually teas.

Black tea. I enjoy white and green tea cold now and again, but it's just a nice treat. I have a few cups of early grey or english breakfast a day.

Black.  Usually a double-Bergamot Earl Grey in the morning and  Assam from Stash around noon.

I love Tea!

I just take mine plain...regular old tea with some milk and sugar.

I do indeed like black myself. I'm drinking rooibos now, but that, chai, green, and all the others are deviations from black. It's the only kind I sometimes put milk or lemon in, too.

I like various teas but I almost always take it plain, no nasty sweeteners in my tea thanks. Smile My favorite type is Tazo's Zen, a green tea with lemongrass and spearmint.

Black - normally Yorkshire Tea specially blended for hard water, with milk and a touch of sugar.

The thing I like about tea is tasting the ingredients.

The question for me and my deep southern compadres is not what type of tea. It's black tea all the way for me. The question is....hot....or iced?

Sweet tea is supposed to be the drink of the South or something.  I personally can't stand it.  Hot teas on the other hand I enjoy.  Spiced Indian tea in particular.  Love hot green with Chinese food.  I blame Star Trek for getting me to try Earl Grey, which I also like a lot.  Then I found Earl Grey in a green...

For me: hot, burning black tea without sugar or milk (just like women).

Another fan of black tea... Never really got into green tea, I'm afraid. I also like to drink tea straight, without sugar or milk - though I put some sugar or other sweetener (honey, agave nectar) when I make iced tea in the summer.

Mostly black, some green when i'm in a healthy mood.
Never milk, never sugar, but occasionally honey.

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! Confused

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?

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.

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".

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

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!

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.


Posted By: TheCaptain
Date Posted: December 28 2009 at 18:25
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.
