I just like it during the day and it helps me unwind.

I like Irish breakfast in the morning. I've found a combination of blue lotus flower and rose hip tea keeps me calmer and helps me care less.

I'm waiting for some chamomile, lavender, and elderberry tea to calm down the little one and keep everyone from getting sick.

Matcha lattes sometimes for work when I need extra focus. Sencha from time to time. Turmeric and ginger for pain. Some Chinese jasmine white tea, I can't read just because it's nice.

I like to explore so I'm open to new ideas if anyone has recommendations.

I used to love Yogi tea and drank a lot of their kava. I moved onto the Pukka brand and it's my favorite.

We have this kava at home. I don't recommend it. It's not good. It's disgusting. Lol I will probably never drink it again. Ever. Tastes like mud and there is no fixing it.

Being the American that I am, it took me a long time to figure out Twinings was pretty good.

It's a common thing in America to fill the cup of water, throw the back on top of the water, put it in the microwave, and then wonder why anyone likes it.

Years and years ago, I had a friend from England visiting me who witnessed the chaos and finally taught me how to make a cup of tea properly.

I now own a kettle. Lool

I like Bell or Earl Grey tea but if I'm needing something more, I will drink green tea or or fruit tea. I'm more of a expresso drinker but I will drink tea when I want a change.

We have a milk frother at home and I'm from PNW, so I know good coffee. This state doesn't seem to know about blooming grounds and everything.

My mom asks me for a cup every time she comes over.

Someday when I have more time and energy, when I grow up maybe, I always thought it would be cool to run a little coffee stand.

Right now, I just have a little tea/coffee bar in the corner and it brings me joy.

Just like Typhoo , and I very rarely use a tea cup or tea pot, but must admit it does taste better.
So milk first or water first then milk , I do the latter but some friends put the milk in the cup with the teabag !!!!
Also I have found that milk taste different in different countries - prefer U.K. milk x

Perhaps not a favorite, but very interesting, and the perfect thing for a rainy day.

It has a smoky flavor caused by the curing process.

Lapsang souchong or Zhengshan xiaozhong is a black tea consisting of Camellia sinensis leaves that may be smoke-dried over a pinewood fire. This smoking is accomplished either as a cold smoke of the raw leaves as they are processed or as a hot smoke of previously processed leaves. Wiki source.

I don't know what to call this... If somebody does please reply...

1. Coffee filter
2. Cover the filter with loose leaf gunpowder green tea (from resealable bag)
3. Cover loose leaf tea with Folgiers Classic Roast Coffee
4. Add about 7 cups water to coffee maker

Really good!
