I'm trying to expand my collection.
Right now I love peppermint and apple cinnamon, but I think it's just because it's almost the holidays

I love tea, I'm drinking tea right now. I like spearmint, peppermint, blueberry, apple lemon pomegranate. I try to stick to mostly green, red, or herbal
teas.

my absolute favorite is oolong, but i really do just love tea. i like blueberry, a really good green, TAZO JOY TEA (which you can only get at starbucks or
certain places online during the holidays), english breakfast, celestial seasonings nutcracker sweet, harney and sons holiday tea (you can get it at barnes and
noble cafes). i'm (still) getting over bronchitis and lately i've been into mint tea...i prefer tazo refresh or stash mint medley, which is just cut up
spearmint and peppermint in bags, no added lemon oil or rose hips or anything that some of the other companies like to put in their teas.
oh and also, harney and sons makes a green tea with coconut and lemongrass (i think) that is delightful! |

Wow, ChasevidWrightley, all those teas sound so sophisticated
The blueberry sounds interesting. Anyone ever had orange? It's sitting in my cupboard but I'm scared to try it. |

It's just a variety of herbal teas and it just says "Orange" on the outside
The lemon was good, but strong... so I have a feeling the orange
is the same way.
And it's okay. I'm obsessed with it too

ah, okay. honestly, with orange i'd try it iced. put some honey or sugar in it (if you like it sweet) when it's still hot and then pour it over ice.
now, if you'll excuse me, i've got a cup of tea to make.

I'm sort of in love with Teavanna right now. Do I know the flavors they gave me to sample? No, but they were all amazing.
I did a search for Teavanna on Yahoo! Answers and a lot of people who tried to make it at home said it was much more watery / less flavorful than what they had at the store. There are apparently a lot of different ways to brew it, and I think the sugar they use contributes to the flavor. |

My bf and I go to Teavana every Sunday. I've never had that problem with their tea, maybe they aren't using enough tea?

Did you have to buy something special to brew it? A sales associate wanted to sell me a special brewer and four samplers of tea for $50. Each container of tea
made 20 cups.
Did you buy their sugar too? I usually just drink my tea without milk, sugar, etc. I love their teas, though - if I can make them at home, it'd be wonderful. |

No, you don't have to buy anything special but I'm not surprised they tried to sell you their special brewer. I don't buy their sugar either, I buy
either agave syrup or Stevia. I think their sugar is good but it's overpriced.

Thanks - I'll go back and pick up some of their tea. The sales associate made it seem like you MUST HAVE their brewer for it to work.
What's your favorite flavor? |
