I am having OO-LONG TEA this morning.

OO-LONG tea is something a lot of times I just don't drink.
It's been a oo-long time since I last had a cup.
I have been drinking black and orange teas all my life but OO-LONG tea is a bit strange tasting. Maybe it's just the tea. Hmm.
I wonder if tea bags of tea last a year. I had tea that I kept in storage for over a year and still drank a cup. I wonder if that is a good thing?
I think it is, based on the article below by Wellness Mama.
Oolong tea is recommended by several popular diets and this ancient tea does have some science-backed health benefits (and a few cautions!)

I have tried Oolong Tea and I thought it was good.

@lookatdesktop I am not sure how long tea can sit like that.

@Marty1 , for me I have Lipton tea for cold iced tea. I brew it and some call it liquid napalm because it is much stronger tea than they usually get from either a restaurant or from instant. I agree. It is pretty strong but you can always add ice and wait for it to melt into the tea thus reducing it's strength of flavor.

In Chinese it means Black Dragon Tea, for more info on this go to the site as linked below.

@myhuka , I just read about it being called Black Dragon Tea and this is a nice name for it. It makes it really sound like a drink for a Ninja Warrior. I like Ninja Warrior movies a lot. Kung Fu and all that. I try to enjoy those movies because they have such vitality and action and such.

Thanks, @snowy22315, I will. I can't just throw it away as it is hard to find. I shop in so many stores and find some very good ones. I have tried over 30 teas that I know of and continue to try new flavors. It is kind of a habit of mine. I buy a new type of tea once a month. What is your favorite?

I thought this was going to be mostly a play on words in that it's been (t)oo long (since you've drank that) tea. I've never heard of that before, so thanks for the link. It was quite interesting and I like how the author listed all their sources.
If you keep tea or coffee or other stables in the freezer you could probably still drink or use it after a year. I think if it's not buggy that would be the main thing. If anything it would probably lose it's taste and it may also lose it's effectiveness, but I don't really know. You'd have to search that out yourself.

I wonder if you write oolong in all caps for a reason, is it just because it's kind of a funny word? I like black tea, but I don't know if I've had OO-LONG tea before, lol

I did it so the name would STAND OUT. Kind of the same as shouting it out loud so it can be heard. But hey, I like to use CAPs because it appeals to me.

@ilocosboy , Hmm. It must be good and if it's called 3-in-1 sachet it sounds very special. I would like a cup of that coffee.

It is very hard for me to say. I think it is unusual but with sugar it is mild tasting. They say it is similar to black tea or green tea but I bed to differ. It has a taste all its own.

It is a good tea in my opinion but I don't know if it can be stored over a year and still be as good.
