How I did it: At home I have a bunch of teas because I first got hooked on green tea when I was obsessed with Japan and my dad loves trying new things, including teas. I'm pretty boring now and just have Lipton tea, but it is fun to put honey and lemon in it or just put sweet-n-lows in! Read how I did it…

How I did it: I had a lot of tea, but I found that I was not drinking much of it. I wanted to be as much of a tea drinker as I was a tea collector. I set out to drink tea every day. Hot tea in cold weather and iced tea in warm weather. Many teas brew well in the fridge with no heat applied, so making iced tea was easy. I got myself a nice whistling tea kettle that I liked using and started making tea with my breakfast on c… Read how I did it…

The weather today is cloudy and cool, so I am drinking hojicha. Hojicha is made from only stems, no leaves, so it has what seems to me a very fall like flavor.

I ran into a friend from high school, and he was giving out tea. so I drank tea at a rave. hells fucking yes. my life has gone up a level of awesome.
than the fact that I don’t do it. I just don’t do it enough.
I should spend some money at Dobra Tea and get some really good tea.
For some reason I’ve always said I dont drink tea, maybe something to do with trying it when I was little and not liking it. anyway last few months have involved lots more tea drinking of people around me, ie Ive got a job in an office, meeting new friends, meeting old friends. I’m a bit sick of everyone giving me old looks when I say I dont drink tea (after I tell them I’m an accountant as well i just become invisable). So here I am learning to drink tea to fit in with the rest of the world, and its not too bad.

Chai, peppermint, black, white, green, no matter what the leaf, I always make sure it’s doused in some steamed water and a fresh mug.
I had started drinking tea a few years ago when i had a bad cold and was desperate and have been drinking it since. :) Hot Black with a touch of milk
Mostly I wanted to acquire a taste for tea because I’d feel dorky getting a soda if someone invited me out for coffee. I tried green tea at first and didn’t really like that, then black tea which was a little better but not by much. I then realized I didn’t want to be dealing with caffeine so I tried herbal tea and that’s what I’m sticking with.
Tea is one thing that you really need to spend some good money on to get a good tasting product. I stay away from store brands and can always trust Bigalow, Celestial Seasonings and Stash to deliver a falvorful cup worth spending time with. My personal favorites: Mint Medley, Orange Spice Black Tea and Lemon Lift. Enjoy!
