What are some good teas?

[DietSoap]

Not Lipton or Snapple. I mean types of tea. I want good hot teas preferably.

[AkumaTX]

go to a tapioca shop and get a lichi or honey black tea with tapioca.

[white shadow]

Wow I actually saw "What are some good tetas?" when I first glanced.

It's all Salma's fault I tells ya.... >_>

Oolong tea http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oolong

I drink it every morning. Very good diuretic, lots of health benefit, and very low caffeine. The specific type I drink is

Alishan (阿里山茶

This has large rolled leaves that have a purple-green appearance when dry. It is grown in Chiayi County, Taiwan at an elevation of from 3000 to 4500 feet. There is a short period of the day with full sun and this produces a sweeter and less astringent brew. It produces a golden yellow liquid which has a unique fruity aroma.[8]

[Figcoinc]

The Green Teas are a good staple. It is good for you and mixed with a touch of honey it is very good.

[diifii]

get Camomile tea. its great. it helps you relax, very healthy and its very good for your digestive system. this tea is made from flowers and different herbs.
i drink it a few times a day. with honey.
never put milk in it.

[Fadedsun303]

This is my favorite green tea. Serve it hot with no sugar or anything.

I like Green Tea with a little bit of sugar to take away the bitter edge. White tea is also good, a lot like Green tea but less caffeine. Green tea is also hella good for you.

I drink Black Tea when I'm in the mood, enough milk to make it tan colored and a few things of sugar.

As far as cold green teas go, I like green tea with honey and sweetened iced tea, not too much else.

Earl Grey.

Hot.

...seriously.

[Logos]

I second the Earl Grey. That's some quality stuff.

Chai/White/Green/Black tea are all great as well.

If you get Celestial Seasonings out there you should try it out. It's a great company based here in Boulder that makes some amazing tea.

[Rhio2k]

Earl Grey.

Hot.

...seriously.

Grandad in The Real ep of The Boondocks: "Hoo-hoo, boy, you ain't NEVER lied!"

Earl Grey is THE shit.

[SlayerofBodom]

Strawberry and blueberry teas are awesome, but apricot black tea is absolutely God-tier.

I'll second the sentiment that darjeeling is very high-tier, too.

Edit

I used to think Earl Grey was the shit back when I was a fourteen year old idiot who had recently graduated from drinking Lipton crap.

Nowadays, I realize that Ahmad Tea is where it's at. Jackson's of Piccadilly is also great. Probably the first time I've ever disagreed with Rhio2k, incidentally.

[Hoonyo]

green tea is all right as long as it isn't too bitter.

this one is kinda bitter but i liked it: http://www.itoen.com/resources/OiOcha.cfm

started drinking it one day when my dad brought home a case. started looking around for it and found out it on my campus.

What's the crappiest tasting tea?

Green Tea: The Tea of Ninjas. :tup:

I must look into this apricot black tea you speak of. Where can I find it?

[RyuHikaru]

Raspberry Tea is just purely amazing.

[SlayerofBodom]

Raspberry Tea is just purely amazing.

I feel like a complete idiot for omitting to mention this one. RH is absolutely correct; raspberry tea is truly spectacular.

These are the ones I drink

http://www.ahmadtea.com/our_products/fruity_black/20_fruit_teabags/

I didn't pay for any of them; the parents of one of my friends just gave me a bunch when they learned I liked tea. I should probably ask whether they bought them off the Internet (as the site mentions), or at a specialty shop.

Either way, Ahmad Tea is the only company I know of that makes them. I also recall liking the companies Jacksons of Piccadilly and to a lesser extant, Twinings (which gave me my eventual dislike of Early Grey, however), so you could probably check out if they make them, too.

Long Island Iced.

[Stuart Hayden]

English Breakfast Tea is pretty good.

One of my old customers gave us this AMAZING tea from India...I wish I could remember the name of it. D:

[DJTakashi]

Long Island Iced.

Close second, for sure. The cafe's in Barnes and Noble usualy sell a good blackberry tea that I wholeheartedly endorse. You can buy a box to take with you. Great with bagels in the morning.

[strakka]

Pu-Erh is good stuff, provided you can get your hands on a good batch of it. I had that all the time when I was in China, and it was unspeakably good.

You should also try Genmaicha, which is Japanese green tea with roasted rice.

[woof]

green tea

cold or hot, just as long as its not too sweet :7)
