RE: Favorite flavor/brand of tea?

Love, Love, Love Tea.  So, in response to your Mighty Leaf query, it's great.  All of the flavors are great.  Also love Paradise Tea.  They sell this in decaf.  It has a great passion fruit and floral taste too it.  Beyond that, I also agree with Republic of Tea Ginger Peach and I also like their Blackberry Sage.  I particularly like the bottled variety that you can get at Dean and Deluca.  I think it tastes better from the bottle than it does from the bag...


Also, I recommend loose tea and using a "tea spoon".  IMO when you brew from loose tea, it just tastes so much better than when you brew from crushed stuff in bags...

I drink tea every day, coffee is reserved for dinner's out to wrap things up.


My favorite for everyday (I literally bring it to work) is Lipton Orange Passionfruit Jasmine green tea (I believe that's how it's worded). Anyway it is great


When I have the time and energy I drag myself to Starbucks and get a venti Chai Tea Lattee with vanilla soy milk.


I also love my Earl Grey with cream. For some reason I only drink it on the weekends, I guess I'm feeling a little decadent when I break out my favorite Earl.

Tea - my new favorite addiction. I favorite is Republic of Tea - my favorite is the Honey Ginseng but because it is so high I have been testing some others. I also really like Cooper's Shades of Jade (2nd favorite) & Yogi Tea's Bedtime tea which is chamomile & I actually like it better than the republic of tea chamomile lemon - but I got that cool Melita one*one maker for christmas and yogi is bags, not pods. I also really like the ROT Kiwi Pear & Honeysuckle white tea - I really wish they would do a "sample variety" type pack so that i didn't have to spent $8- $12 per package just to try the flavors!!!

I am intrigued by the rose petal tea - but it was $$$$ - I'll have to try it since i think it is limited addition.

I also bought some really cool tea mugs from Anthro to try to make the tea time special - I am fighting an extreme Dt coke addiction & am down to 2 a day thanks to the tea!

My fav is Aveda Comforting Tea.....it just makes me feel good and clears out my head.



Benefits. Our calming, flavorful tea promotes a sense of well-being-and tastes delicious. The caffeine-free herbal blend includes peppermint leaf, licorice root and other pure flower essences.


  • Refreshes the senses
  • Soothes body and mind
  • Non-sweetened
  • Drink hot or cold


I also like Earl Gray

I am now addicted to Mighty Leaf tea. I'm lovin the Mountain Spring jasmine green tea. I had it once at Washington Square restaurant and was blown away. I bought their large sampler pack online and am loving them all. Although the idea of a citrus chamomile seems counter productive, since citrus is supposed to give you energy and chamomile sooths you. It worked for me.


 I like the presentation of the bags and can usually get two cups of full flavor from each bag. mmmm good.
