    I don't like tea o.o then again I've only tried the normal stuff, and a berry one

    • Link

      HMM are you a coffee drinker then? also, even normal stuff is like, varied depending!

      • Link

        No I don't like coffee either haha, and I think it was PG tips tea that I tried

  • Link

    aahhh orange tea is delicious. I had it once when I was sick. It made me feel so much better (both in spirits and illness wise).

    • Link

      i haven't had it much, only once when i was taste testing it in the bistro >w> it was p good! i think there's just something about teas that really make you feel better

  • Link

    Ahh I'm not the actual tea person but my friend is a darn near expert >8u; and She often goes to teavana I think it's called? They're a bit up in price but DANG IF THEY DON"T HAVE GOOD TEA UGHh and they have bunches of different flavors and stuff. I love flavorful tea ;u;

    • Link

      OOH i was looking at their site and cringing at the prices- out of my league rn, but i want to get something from them sometime 6w6

  • Link

    I wish I could get into tea, I really do ): My sister is a big tea drinker and loves trying new ones, but ehh I just can't seem to like the taste. But I keep trying it just in case I find one I do like haha. I'm totes a coffee drinker though xx

    • Link

      I DON'T really know many people that like both, tea vs coffee seems like you either like them, or you hate them... it's cool you give it a try despite not being into it tho! there are some teas that i'm like eeeh at, if it's really bland stuff. though i put sugar and milk so it sweetens it up a lot for me, and sometimes, that result isn't the best for stronger teas...

  • Link

    waahh you know i love my leaf water UEHUEUHEUE i haven't really got a chance to try out a lot of brands or anything though, chai teas are my favorite caffeinated choice (I think the stash makes a pretty good blend u7u) and then i do really like camomiles for before bed and stuff pfpft, I've been making a lot of milk teas recently and those are also good, i should invest in some tapioca pearls for them euheueue
    ALSO have you ever had thai iced tea bby?? ; v ;

    • Link

      OUR LEAF WATER OBSESSION LMAO omg i can't wait to try some thai tea with you tho MMM WE GONNA TEST ALL THE TEAS WHEN WE'RE TOGETHER<33333

  • Link

    I love macha and earl gray!!! They're my favorites and I'm kind of a tea fanatic. Honestly though I'm also the type who will just drink two types for years and years...;

    • Link

      YEAH BASICALLY i just drink black orange pekoe. all day. erryday. i was stuck on my tazo brand until i ran out tho oops

      • Link

        Is it avaliable in the store at least? Or is it that pesky kind you have to buy online? OH IM ALSO ADDICTED TO CHAI TEA. The kind premade and put in a. Carton. You add half milk. Most people heat it but I adore it cold

        • Link

          its a pesky brand you'd probs have to find online, luckily black orange pekoe is a default brand sold in stores >w>

          • Link

            I'll have to look for it! Maybe it'll be my next go to!

  • Link

    I love Green Tea! Jasmine, Herbal teas that have Apple, Peach, and Raspberry in it! <3
    I wake up to Earl Grey or English Breakfast. I haven't had Black Orange Pekoe >//< I have one Chai tea 0v0;

    • Link

      i don't really drink green tea v much, but i've always wanted to give jasmine a try mmm~
      english breakfast sounds real nice! earl grey too- i don't think i've had either uvu i usually go for flavored teas

      • Link

        My Mom loves Earl Grey and its Awesome with sugar! Its worth a try X3 Green Tea is good with Chinese Food. I need my Caffeate(sp?)!! 0v0;;

  • Link

    My favorite is an oolong or sencha tea, its my staple but I also like a good chai tea that I got from adagio. I put milk in that. I also have a peppermint whitechocolate tea that is so perfect.

    • Link

      i haven't had either of those! i do want to try chai teas when i'm done with the samplers i currently bought tho<3

      • Link

        I think chai teas are a really nice bed time or morning tea. The one I have from adagio is one of the fandom teas. Mine is called mycroft lol.

  • Link

    I just have Lipton Yellow label Tea ALL DA TIEM Q v Q That and I drink my tea with milk, It's always delicious!

    • Link

      my mom raised me on lipton teas LOL now i just... orange pekoe 5 ever.. i love tea w/ milk, i can't NOT have milk in my tea- it's way too LEAF WATERY for me to down 8(

      • Link

        Over here when you buy tea they give you milk automatically-- and I got gay for it like that. LOL And I kinda hated tea before that and then when I tasted it that I was like THIS IS HOW TEA IS SUPPOSED TO BE.

  • Link

    I love getting tea from there. My favorites I've gotten so far are Oriental spice, Peach oolong, Earl Grey Bravo.
    I like lots of different teas and I drink a cup every morning to wake up. I love chai, thai, blacks, oolongs, greens. Ah tea. <3

    • Link

      black tea is def my preferred choice! every tea i've had that wasn't flavored had some black tea in it >w> i'm not sure why but! i do wanna give other teas a chance, defs chai when i run out of these samplers mmm~~~

      • Link

        I would definitely try the earl grey they have, it is SO good.

  • Link

    My favs are Matcha Green Tea and Chrysanthemum tea :3

    • Link

      my friend sam really likes matcha, even has a sona named after it- but chrysanthemum tEA?? that sounds
      strange
      and i want it omg.. what's it taste like?

      • Link

        I have a Matcha tea character too XD
        As for Chrysanthemum tea, The mix I have has some sorta rose buds and something else [too comfortable to move into the kitchen right now and look at the packages, but I can go look later if you like XD].
        When brewed, the tea is very aromatic and smells flowery :3 It's a tea that is supposed help calm you down/de-stress and help with putting you to sleep~ I don't really put anything in it like sugar with matcha tea, and just drink it plain.
        Got it at a tea shop in San Francisco for my mom, but she doesn't like the aroma so I drink it instead every now and then x3

  • Link

    I've never actually tried anything from Adiago Teas, but it looks like I'm gonna have to, now.
    I'm a big fan of ivory matcha, gunpowder green, kukicha and genmaicha, myself. <3

  • Link

    I'm not much of a tea or a coffee person actually. (give me a nice hot chocolate over either of those any day)

    I've tried pomegranate green tea before and that was okay, and I've tried ear grey (ick...) but I haven't really found any tea that I've liked yet. (the descriptions on adiagoteas always sound amazing though)

  • Link

    Ooh, hell yeah adagio teas! If you're looking for more floral tea, I cannot recommend their Rooibos Cinnamon Apple enough! It has a nice full baked apple flavor. Another one to check out is Peach Tranquility by Teavana. Teavana tends to be a bit more pricey than Adagio, but they're definitely the place to go for more herbal teas.

  • Link

    I am incredibly partial to peach tea myself, though I would often just drink Green Tea.

  • Link

    I have not ordered any teas online but I got a new tea recently that I adore. It is the only tea I have come across that I can stand to drink cold.http://www.tripleleaf-tea.com/chol.htm

    I need to get myself a new teapot though as my old one broke.

  • Link

    I REALLY want to get into loose leaf tea but moneyyyy :C I love orange teas though <3

  • Link

    Tea isn't much my thing though I appreciate the smell... I'm trying to find a tea that suits more to me.

  • Link

    I don't really like tea that much, though my only real reference is stuff like Lipton (which my former Mandarin teacher hated with a passion; he actively tried to get me to try different teas).
    My mom, older sister, and aunt are all big tea drinkers though. They really like Teavana, which we've got nearby, and I think the one they were drinking the other day was an Orange Blossom one?
    But yeah, different teas all sound like they'd taste so good, but I just haven't had the time to get into tea. |D

  • Link

    I love tea! Mostly black tea (or what they call red tea in China - my little sister sends sends me wonderful stuff from there) and fruit and flower blends. My current favourite is just a piece of ginger and a slice of lemon in boiling water. Better than all the packaged lemon teas. WIth my black tea I love creamy flavoured blends, like Highland toffee (amaaaaaazing with sugar and milk).
