Who likes tea? Any fanatrics?

I drink Lipton sweet tea everyday of my life.....I think my Mama may have put it my baby bottle.
I hate green tea/hot tea/favored tea.........Just good ol Lipton and sugar for me.
I quit ordering tea with my meals at restauants. Cuz most of it taste like it was made in a dirty work boot.......I order water instead.
 
I never understood the appeal of coffee at all. When my sister and I were kids, we were assured that someday, we would like it. Nope, neither of us can stand the stuff, but we both like tea. She's a green tea freak, but I like plain old black tea, hot is ok, iced is preferred, with it a little sweet. I've tried all kinds of teas over the years and some were, well, disgusting (Earl Grey), some were OK, but black is always the best. Usually, it's Lipton, but I'm not picky about brand. Honey, sugar, cinnamon, it's all OK as a sweetener, with cinnamon, the good stuff not the cheaper kind, my favorite. I used to make iced tea in a Mr. Coffee, and it was as black as any coffee, but in my old age, I just want it to look about the same as Pepsi or Coke. If I could, I would drink Pepsi with every meal, and in between, I love it to an almost insane degree.
 
I used to love a good cup of Earl Grey with honey and a little sugar, but then I started getting kidney stones on a regular basis. Tea is supposed to be high in oxalate, so I quit drinking any kind of tea. I miss it.
 
Drinking coffee as I read here. Figuring it up. I probably drink at least 5 gallons of tea per week.....Don't care to much about carbonated colas. If I drink one it's a Pepsi. And you can count one hand with fingers left over on how many of those I drink per month.
 
Try some Rooiboos.
My gf just discovered rooibos and likes the vanilla blend. She got some Positively from Amazon, which she ikes but she has now settled on a blend from Spice Hut in Bellingham WA, although it's more expensive (but local for her).

My fav. is Yorkshire Gold loose leaf tea, which a local shop brings in from the UK to ensure it's the full-strength UK blend, raher than the weaker "export" stuff. It's available on Amazon and I believe the loose tea sold there is "UK strength", which may not be true for the bags.
