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 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. 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?

Almost always iced. Most definitely.

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...

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...

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.

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.

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

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.

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.
