Default Do you drink flavoured teas?

I’ve never been a fan of English breakfast tea.

But I do love flavoured teas (peppermint, chamomile, matcha etc). The only flavoured teas I’m not a fan of are berry flavoured ones.

Love the liquorice one! I’m loving jasmine tea too at the moment.

I drink all kinds of teas and like to have it brewed in a teapot and served in a cup. Green tea (leafed), decaf green tea, ginger tea, blueberry tea, raspberry tea, chamomile, peppermint, matcha, lemon ginger... sometimes I mix different ones... certain spices I have I have to be careful of because of the bladder, so Licorice doesn't sound appealing... I've started eating ginger slices and sometimes having that with my teas and ramen for late night breaks/drama watching...

There's a Viet tea that I also make which is chopped fruit, add brewed green tea or jasmine tea, sweeten it up, add chia seas, mint leaves and then add ice.. I keep a mint plant for this purpose. I really recommend it and there's different variations that can be made.

Edit: Obviously also Southern black tea, which is just heaps of sugar in the south and usually big bags of Lipton steeped in large batches... and then add ice (ice is critical)... in the winter, I put it in a big thick glass cup and carefully reheat it in the microwave... and let the steam from the top of it spill into my sinuses... it helps so much with clearing throat and it's great for when I have a cold.

peppermint tea is good for digestion and ginger tea is a great anti inflammatory, green tea is good for anti oxidants. I've had them all and much prefer them to traditional tea

Agree with Niamh and Cherie, Yorkshire tea for me, nice and strong, not much milk. Don't get the flavoured, herbal tea thing at all, they smell nice but taste of nothing at all.

I hear you. I drink herbal teas (including CBD-ones) for the health-benefits but as far as setting down with a warm cuppa in front of the soaps is concerned, it’s not gonna be peppermint or even chamomile. The ritual of drinking tea-tea can’t be replaced by herbals. They serve different purposes, IMO.

A peppermint tea is ideal for indigestion/heartburn

Yes, but not for just cosying up and watching your favourite shows with custard creams/malted-milk biccies. Again, different teas, different purposes. There’s a difference between function and comforting, warming ritual. We eat salad and chocolate-biscuits for two different reasons.
