Since there is a Coffee thread that has a pretty good tea discussion going on, I figured I would make a separate poll for my favorite morning beverage.

Also, what do you like in your tea?  Milk, cream, sugar, honey, lemon, etc.?

Personally, my favorite is probably Earl Grey, but I also really like other black teas, spiced chai, and chamomile (at night).  I like milk and sugar in black tea, but only honey in herbal teas.

I vote for Earl Grey. Also, I like mix Earl Grey with milk. (This smile titled coffee, but I think it fits Tea too)

I don't understand this beverage related topic!

I drink tea with milk and one sugar.
Does this mean i drink white tea, or black tea that contains milk and sugar?

This particular brand and flavor only:

I don't drink hot teas. I drink iced tea.

Oh, I forgot to clarify - I meant "white tea" in the sense of the specific kind of Chinese tea that is picked young, when it buds.

i usually get my tea here, although at one of the stores they have. i've been drinking a mixture of their Blueberry Bliss rooibos tea and Pineapple Kona Pop herbal tea recently and it's pretty good. whenever i go there though i try to try something new since i have the tea i mentioned at home. pretty fucking awesome stuff.

i also drink snapple raspberry white tea a lot at school.

Yeah, I'm a big fan of White Peony (bai mu tan?).  Also, Iron Goddess of Mercy isn't bad.  I make iced tea using Lady Grey or Darjeeling, it works well with limes.

Does Thai tea count?

...Actually, it looks like that's just "red tea".  Who knew?

I drink tea every day whole time. Mainly express black tea (lipton, tetley), but sometimes when I have more time I drink Earl Grey.
I don't use much sugar, only half of a flat teaspoon.

Coffee first and now tea ? eeeeeew.
Where are my polls about whisky and beer ?

[floatstarpx]

the only real tea is regular tea... all these different types?! crazy... I think the concept of "types" of tea is only really big outside of the UK...here, a tea is a tea...normally milk, no sugar. (unless you specifically ask for something different!)

I drink tea with milk and one sugar.

hahahah yes! when I've been away places I've had to ask for "black tea with milk", as "white tea" is something else..
ugh, I remember one particularly tragic time when a bar (the only one near enough to where I was staying) ran out of black tea and just gave me a green tea instead..but still added the milk (I would've preferred the green tea plain)... it was grim...but i still drank it because i was pretty desperate at this point.

Chai, mans. Chai all day long.

[pgil]

Chai made in skim milk is the best. I also like Yerba maté when I can get it (which is like never). I mostly drink plain green an black tea.

[Makai]

Me and my roommate drink about a liter of Black Tea with lemon a day. Plus all the Earl Gray I drink at work and the Yerba Mate during the weekends and that's a lot of caffeine consumed without touching any of those nasty roasted beans!
