Your favourite tea

**moomies** · June 12th, 2006, 10:46 PM

I've recently found that green tea is a little rough on my tummy so I'm gonna go easy on that.

My absolute favourite is Earl Grey, I love that bergamont fragrance.

My 2nd fave, I'd say Jasmine tea, I guess I like any tea that's fragrant.

And then other ones I usually like are all sorts of fruit blends, I've just got a box of blue berry tea so I'm going to try it today.

What's your fave?

I LOVE the passion tea from Starbucks (made by Tazo). It is mainly rose hips and hibiscus, I think, so it has a very distinctive flavor. I love it though.

I really like the Ruby Fruit from Expresso Royale.

I would have to say green tea for me all the way!

I got the habit of drinking a cup of vanilla flavoured green tea every day after lunch because I think it's healthy and good for me

Green tea alone for me is just yuck! but the vanilla flavour covers the bitter taste

I think you'd prolly like green tea ice cream then. Can you get something like that over there in Italy MaryJane?
(green tea gelato is readily available here in Vancouver).
If not you could make your own by making very strong green tea and mixing it in with vanilla ice cream or pulverize the tea leaves (like matcha http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matcha ) and blend it into ice cream.

You know what, I think I saw green tea ice cream somewhere?

But I don't eat ice cream often, and when I do I don't even consider any flavours other than chocolate

I am in agreement with Moomies and enctpc.

I drink green tea every morning with a little milk and equal.
I've never liked coffee much, I didn't know Starbucks had tea? hmm must try it.

Starbucks carries a brand called Tazo, I think you can also get them at some grocery stores. You can order a cup of that though and there are some yummy flavors and it's cheaper than the coffee. I believe that there are 2 green teas they serve. There is China Green Tips which is a traditional green tea, and then there is Zen which also has lemongrass, spearmint, and lemon and is really good.

Chamomile tea I love it when I can't sleep.

Stash Teas, especially the Chai Spice Tea. It has Cinnamon and nutmeg - it's just fabulous. And I don't remember who said it - was it you, Moomies? - but Earl Grey is yummy too

ETA - Yep, it was you Mooms :-)
