RainbowxWolf66 67 March 19, 2014 Share March 19, 2014 Man i love tea! Mostly sweet tea though. I haven't really tried many different tea flavors. I am picky when it comes to flavors so yeah XD. But sweet tea is my cup of tea Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LittleRawr 679 March 19, 2014 Share March 19, 2014 I'm supposed to work in just under four hours but I haven't been able to sleep and I feel like death. Normally I'd just take a tranquilizer and sleep it off, but that's a guaranteed ten hours or downtime, maybe twelve, and I should call into work in a few hours. Because I'm pretty sure I ain't goin. I hope that you feel better soon, at least. I might just make a mate or a rooibus. Even I'm not such a tea snob that I refuse to own these. They're just my red headed stepchildren, is all. I got a peppermint mate that might clear out my head a little. Peppermint is pretty good, it'll probably help. Good luck c: PS: this is the tea i have been drinking I think that I've seen that tea type around. I'll have to try it out sometime. Man i love tea! Mostly sweet tea though. I haven't really tried many different tea flavors. I am picky when it comes to flavors so yeah XD. But sweet tea is my cup of tea If my tea's not sweet I usually add sugar. Often a lot of it Signature by Azura Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karma Lightwing 245 March 19, 2014 Share March 19, 2014 (edited) I think that I've seen that tea type around. I'll have to try it out sometime. Well they are in several tastes I really like the cranberry one. Thou i betcha that selfbreewed with loose leaves are better than this. If my tea's not sweet I usually add sugar. Often a lot of it I usally consider using sugar in the tea as ruining it, but a little is okay sometimes depending on the tea Stallion i love tea! Mostly sweet tea though. I haven't really tried many different tea flavors. I am picky when it comes to flavors so yeah XD. But sweet tea is my cup of tea So am I. Some teas i cant drink at all actually. Which is why im currently looking for something to brew tea with Edited March 19, 2014 by Karmali Fluffheart Silly muffins, of course i have to eat you.

Eloquence 2,076 March 19, 2014 Share March 19, 2014 I've noticed some people talking about sweet tea, so I have to ask. Does anyone here drink southern sweet tea? You know, as in that tea you make by brewing it, letting it cool, and then adding sugar until you've literally hit the saturation point where you can't possibly dissolve any more sugar into the tea? Personally it's not my taste, but I know people who do like it, and it seems like everyone who likes it absolutely swears by it My Equestrian Empire Characters Fluttershy - Eloquence - Chamomile - Ginseng - Lovestruck Ask Me Questions!

Virgil 685 March 19, 2014 Author Share March 19, 2014 I realize I'm a bit late to comment on this but..... I actually have a project on the backburner to make a steampunk tea kit out of an old case. The inside would have a false back hiding the wiring for a motor driving an old mechanical water meter register head (working as a timer) and some other decorative lights and stuff. Then I'd have small, old colored glass bottles with a selection of teas inside and a decanter for water, a burner (or a tipping teapot/samovar). I actually have scoured the flea markets for most of the stuff already, and just need to do the wood work for the insets, embellish the case, and design the internal workings. So, pretty much the entire construction really. That sounds So Awesome ! When you finish, if you don't mind, please share some pics. I have a bit of a fondness for Victorian era art styles to a certain degree, so I'd be rather interested to see how it turns out. I've noticed some people talking about sweet tea, so I have to ask.

Personally it's not my taste, but I know people who do like it, and it seems like everyone who likes it absolutely swears by it I used to drink it back when I really just drank ice tea. I live in Dallas, Texas and I come from a family where the description you gave would basically be the actual summation of it's preparation. Since I no longer drink ice tea, I quite rarely drink tea with sweetener in it, and if I do it's typically honey. An interesting incident happened once when I was at a Japanese restaurant with my brother. We both ordered some hot Jasmine tea, I drank it straight, my brother asked for sugar. And the waitress ,who was Japanese and likely born there given here strong accent; was rather shocked by the idea of putting sugar in tea, and in any kind by her reaction. 1 I know there's a place you walkedWhere love falls from the treesMy heart is like a broken cupI only feel right on my knees.I spit out like a sewer holeYet still receive your kissHow can I measure up to anyone nowAfter such a love as this?

Duster Dawnhorse 248 March 19, 2014 Share March 19, 2014 Whoo! A tea thread! My favorites are flavored black teas, the sweeter the better. I got an almond coconut vanilla black tea from some random hippies at a flea market and it was soooo good. Never found those hippies to buy more. Just placed an order from Lupicia for a pineapple vanilla coconut oolong and a sweet Japanese strawberry black tea. If you have not bought from Lupicia do it. I've been a customer for about three years and their stuff is amazing. And if you buy 30 bucks or more online you get a newsletter with a free sample every month. 3 Pacific Ponycon 17 || BABSCon 17 || Anime Expo 17 Panelist/Vendor || Panelist/Vendor/Media || Attendee Tumblr || DeviantART || Twitter Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

easymac 106 March 19, 2014 Share March 19, 2014 does anyone have any good tea diffusers, because Tevana tea is all loose leaf ~_~ -end If you are reading this you clearly have sometime on your hands, or you just like to read.

I guess i need to make room for drinking more tea I've never actually had Twinings tea bags, but as far as tea bags go, they seem to be pretty popular.

Fire_Fly 499 March 20, 2014 Share March 20, 2014 I'm a little bit of a newcomer when it comes to tea, so I haven't tried very many, but I love the few I've tried recently. Darjeeling is one of my favorites, and I've had it brewed as both a black and a green tea. There's a shop not far from where I live that sells nothing but tea, and I've been buying a few based on the suggestions of the people working there. I've got an idea! No..... No, wait; it's just a concussion.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

♞RedLotus♞ 360 March 23, 2014 Share March 23, 2014 (edited) Tea lovers beware! I just bought this tea at the store called "apple cinnamon spice". At first I thought it was going to be sweet and taste like apple juice but boy was I wrong. Anyways, I was so eager to try it, so I brewed some and gave it a try. If I were to dip cinnamon sticks in water I'd pretty much get the same results. Its basically pure cinnamon. The flavor dominates every other herb in the tea its like practically drinking cinnamon juice (If that even exists) Anyways, the tea is way too strong and bulky... plain nasty in my opinion. I'm sorry if I offended anyone out there that may be a fan of this tea. Either way, does anyone have any tasty recommendations?
