Default What's your favorite tea?

Hi all! I love a nice cup of tea with truvia in it to indulge my sweet tooth around 3pm. I think my favorite is Earl Grey, but my friend and I just started drinking this sweet chili tea with ginger from Yogi that is AMAZING! I just wanted to know what everyone else enjoys as a non-cal tea treat! Let me know, and have a happy, successful day!

I love the Tazo teas. I like the green tea with spearmint and the orange tea both as iced tea. My favorite for hot tea is "passion". They have really good flavor!!

I love Bigelow Lemon Lift tea! I drink it throughout the day, and it tastes so great on it's own that I don't have to add anything to it. I do want to start drinking green tea, but I'm not big on the taste. Any suggestions on brands?

Celestial Seasonings Bengal Spice tea is one of my favorite things on the planet. Seriously. It is totally herbal so no caffeine. It has a very spicy and sweet flavor, and I just adore it. I better go grab a cup.

My mom likes the Bigelow green tea blends. She used to always drink the green tea with mango. She likes a fruity green tea. I like the green tea mixed with a mint. It energizes me so I buy the Tazo ones. I think you just have to buy something, try it and find out if you like it. I don't add sweetener either. Lemon Lift sounds really good. I think I will look for that the next time I'm in the store! Thanks!!

I like the Stash brand... I picked up their pumpkin spice the other day (love when stores carry the holiday teas). I've also tried their chocolate hazelnut, caramel, coconut mango, mint chocolate and they all taste pretty good (for a tea, don't be expecting ice cream flavors from them).

Celestial Seasonings and Bigelow also have nice flavored teas...I agree with the Bengal Spice one being very good... you don't even need sweetener in that one, it has a natural sweetness to it.

Pumpkin Spice sounds PERFECT this time of year. I need to go pick some up!

Those sound really good!! I'll check them out. Maybe I'll like it better mixed with something, then ease my way into plain green tea

I don't drink hot tea. This southern girl doesn't know anything about tea unless it's iced!

Maybe I should? Some of these flavors you guys are talking about sound yummy.

I really like the Tazo Organic Chai Tea. It's especially nice this time of year (because of all the spices in it).

I'm drinking Trader Joe's Jasmine Green Tea right now... so good!

I also ordered some Japanese Sencha tea (also a green tea) loose leaves in bulk... a bit cheaper this way.

Next time I want to order some dragon pearl tea (also green tea... I'm on a roll here). If you ever get the chance to try it, it's very good!

I have a lavender oolong that I love. I also love Good Earth tea, but I can't drink it right now (has herbs I can't have while nursing.)

I've been drinking a lot of decaf iced tea lately, but it's cooling off so...I'm going to have to track down the Pumpkin Spice tea. That sounds delish.

People's Republic of Tea has amazing flavors choices. I love their ginger peach. They also have choices of loose or bagged teas. There's not many things better than brewing your own loose tea. Tea bags tend to use the lowest qualities of tea, mostly tea dust and tiny pieces of leaves. Loose tea gives you full leaves and pieces of whatever is flavoring the tea. It's easy to brew, especially with the single serve brewers and tea presses out there now.

I love all sorts of chai or english breakfast as a coffee replacement with a little sweetener and low fat half and half. A fruit flavored green tea (like mandarin green) for something lighter. I love Celestial seasonings sleepytime tea at night, or their vanilla chamomile.

People's Republic is my go to now, and I plan to try more of theirs.
