I love any brand of Earl Grey but the Starbucks full leaf variety makes for real comfort. Green tea is always a good choice. I take it plain. An online friend recommended Constant Comment by Bigelow and I fell in love with it. It has a great orange-spice aroma to it, like a very spiced up Earl Grey. I discovered gunpowder tea around last year and it was such a delight. It's like drinking flowers.

I hope you like it! The Starbucks green tea full leaf blend smells ginger-y and might need a bit of honey. Either way, it makes for a health boost! :)

Regular dark tea with lemon and honey I like. It's black tea and I think the taste comes from bergamot. Also green tea if it's peppermint. Esspecially if it's homemade, my grandmother likes to make it, it's the greatest. It's best for when I'm sick because I hate chamomille and just can't drink it to save my life. Also mixed fruits and blue fruits tea. I also drink ice tea, but only lemon, I hate the peach ones. Caramel is also great and raspberry.

How can you survive on only 5 cups a day? I like English Breakfast Blend and Yorkshire Tea and like to take them is in the English tea ceremony or afternoon tea as we call it
The Method
Firstly empty the kettle and clean it of any scale.
Let the tap run and fill the kettle from fast running water.
Heat the teapot with boiling water.
To the teapot, ceramic not metal, add one teaspoon of good tea, such as English Breakfast Blend to the pot for each cup and one additional measure.
When the water has boiled pour into the pot from a height to ensure maximum aeration.
Stir and cover the pot with a cosy, leave for 3 to 5 minutes.
The room.
Ensure you have a quiet room, with perhaps a slow ticking clock (Less than one tick a second) and birdsong.
Arrange the curtains or blinds so that the room is darkish but if possible with some sunlight filtering through.
Whilst you are waiting for the tea to brew you will begin to relax and unwind.
Enjoying the tea.
Serve the tea on a tray with a small jug of cold milk, heating milk changes its flavour. Also you will need some cups, saucers and tea spoons. The teaspoons are important even if, like me, you don't take sugar since they produce the correct noise against the cup and saucer. Pour the tea on from a height to ensure maximum aeration and add just a little milk and sugar if desired but only a very small amount.
Beginners may take some 'McVities Rich tea biscuits or Digestives', a cucumber sandwich but should avoid items such as scones that may be enjoyed by those proficient in the art.
If you feel the need to talk confine your conversation to subjects such as the weather but leave long pauses for reflection.
If done correctly this will produce perfect relaxation and clarity of mind.
all the best urban

I love a cup of tea, and can't wake up without one. I buy PG Tips and Earl Grey and mix them together. I seem to be one of a dying breed as I make tea in a teapot using loose leaves. I'm in the UK, so don't know if PG Tips is available where you are.
