J3FF3R00 Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 coffee gives me acid reflux and it makes my heart beat really fast. I drink tea now. I think you have many more options with flavors of tea that aren't all chemicals and artificial flavors. I love me some earl grey, chamomile and green jasmine. Those are my jams.

J3FF3R00 Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Also, I'm not British, but can tell you I like this brand... also I wish I could describe to you how good this tea is... It is Mariage Frères, Marco Polo Tea. It is almost sweet and fruity with a vanilla-ish taste. That description doesn't do it much justice. If you are ever in a fancy grocery store, pick this shit up. It also makes a really nice gift because whoever gets it will love you for it.

springymajig Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 1) It's versitile. Not only are there a bajillion kinds, but you can have it warm or cold, with milk or without... if you want it sweet you can have it with sugar or honey... or for something more refreshing a bit of lemon... there are SO MANY things you can do with tea, and I haven't even gotten into blending my own or anything weird like that. 2) It's not coffee.

Guest Iain C Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 (edited) I switch brands of tea frequently these days after several years (a lifetime, really) of complacently drinking Tetley. If you're serious, PM me. I take tea seriously. I'll give you some insight into why tea is personally important to me, why I think it's culturally important (although this is largely UK-specific) and, as I feel might be most practically useful to you, what motivates me to try a new brand (with a focus on advertising/marketing and packaging).

Guest Franklin Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Tea is the great equalizer; enjoyed by royalty and paupers, by generals and by privates, by the old world and the new one. then write something about every event in history, planned and unplanned, happened with a cup of tea nearby. i'd love to work on this more but ive got tons of shit to do!
