I also drink green tea.

It looks pretty much like....that.

And what might that be?

green tea

See? That's why I don't drink the stuff

Its nice! In the last couple of years I have started to drink green tea and other teas. I no longer take it with milk so its nice-especially the Morrocan Mint Tea made fresh!

I drink lots of tea, just not green tea. But I usually brew mine by the gallon with the sugar mixed into the whole batch and drink it cold - I've tried different kinds of warm tea, and my sister forced me to try it with milk, I just don't have a taste for it.

I used to always drink mine with milk until I started spending time over in Holland. After a while my taste buds just rejected the taste of milk in teas and yet I still need sugar!

I also learnt never to drink more than one cup of camomile tea in any given a day...6-7 cups a day can make one feel very sleeeeepppppppyyyyyyy......

I can't stand green tea. It emanates sheer wrongness to my senses, sorta like the Illearth Stone.

And yet, I love all other kinds of herbal tea.

Herbal tea

Herbal teas can be made with fresh or dried flowers, leaves, seeds or roots.

I like lots of different kinds of teas. I generally drink them without sugar. Some I have with milk - I almost always have black tea with milk, unless it has a fruit or citrus-y flavoring.
I will very occasionally add honey to my tea.

And I did recognize the second pic as dried tea leaves, sarge.

This is my favorite kind of tea. . .

It's Earl Grey De La Creme from Special Teas.

Flavored with the same oil of bergamot as our classic Earl Grey (No. 820) but with a hint of vanilla and cream. A smooth and aromatic blend with a wonderful creamy-fruity flavor that appeals to a wide range of tastes. Even if you are not an Earl Grey fan, we recommend you try this tea.

My grandmother emigrated from England, and she loved her Earl Grey tea every day. She's the one who introduced me to hot tea. Anyway, though I love Earl Grey, the De La Creme is incomparable.

Another favorite tea from Special Teas is the 801, the English High Grown Leaf.

Aromatic breakfast blend of high-grown Ceylons, fine Assam and Nilgiri teas. The result is a complimentary blend of flavors with nice honey notes.

The Ceylon Dimbulla (318) is also quite good, even iced.

Beautiful wiry leaves, a red-golden liquor and delicate chocolate-citrus notes are the character traits of this aromatic orange pekoe from the famous Dimbulla region. A smooth and complex, medium-strong tea of exceptional quality. Highly recommended both hot and iced.

Every time you order from Special Teas you can choose a sample to be sent with your order, and it was quite a nice surprise when I got the Holiday Dream once.

Savor your Holiday memories with this heavenly blend of fine China and Ceylon black teas with citrus peels, cloves, rose petals, almond bits and pieces of genuine Bourbon Vanilla.

Each tea I've ordered from Special Teas has been excellent, so I'd readily endorse them to anyone. And no, I get no discount or renumeration for my endorsement. I'm just a tea enthusiast.

i prefer a cup of joe

I prefer water, and diet coke, but that's just me.

because of my kidneys i drink coffee maybe once every couple of months. mostly i drink this... lots and lots...

I played sports throughout high school, so I'm a water person myself...If I want something else, I'm more likely to go for vitamin water or gatorade than anything else.

I love coffee, too. But water is the healthiest beverage.
