Hadrien 950 October 8, 2023 Share October 8, 2023 (edited) My favorite tea is Earl Grey, with a touch of sugar, a bit of milk and, for added flavor, just a tiny amount of vanilla. In colder weather, when I want to heat myself up, nothing beats a Chaï too. Edited October 8, 2023 by Hadrien 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Ice Princess Silky <3 13,904 October 8, 2023 Administrator Share October 8, 2023 I absolutely LOVE making my very own teas! Have you tried it? I have a garden with lavenders and berries and you can pick them to make some loose leaf teas of your own! But when I'm sick and not feeling the best, @Hugs SilkALot taught me how to mix mint and chamomile for a healing potion to soothe the belly when you're not able to eat much for whatever ales you! Teas, to me, are like nature's real life potions. So this is a fun thread! I also enjoy some lovely High Tea time. I was going to make a page called Victorian Tea -- even though it'll be nothing about tea -- hahaha but topics about stuffs I'd like us to discuss around a table of tea! Maybe this thread can go in there, anyway. We shall see. Either way, welcome to our little tea cottage! EARL GREY HAS SUCH A BEAUTIFUL FLORAL SCENT -- omg, one of my faves, I may go make myself a cup now <3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrator Sir Hugsalot 9,348 October 8, 2023 Administrator Share October 8, 2023 I have a few to list here! 1. Earl Grey, just like @Silky the little magus <3 You can never go wrong with it :3 2. Rooibos tea - a bit unusual one, but I've found it a good way to boost my diet and lower my appetite 3. Mint and chamomile - potion of my own making (that likely many did before, but we don't talk about that ) that works wonder during any belly-related discomforts. 4. All sorts of winter spiced teas due to their amazing warming effects :3 But overall tea is a wonderful drink, especially for cold, winter days <3 Makes one forget how cold it is outside, instead being soothed by tea's gentle warmth :3 1 As one person I cannot change the world, but I can change the world of one person.

Felis Amafeles 901 October 8, 2023 Share October 8, 2023 1. Yunnan Black Tea, those tea plants grown very close to Assam in India, but with a slightly different flavour from Assamese tea. 2. Old Tree Black Tea, that kind of tea is plucked from wild tea plants. Most of those trees grew 200 years ago and some are even 800 years old. Because they are wild tea trees, the flavour of the tea is different every year. This tea is very special and rare, and also very tasty! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is as strong, or more so ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yunnan black tea just like Assam tea with a stronger flavour. The Old Tree Black tea is very strong that only a small amount of tea leaves are needed to make a large cup of tea. You can feel the smell of the forest in the tea. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hadrien 950 October 11, 2023 Author Share October 11, 2023 Apple tea is great. We do it every year, at this time. With unlimited supply of apple, it's easy to try stuff like that 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Skylight Scintillate 2,031 October 11, 2023 Share October 11, 2023 For me, I'd say I really like a nice boba tea. Sometimes I'm in the mood for a milk tea, and other times, I prefer fruit tea. It seems like all the boba tea shops are inventing new flavors every week, but here are a few of my favorites: berry blend fruit tea, mango passion fruit tea, peach fruit tea, taro milk tea, and tiger milk tea. I know my tea preferences are significantly different from the other replies here, being cold and sweet rather than hot, but I like my teas being ridiculously sweet. However, I like the occasional hot tea, and for that, I like jasmine green tea. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually you sweeten it with honey, but we prefered maple syrup. With ginger, cinnamon and just a bit of lemon. It's really, really good. It warms you in your soul. 6 minutes ago, Skylight Scintillate said: For me, I'd say I really like a nice boba tea. Sometimes I'm in the mood for a milk tea, and other times, I prefer fruit tea. My go to boba is brown sugar milk tea, sooooo good especially during summer. But here, the temperatures are dropping so it's time for hot tea 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
