Life wouldn't be complete without Green Tea. I drink it alot espcailly when studying, it also releases some chemical in your brain which is good for you.
i love tea, its so good. Green tea is always good pretty much whatever the brand and i like orange spice tea but not when its a cheap brand, its too sweetened.
i was jsut downstairs drinking my nightly tea and was gonna make a thread called tea,coffe, HO CHO (the way cool ppl say hot chocolate remember that) but than i got tied up in american idle (i tyhink thats safe to say in here we r all tea lovers)
a couple fo days ago my friend and i got in an argument what regular tea was called. every morning he would sip my tea and say " mmmm. earl grey" i would tell him its not and he wouldn't believe me. it was just plain regular tea. and he didn't believe me that there was such a thign as plain regular tea. is it called black tea?
k dude first off i obviosly dont know what exact kind of tea you drink, but it sounds like your friend knows what he is talking about, or at least thinks he does, so im going to say trust him.
secondly: no, there is no such thing as "plain regular tea".there are two basic types of tea, green and black. green tea is made from the young and relitivly fresh (compaired to black tea) leaves of the east asian tea tree. black tea is a broad term for all tea that is made from the leaves of the tea trees of india. the thing about tea is that just like the trees it comes from there are many sub-species, to complicate matters different teas are picked at diferent stages of growth and just to make it a bit more technical teas are often mixed with other teas to create 'blends', much like coffee or wiskey. 'earl grey' is one of the most popular of these, so is 'orange pekoe' chances are you are drinking one or the other.
and thirdly as can be seen from that rant: i love tea.
heres a mad tip from a seasoned cafine pro. sometimes (usualy before partys) i make coffee-tea it is amzing you get the awesome cafine hit and bold flavour of coffe mixed the subtly high and intricate palet of tea. how, put tea(bags)in coffee pot brew coffee as usual, enjoy.
i have green tea every day. see if you can find a place that sells RISHI tea. it's an artisan tea company, and everything they have is top quality and amazing. always go lose leaf if you can
yeah i brought like 3 packs from argentina and you can find it here in organic stores. Definitely works tons better than redbull and also has virtues. Drinking half a liter will keep you up at night and it helps your thinking too. The straw is most of the time silver or metal and you drink it out of an emptied out and dried fruit shell, but that's just the traditional way, you can use anything. tastes quite bitter, put some sugar in it, but it's likely you'll find it fairly disgusting. More people drink this than coffee in Argentina, so it definitely is good.
i love tea, different types can apply in different situations, like sleepytime tea before bed, chai in the morning, green tea anytime, chilled mint tea in the summer... i could go on and on.
earl grey is a blend of black tea ( i think it has some orangelike flavoring). black te is an oxidised tea leaf, and it is the same as green tea but with more oxidation. if your tea is in a bag and the box doesn't say earl grey, then it's probably just a black tea blend.
I guess its pretty Trendy, but I like Starbucks. I just got a Chai Tea Latte. My favorite. If I dont get a Chai Tea Latte, I will get a Triple Tall Americano. Its awsome. It's 3 shots of espresso filtered into water. Its awsome. One night, I didn't feel like drinking or blazing so I had 6 shots of espresso, it was on.
Id say that the antioxidant teas are super good, and so are the mintyy ones. O and all that Japanese tea is good to because it makes you feel like a Samurai
