Tried lemongrass ginger from Pukka advent today. I infused it a bit longer than I usually would, it tastes nice but if you don't like the licorice in your tea, might want to avoid. (It's not prominent, just gives a sweet aftertaste.)

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!!

Can't drink coffee except before noon, it gives me palpitations at the best of times. Tea for any time of say but I need my cuppa first thing in the morning. At night I mostly orefer decaf earl grey or herbal. Twining's decaf is quite good imo.

Ooh bloody love tea.

Ringtons gold label for during the day
PUKKA night time before bed
PUKKA peppermint and licorice when I fancy a change.

When I'm feeling low or poorly I love Tetley milky tea with extra sugar down my mam's house and I'm 41.

This is quite nice but you can't taste the nutmeg & vanilla too much. I have it with a small splash of dairy-free milk.

Arabica coffee is the highest it's been with further price increases expected. Price below is in USD.



My sister recently bought the Pukka love tea which is worth the hype. We're working our way through the box.

I just had a cup of Lapsang Souchong, made with a teabag. It’s very smoky.

I love lapsang souchong, I know the general advice is to mix it with a regular tea (I like it with earl grey) but I find the intensity of it really warming and cosy.

I’ve never heard the advice to mix it!
I had some in a hippy stylee whole food cafe a few years ago for nostalgic reasons. I then decided to buy some bags. Someone I used to babysit for always had the loose type available in their cupboard to drink. It used to remind me of the way French cigarettes like Gauloises and Disque Bleu smell.

Have you guys noticed how expensive Pukka teas are these days? At least £3 when not on offer, it's really not cheap for 20 bags

I like Clippers organic green tea and have seen this in Morrisons on promo for £3 for 80 bags. I think they do a couple of flavoured green teas which I haven't been able to find at a reasonable price anywhere though.

I also like the M&S Matcha green tea bags which are 10% matcha, brands such as Pukka and Yogi seem to use about 2% matcha in their matcha green teas and personally I prefer the higher matcha content.
