I hope I have not offended this nation of tea drinkers but as they say , "each to his own." |

I love to have a mug of tea first thing in the morning with a little sugar and milk. I prefer Twinings English Breakfast tea then. Throughout the day I might have one more cup and it is usually Twinings Green Tea with Chamomile. I also like Twinings Earl Grey. I love to make a proper tea in a pot with little treats or sandwiches and close friends to enjoy it with. Using my good china too. I used to belong to a group called the "Daughters of The British Empire." We had tea at all of our meetings and sometimes put on a tea as a fundraiser. I can't wait to join the group again after I move and get settled. And in the summertime I love to have Iced Tea with sugar and lemon on ice. It is so refreshing on a hot day. Couldn't you just picture my three sweet cats sitting at a little table in their Sunday best enjoying a cup of tea and a few treats??? |

A couple of mugs at lunchtime and about 3 mugs around 5 in the evening. I also drink several cups of coffee during the day too. This is a hot, dry (well except for the past week when we have had just about non-stop rain, lol) country and we need plenty of fluids. Don't trust the tap water even with a filter on it and object to buying bottled water. Vince if you don't drink tea what do you drink? Beth - I've never heard of Long Island tea - do tell me more!! lol

Barbara Shoemaker Posts: 1764 Joined: 4th Jan 2008 Location: USA | quotePosted at 15:09 on 10th January 2011 My tea of choice on a daily basis is Bigelow's English Teatime, which I have at home and is also provided at my office. I prefer it with a splash of milk and Splenda. I also like it sometimes blended with a Celestial Seasonings Cinnamon Apple Spice herbal teabag with honey and lemon. I generally use a mug at home in the morning, but on weekends if I have time to do a proper tea in a pot, then I use a cup and saucer. I also have a special English bone china mug with a lovely thatched cottage scene on it which I use for drinking tea at work. I drink coffee (French Roast or Sumatra) at work in the mornings and on weekend mornings, also with milk and Splenda. |
