tea


I'm a tea (and coffee) person. Do you have a favorite?


Right now I have really been into Chai Marsala.


Ooh, that sounds good. Do you make it up yourself, or use bags? I have friends that mix it up themselves using Red Tea (Rooibos) leaves as the base, and then add the spices. Yum!

I grew up on tea, lots of tea, and the tea produced for American palates is too weak for me so I either buy British, Canadian, South African, or Indian tea bags, or use leaves. My faves are Rooibos, Earl Grey, and English Breakfast. All time fave Tanganda Ceylon from Zimbabwe, but very hard to obtain.

I prefer to make it up myself , but i do have bags for quicker tea enjoyment on those days you just don't have the extra time.. I like English breakfst too. Never have tried Tanganda ceylon , but have heard good thins.

I switched it up. I am now drinking cabernet instead of my usual pinot noir. Scandalous!

We're having a heat wave here in Michigan---the temperature was above freezing---so I was drinking an iced Tazo Chai tea Latte at Starbucks today.

Last night I had some delightful black sambuca, which my more alcohol-acquainted friends don't seem to like, but I quite enjoy. I'd like more. Right now though, diet Irn-Bru! I'm sure all you Scottish-hating bastards will like that eh? EH??

I have a love affair w/sambuca. The considerate owner of the local bar I inhabit up north keeps it in stock just for me. God bless him.

Cabernet is more reliable, but a good Pinot is really good.
