    Default Thea!

    Don't know how to make a poll, hmmm moderators?

    - yes, love it!
    - It is ok from time to time, kinda
    - foulest beverage ever
    - Thea is for fags, I only drink cappuchino
    - WTH is thea learn how to spell damnit

    I have been drinking quite a lot lately, and I have found a favourite in Jasmin from China. It actually relaxes, a very mild high if you want. Great before you go to sleep.

    do you mean tea?
    There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.

    I drink a double espresso coffee in the morning, with milk. I need the extra kick it offers, as I'm an old man and my engine takes stronger fuel to rev up.

    I drink Bigelow Constant Comment (English-style tea with Orange rind, my Dutch/Irish grandmother's favorite, which hence became one of mine), or Earl Gray in the afternoons, or sometimes Jasmine if I want something lighter, flowery and sweet.

    At night I drink a big mug of Japanese green tea, usually just some cheap Genmai (brown rice) cha. Great antioxidants, and it reminds me of my Japanese mum.

    Edit: I neglected to mention that on special occasions I'll pull out my stash of East-Indian-style Chai, loaded with interesting spices. I boil it in water, reduce to a simmer for a while to bring out all the subtle flavors, and then add some honey and about a third as much whole milk (the most common ratio is half and half, but I like a stronger chai flavor). I really enjoy Chai.

    I am tired and sick of war. Its glory is all moonshine. It is only those who have neither fired a shot nor heard the shrieks and groans of the wounded who cry aloud for blood, for vengeance, for desolation.

    A full cafettiere of extra strength black coffee - always handy, if not a pint of espresso. Of course, no sugar or milk - that's just silly.

    Tea on the other hand - Indian, take a dash of milk, or maybe a slice of lemon (depending on how I'm feeling). Chinese - well, as is of course.
    Don't have any aspirations - they're doomed to fail.

    I like a cup of tetleys, with a bit of milk in it. And i love how the Americans have half a billion different types of tea. My parents went to San Francisco, and when they ordered tea, they had to go through an entire page of paper looking for normal tea, which was under the label of 'breakfast tea'.

    Let us abstain from using comments, ironic though they may be, that impart an insulting, if not hateful tone.

    For my part, I drink tea by the gallon. All kinds. Thyme tea is great for the lungs when a cold or flu hits, though it tastes like a cup of hot dirt. You learn to like it. I prefer strong dark teas but still enjoy all the funky and fruity ones.

    Tea is the best drink to be addicted to, me thinks. The ordinary black tea is counted to be one of the 14 food/drinks that you should never forget taking completely..

    Well I don't mind whoever believes such crap news told us everyday but the only reason drink tea is I love it.. Pretty surprising, eh ?

    I'm sure there exists a woman somewhere who drinks the stuff, but I've never met her.

    Lapsang Souchong is to Lipton's as espresso is to Folger's. Orders of magnitude stronger, with a lingering smokey taste.

    It makes me think of end-of-the-day campfires after ascending one's favorite Himalyan mountain.

    For me, green tea all the way. Blueberry or raspberry tea would be a distant second (flavored with Splenda), and then Chai Latte would be a close third.
