Your Favortie Type Of Coffee Or Tea?

[Anarchy]

@Anarchy
Could dry tea exist, as it's a liquid, mainly water, and I can't imagine as anything but wet

You'll get me into trouble again for quoting your whole post...

I suppose if you were desperate for a tea fix, you could chew or snort the tea leaves, like some people chew tobacco and snort snuff (powdered tobacco) Tastes disgusting though. You migh even be able to smoke it, which would certainly bring back thoughts of early teenage myths about things to get high on.

I used to like chocolate coated coffee beans, so yes, dry coffee exists, much to the disgust of anyone who gets on the receiving end of coffee breath.

Oh, tea with milk :p

Just water and the leaves here :p Though I did try drinking it with milk a few times

My standard tea recipe is

-Whatever is the tea made of
-Water
-Vitamin C

Snorting tea leaves? Wouldnt that do a lot of bad, sorta like snorting cinammon or eating dry cinammon?

Snorting anything is disgusting
I think that snuff would be the nearest comparison to joking about snorting tea leaves.

Think yellow brown stains and snot.

Snuff used to be popular with miners who worked in safety lamp mines ( potential for gas or dust explosions), that they weren't allowed to take cigarettes or matches and lighters into. It's almost like snorting chili powder,
It's strong too, lots of nicotine. Horrible stuff.

I'm a 'tea snob', as a friend calls me. I like loose-leaf, brewed in a pot, actual tea leaves, not ground or granules, and left to stand for 3 minutes. My favourites are Darjeeling, English afternoon, Russian Caravan, Ceylon. I'm also developing a taste for Earl Grey,which I never thought'd happen. I don't like coffee.

I'm kind of like that. It doesn't always only have to be loose leaves for me. But I do like to try different varieties of teas. I probably have 12 different teas. What I don't like are teas that are flavored with honey or vanilla or things like gingerbread.

I like to have things like my current favorite which has hibiscus and a mix of dry berries including cranberry which is floral and fruity. Or I like to have more traditional green white or oolong teas.

I do like when the standard teas are floral blended too. I have a green with jasmine that I love. Or a chamomile with lavender. Those I drink when I'm feeling particularly stressed or depressed. I find the fragrance soothing.

But when it comes to odd blends with vanilla or honey in the teabag itself I can't do it. I don't even like actual honey in my tea. I take it with just a little sugar. Occasionally with a thin slice of lemon and a little sugar in my green tea though.

@Anarchy, I needed that! I'm also stealing it and sending it to a friend.

Coffee, very rarely, double espresso or from a french press, black. :tup:

Tea, daily! :happy:

Lapsang Souchong
Chai (with sugar and additional cardamom)
Earl Grey (a little sugar)
Irish Breakfast (no sugar, but a little cream)

Herbal infusions...things with licorice root and anise and spices,
and various lemon and ginger things, and Gypsy Cold Care,
and all manner of things with lemongrass and other aromatics,
none with sugar. ;)

French press, local roasted...steamed milk with molasses sugar...oh dear.

I started drinking ginger tea with honey and some fresh sliced lemon added in. It's a little bitter and intense but it's supposed to be for a sort throat and it does help. But I love taking out the ginger soaked lemon slice after I'm done and tasting that. It's really good!

I drink Folger's 1/2 Caff and I love black tea.
