I'd like to hear about your tea drinking

[Trafalgar]

What brands? During the day? What times of day? Etc., Etc.

 

[Random Orbital Bob]

Why?

 

[G S Haydon]

Lol Charles. At home it's Twining's English Breakfast, at work it's Miles Original. I have a soft spot for PG Tips as their comercials were part of my youth https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HWI1f2Nk1OI

No sugar, whole milk, any time of day it's on offer.

 

[Harbo]

PG Tips
Twinings loose leaf Darjeeling with a pinch of Assam, Twinings Lapsang Souchong, Twinings Camomile, Twinings Peppermint.
No sugar and a splash of skimmed milk in some.
I used to be a coffee person but now have to drink tea.

OK , I'll bite. Tetley for most cups , with lemon and sugar. For a treat I'm fond of Twinings Earl Grey , Lapsong Souchong or Irish Breakfast , no lemon. Nearing end of day , Tetley Warmth or Relaxation herbals , no lemon and touch of cream 18percent.

I drink it like crazy. PG Tips mostly, but Twinings otherwise. Thanks for responses...

Twinnings English Breakfast. I once tried Clipper but thought it tasted very chemically. Maybe it was a bad batch?

For many years, decades, I was a great tea drinker but then quite suddenly developed an allergy, "burning mouth syndrome" (look it up). Now I daren't even take a mouthful of the stuff.

 

[Yorkshire Sam]

Yorkshire Tea ...... of course!

 

[Ed Bray]

Typhoo at home, Yorkshire or PG Tips at work.

Skimmed milk, 2 sweeteners. Lots throughout the day.

Co-op "Indian Prince", gorgeous.

[cgarry]

Yorkshire Tea or PG Tips when I am slumming it at work.

 

[Vic Perrin]

Only drink one cup of tea and that is last thing at night, Only half a cup of Tetleys touch of milk one sugar and then topped up with whiskey.

Roger - that's truly awful, is there no remission/recovery? :shock:

It now seems in rather poor taste for me to rhapsodise about my favourite tea - Barry's Gold Blend, morning, noon and night.

BTW: Slightly odd to classify tea as a hand tool, but I guess I always have one close to hand when I'm working and it's probably the one I reach for most frequently.

EDIT: With a bit of effort I'm sure we can make tea the new sharpening? Loose-leaf/bags/pot/diffuser/mug/cup/milk in first/milk in last/lemon/sugar/skimmed milk/leaded milk/steep for 5 minutes,...

Tesco own brand, about a gallon a day.

No, but at least I'm lucky to have found the cause of my burning mouth syndrome, others have not and suffer greatly - there have been suicides.

 

[wizard]

never drink it

Hello,

What a fantastic question

Yorkshire tea, English Breakfast, with skimmed milk and almost anything else, as long as it is brewed strong enough to stand a spoon in. And constantly, keep them coming, I've been known to have 3 mugs on the go at once!

Mike.

 

[novocaine]

Tetley in work, it's what they supply.
Yorkshire at home, it's what the wife supplies.
somewhere between 5-15 cups a day depending on method of arriving at work (drink less tea when cycling in)

I'm a fan of PG Tips - beautiful flavour. In Peru and some other South American countries you can buy Coca 'tea' made from the leaves of the Coca plant - the leaves are of course used to make other commodities too! It doesn't taste much like tea and you need a lot of it to get high.
