I am addicted to iced tea. Almost 2 gallons a day. Been that way since I was about 12 and I am now 35. I can't stand coffee, and soda pop just doesn't do it for me.

You sound like my twin! I remember first drinking iced tea at 15/16. And have not stopped since! Morning, noon or night, winter or summer...Iced tea all day long. IN the winter when it is cold, I'll drink it hot in the am's, but by noon I am breaking the ice!

i used to be a big pop drinker...but it is so expensive anymore - i can make 500 cups of tea for the same price as a two liter!! i never was a coffee drinker until i started working in an office and that was all there ever was to drink...now i might have it once a week when we go out to breakfast just for a change of pace. thanks for the response!!

I start with coffee and switch to tea as the day goes on. With all the news about the benefits of tea, both black and green, makes it an extra plus to be drinking it huh? I switch to green tea at night since I'm under the impression from somewhere that it has less caffeine? If I were home all day, I'd have a pot brewing more often I think. We're talking hot tea here right? My son drinks gallons of it every week, but with milk....Whit

i drink it hot or cold...caffeine doesn't seem to have any effect on me anymore unless i'm going through withdrawal. I have seen people put milk in their tea and coffee. this seems so weird to me. i am not a big milk drinker...i either have to mix milk with chocolate pudding, muffin mix, cereal, or protein shake for me to take it.

Me and Lipton are the best of friends! I drink probably a gallon a day - in the cooler months- up close to 2 a day in summer! But I do have to say to, sometimes it is so hot, the the ice cubes melt faster than I can drink it and I dump what is in there and start over, but I do drink alot! I can't remmber the last time I drank anything else - soda, etc. I have compared the green and black teas, and they are so close, I dont' see why change.

i don't drink mine with ice...i blame this on my super sensitive teeth though...for awhile after having some cavities filled it was so bad i was actually microwaving tap water! i used to be a big time mountain dew addict...now i am drinking tea "black" - no sugar whatsoever. sometimes i'll make raspberry tea or try other kinds if i'm in the mood for something different. thanks for the response!

i like green tea a lot, too. i tend to drink it more in the summer for some reason? i would drink coffee more, but i don't really like cold coffee and i don't like how it gets all murky if you leave it on for too long...tea i can drink hot or cold. thanks for the response!

Hello,Vera! In normal circumstance I consume 10/12 cups of black tea added with ginger,bay leaf,leaf of tulsi plant and just one or two drops of lemon.It boosts the energy and keeps me just fit for the whole day.I do not like tea with milk as it creates gastric problems.thank you.
