justLisa Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I mean REAL tea that you actually drink. I've gone back to the boxed/bag kind, but it is getting expensive and flavor lacking. I would rather go back to loose than the $5 a box higher end stuff. What are some great teas? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juniper Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 This is my all time favorite!!! It is a spicy sweet tea brewed on its own. No need for added sugar. http://www.marketspice.com/store/products/marketspice-cinnamon-orange-tea-16oz-package I have never found anything that comes close to it!

Night Elf Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 My dd14's current favorite tea is Blackberry Sage from The Republic of Tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Miss Peregrine Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I like the matcha style green tea from Costco. $14 for 100 bags. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can you believe this is made in my home town and I'm so un tea educated LOL. I'll have to hunt this down. I'm sure I can find it local. I juts hate buying a big package of something I have never tried. I do love a good spicy chai so I'll bet I would like this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amy in NH Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 My favorite is Lipton Orange and Spice flavored Black Tea which apparently has just been discontinued by Lipton. :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Juniper Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 My favorite is Lipton Orange and Spice flavored Black Tea which apparently has just been discontinued by Lipton. :( Check out the Market spice I linked above. It is even better!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just go the site and search Signature Tea, or you could just go to the Pike Place Market. ;) PS, my hometown too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

purplemama Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I love http://www.teavana.com . They have a wide selection of loose teas and I can usually use each teaspoon to make several cups of tea. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unfrumpable. Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I love www.teavana.com . They have a wide selection of loose teas and I can usually use each teaspoon to make several cups of tea. Teavana and Adagio are my favorites! They both have great selections. At Adagio you can purchase different customer blends, the selection is extensive! I've never had bad tea from either place. That said, we also use Lipton's cold brew tea, which tastes like regular tea. It's nice to not have to heat anything up to make it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momto2Cs Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 This is my all time favorite!!! It is a spicy sweet tea brewed on its own. No need for added sugar. http://www.marketspice.com/store/products/marketspice-cinnamon-orange-tea-16oz-package I have never found anything that comes close to it! That looks so good! Reminds me of Good Earth Original Spice Blend, which is one of my all-time favorites. Other absolute favorites: From Stash, I like Liquorice Spice and Meyer Lemon. With a touch of stevia, the Lemon one tastes like amazing lemonade! From Celestial Seasonings, I like Sleepytime (at bed time of course), Tangerine Orange Zinger, and Red Zinger, as well as a bunch of other flavors.

KungFuPanda Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I love all types of tea, and even have the zojirushi water boiler to support my habit, but MOST days I'm content with Trader Joe's Irish Breakfast tea with sugar and a splash of milk. It costs about 1/3 as much as Twinings and is just as good. TJs has a decent tea selection that won't break the bank. My son is addicts to their chai latte and I try to also keep the white tea pomegranate on hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SunnyDays Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 My favorite is Lipton Orange and Spice flavored Black Tea which apparently has just been discontinued by Lipton. :( Ack!! WHAT?!? I knew I didn't see it in Target anymore but I didn't know it was totally gone. :( Maybe I'll have to try Juniper's suggestion. I don't like sweet tea at all, so never add sugar, but I do love a good orange and spice blend!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
REv1053 Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Other absolute favorites: From Stash, I like Liquorice Spice and Meyer Lemon. With a touch of stevia, the Lemon one tastes like amazing lemonade! I absolutely LOVE the licorice spice. Mmmmm Though DH says it tastes like Jägermeister. But then there is more for me.... I'll have to try the Meyer Lemon. Thanks!

DawnM Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Be careful about storage. I put this (loose leaf) in a tupperware and it ate through the lid! It is good though. I lived in Seattle for 4 years and every time I visit now I get a huge bag of it. This is my all time favorite!!! It is a spicy sweet tea brewed on its own. No need for added sugar. http://www.marketspice.com/store/products/marketspice-cinnamon-orange-tea-16oz-package I have never found anything that comes close to it!

DawnM Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 Mostly I drink black tea from Kenya. It is what I grew up with and what I love the most. Strong Kenyan tea with hot milk and some sugar. I do like Indian Chai too though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mergath Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I'm a big fan of lapsang souchong tea. People either seem to love it or hate it. I just get the Twinings brand at the grocery store. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KrissiK Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I really love Constant Comment. Lately, in the evenings when I'm doing my devotions I'll be drinking Sleepytime. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TeachingTwins Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I really like Lady Londonderry from English Tea Store. Their Monk's Blend is also very good. http://www.englishteastore.com/afternoontea.html Last summer they offered free shipping for a $25 miniumum purchase, which really brings the cost/oz down to a reasonable cost.

6packofun Posted June 9, 2012 Share Posted June 9, 2012 I discovered Mighty Leaf teas after a recommendation here! I love the Green Tea Tropical and make it as iced tea all the time. SO refreshing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
