Yes. I drink whatever tea is available as long as it isn't minty. Or min-tea.

GR C1713 May 2012 6:03 p.m. PST

I have some peach tea, but I'm making Earl Grey with a shot of scotch right now. (don't worry its just Dewers) :)

As a good Marxist I have to drink fruit tea – proper tea is theft.

cfielitz13 May 2012 6:09 p.m. PST

Once in awhile as an iced tea.

SBminisguy13 May 2012 6:32 p.m. PST

Earl Grey for me!! Or a nice Jasmine tea.

Rich Bliss13 May 2012 6:32 p.m. PST

Yes
I prefer a nice spiced mate though

J Womack 9413 May 2012 6:43 p.m. PST

Nope. Black tea, over ice.

Volstagg Vanir13 May 2012 7:00 p.m. PST

Resplendent Rasberry or Perfumed Peach is a treat, iced,

Earl Grey for me – in a nicely warmed teapot – Darjeling or a nice oolong in a pinch

Personal logo enfant perdus Supporting Member of TMP13 May 2012 7:49 p.m. PST

Sometimes.

Looking at the present contents of my tea chest, I note a nice China black with cherry and almonds, an amazing pouchong with jasmine and orange peel, and a rather ordinary but pleasant white tea with plum and forest berries. If we are to lump flowers in with fruits (why not?) I also have a newly acquired oolong with hibiscus and a jasmine pu-erh.

Arrayed against those are two other types of pu-erh, three different types of lapsong souchong, a Sri Lankan FBOP, Golden Monkey (Fujian), winter picked Tung Ting, Qi Lan, Ti Kuan Yin, Golden Dragon oolong (Long-tou Mountains), and a very little bit of Shui Xian. In the cupboard over the stove is a pack of Yorkshire Gold, for emergencies.

SECURITY MINISTER CRITTER13 May 2012 7:56 p.m. PST

Yes usually iced!

Charles Marlow13 May 2012 8:56 p.m. PST

Yes, Mint occassionally but usually, English Breakfast, Earl Grey or Green.

Depends what you mean by "fruit tea".
If it means tea entirely made up of fruit, that is not tea! It is the vile concoction of Birkenstock wearing demons in pony tails intended to tempt the unwary.
However, I do enjoy black or green teas with fruit mixed in, my favourites being blackberry, blackcurrent, lady Londonderry (strawberry and lemon) and I've recently discovered a tangy grapefruit (all black teas).

Cerdic13 May 2012 11:08 p.m. PST

Isn't fruit tea something that only neo-hippy women drink?

Personal logo x42brown Supporting Member of TMP13 May 2012 11:40 p.m. PST

Yes and many other infusions

Yes – iced tea with a touch of Mango juice.

Marcus Maximus13 May 2012 11:50 p.m. PST

Try Lemon and Giner Tea by Twinnings – it's like going back to Singapore 1921….

I drink porper Tea, very rarely fruit teas, although the Lemon and ginger is rather nice.

I very rarely drink coffee these days, in fact it's been 5 years now….since brown stuff touched my lips…

Cardinal Hawkwood14 May 2012 1:46 a.m. PST

Earl Grey, Irish Breakfast Tea, or Green Tea for me.

Dn Jackson Supporting Member of TMP14 May 2012 5:30 a.m. PST

Now and then – grapefruit is nice warm or cold.

Angel Barracks14 May 2012 2:19 p.m. PST

No – I don't like it

Waco Joe14 May 2012 2:38 p.m. PST

Rasberry ice tea, preferably Liptons.

14Bore14 May 2012 3:58 p.m. PST

Sometimes

Glengarry 414 May 2012 6:22 p.m. PST

It is so sad that for so many unfortunate Americans all they know of tea is Lipton's tea, an inferior blend. They just don't know any better, I suspect if they had access to better teas they might drink tea more often. In fact, I drew a mini-comic story about searching for a decent cup of tea in Columbus, Ohio.
