Tea Time

[AlwaysSummer]

Swap between Clipper Dandelion tea and camomile in the evenings to balance my overconsumption of coffee the rest of the time.

I’m in London. I get mine from Ocado since the local Irish shop near here closed down.

can we send you some Tayto and a box of Kimberley and Mikado for the Christmas
supervalu sausages?

Pukka three liqorice tea

Barry's red label or Bewleys breakfast tea for me! I only drink tea in the evening! Anyone else do this!!

 

[svdwoodsen]

Fortnum & Mason and Twinings are always good options that you can't go wrong with!

I also love Kusmi tea.

 

[Peeky_Mink]

Genmaicha/popcorn tea is my most favourite tea.
I'm also a big fan of white tea.
Peppermint (loose leaf) and rooibos tea are also lovely.

Haven't dropped by in a while but hello again tea thread Anyone else enjoying the pukka tea advent? Trying the Blackcurrant Beauty today, I'm sorry so see that it's weaker than I expected..

Thanks for reviewing this. Haven’t tried any Pukka tea lately. I’ve been drinking Lapsang Souchong.

Does anyone have a good peppermint tea recommendation?

I usually have Twinings for everyday and Teapigs as a treat, however neither are near as good as fresh leaves.

Aldi do two really good versions of peppermint tea, one contains peppermint and spearmint and is very good value compared to other shops, they also do a teabag version with the string attachment which is just pure peppermint, both are really lovely.

I like Clippers teas where do you buy these as I don't really find Clippers in many stores?

 

[svdwoodsen]

I am a Canadian and have limited access to British teas so I have to ask...is the Yorkshire Biscuit Tea as good as it sounds?? Do folks in the UK actually drink Yorkshire tea? Or is that an insult to all British teas?

I have so many questions. Thank you for this thread.

I’m in Canada as well and David’s Tea is good!

Has anyone tried Bird and Blend teas? I just got Terry's Tea, chocolate digestives, birthday cake and enchanted Narnia. All very good! What other flavours should I try?

 

[Hello Kitty]

Fortnum & Mason
Cartwright & Butler
Twinings and M&S are also good too.

I love English Breakfast, Assam and Earl Grey.

They have a website Some independent wholefoods stores and posh farm shops will stock them too. Sometimes you can randomly find them in TK Maxx. It's annoying as Tesco and Sainsbury's used to both offer decent selection.

Yorkshire tea gold
or Assam (generic is fine)

I went onto decaf for a while but for some reason it now all tastes slightly chemically to me. I reckon I drink too much tea and am looking to reduce my brew intake.

Have you tried rooibos? It takes a little getting used to but it's naturally caffeine free so you can have in the evening and even children can drink it

 

[lemonlime]

I cannot deal with 2020 anymore. It’s like a year of April fools days.

WHY oh my god, leave solid foods out of tea you weirdos

I drink twinings decaffeinated earl grey. Earl grey is my favorite, in a B&B 2 weeks ago they only had regular earl grey and it reinforced why I drink decaffeinated tea - caffeine makes me pee loads!!

I love the decaf one for evenings! I like having a cup of tea at night/before bed, the taste doesn't lack anything either.

 

[lemonlime]

Oh this is my thread!!!!!

in a day I drink,
liquorice and cinnamon,
spiced ginger,
Nettle,
black or sweet chai,
And cinnamon.

Best brands are Yogi, pukka were up there but they’re a bit chav lately, the bags break really easily and I really don’t like their cinnamon
for ginger and nettle I use twinnings
Cheaper and better ingredients.

I’m never off the toilet but you could set you clock by me

Tell me your spiced ginger secrets please Is that Twinings as well? Never tried anything apart from black teas from Twinings - except when I bought a bauble thingy full of Christmas tea. It was delicious but I don't know if it's available year round.

 

[martaS]

I've never seen the superblends one, sounds great! And I love the look of ginger chai, would you say it's on the spicy side? I enjoy quite a strong ginger flavour. Higher Living ginger tea used to be burn-your-nose kind of spicy but I'm sorry to see that they've made it slightly more mellow.

It's not burn your nose spicy but ginger is prominent. I think it's like 75% black tea and 25% ginger so quite strong on the ginger. I suppose you can always add a couple of slices of fresh ginger to crank it up?

 

[coconochanel]

I like Tetley.

 

[ksb12345]

It kind of tastes like if you drop a sweet biscuit in your tea and swirl it around to be honest, I don’t like sugar in my tea though so other people might think it’s lovely

I can't help it I am so intrigued!

 

[Drea1984]

Love Kimberly biscuits! Can’t find them anywhere now sadly

 

[Liberty]

No, I drink it all day long! In the morning, I need tea first, as it’s so thirst quenching. But never coffee first.
Will drink coffee later on though.

I have about 3 coffees through out the day and always tea when the day is done!
I think the coffees keep me awake!!
