So, what's Oppo's stance on tea? I know it's not the most high octane drink, but I really love tea. To the point of buying any tea I like the look of (or find interesting). Lately, whenever I'm not drinking beer you can find me drinking some sort of tea.
This is the current state of my tea cupboard. Nothing fancy, but a selection wide enough that I often have trouble deciding what to brew.

It was a very influential car, yes... who knows where we'd be without it.

Eh?
The headline clearly says that this is off topic, ergo not about cars.

Lipton tea with 1 cup of sugar per gallon. Thats the only tea I need.
Actually whole foods carries itoen apple tea which is addictive.

I love tea! Drink it all the time. I used to try all of the fruity flavors, but lately I just feel wrong if I'm not drinking black English breakfast tea.

I forgot to add that this is my favorite tea. I don't even need to drink it. I could just sit there with the tin taking an occasional sniff. It smells that good.

Chinese green, or English black, and no milk in the Earl Grey.

Tea is my beverage of choice. I prefer loose leaf green tea mainly.

If you love tea as much as you say you do, you need to upgrade from the grocery store varieties. It's a whole other experience. Everything you need is here: http://www.uptontea.com

Yea, I know. There's even a fancy tea store close to me, I just never got round to going there.

I cannot force myself to drink any tea. Not hot, not cold, sweetened or unsweetened, any flavor. Just can't do it.
Except.
Except this San Benedetto Peach tea I drank in Iraq and Afghanistan. It's doesn't have that tea "taste" to it, it's like if you mixed tea and koolaid. I ignored it when I was in Germany but in the desert there comes a time when you just can't drink anymore water because you're so sick of it.

Oh man...go there! The people are usually way nicer than you expect them to be and they're used to explaining to people about loose leaf tea and the few things you need to be able to enjoy it. You'll be totally obsessed before you know it!

I'll let this picture speak for itself. I'll let this one speak as well. Also I have a bunch more downstairs.

I used to love to double brew Tazo Awake with Lipton Orange Spice, but I think Lipton discontinued it as I haven't seen it anywhere recently.
Also, have you heard of Yogi Teas? They make a supremely delicious tea called Aztec Sweet Chili. It's like drinking dark chocolate with a chili pepper. Gives you tons of energy, no caffiene too.

I've not heard of Yogi Teas before. I'll make sure to look around to see if they sell 'em here!

I just rip the string off and put the bag in my pot. Less faffing about that way.

You should give these guys a try. My wife went through a tea phase a few years back, and this stuff was some of the best we tried.

If nothing else, they are worth ordering. I seem to recall that I could get a much better price when I ordered it that I could local.

Tea is awesome. (And warm!)
I tend to like minty and fruity teas. Mmmm.
