What's your favorite hot tea?

Countless ones to choose from at the supermarket, from black teas to green teas, decaf herb teas to regular caffeinated ones.

I'm partial to English Breakfast, using 2-3 teabags per very large cup to brew a tea with some body.

Earl Grey, loose leaf

Loose leaf tea tastes a lot better than bagged tea. I have a hard time drinking bagged now.

I'm not a big fan of Earl Grey. I tried it from the store and didn't like it that much. If I was away from my kettle, I'd have to get it from Starbucks because that was the only black tea they offered.

this is the one I have in my cabinet right now (world market I think).

I might be changing my tea drinking to something else though. the other night I had Lebanese coffee at Albasha and that stuff was great. The manager explained the process to me and while it seems very involved it should be worth it.

I guess I don't consider mate "tea"

But I drink this stuff from time to time, I have the little decorative gourd and bombilla and the whole works. I got two different brands of fresh mate leaves from online.

Good stuff because the part of mate that gives you a boost doesn't have the side effects of caffeine. National drink of Argentina.

Same here.

Old Spice Traders has a Bombay Chai that is probably my fav right now. Add a little milk and sugar.

Earl Grey. Straight up. No milk, lemon, sugar or other interference. And I am neither old man nor coffee drinker. Love it. Would wear it as perfume if that wasn't ever so slightly insane.
