What type of tea do you drink and why?

I drink Yorkshire Tea.

My Mum drinks it and loves it (she's from Yorkshire!) I really have got into drinking it since we got closer recently as when I sit down for a cuppa I think of her!

I hate tea yuck

I drink Asda fair trade tea cos it tastes nice. At work I drink green tea though, so I don't have to get involved with the terrible office politics of the milk kitty

Sounds like my office!! Some people can get so funny about how much they pay because so and so has milky coffee and they only have a spot of milk so they should pay less.... it's awful!!!

They asked me if I wanted to join the kitty and they'd buy hot chocolate and squash as well, but I thought I was better off well clear!

I drink PG tips, but you can't beat co-op tea

You have to pay for milk at work? Our work pays for the milkman to deliver it every morning! Not that it matters I dont have milk in my coffee.
Have gone off tea but I LOVE earl grey when I'm in the mood!!

We get free tea, coffee, hot chocolate, toast and bagels at work and it's a school. Very often staff don't get a break as it is a split site school.

I like a strongish fair trade tea- Morrisons is quite good.

We had to pay for our tea/coffee/biscuits at our school- but it was 40p a day- bargainous, you can't get a cup of tea in a cafe for that.

co-op tea is very very similar to Yorkshire tea - thats what my mum always buys but as i dont have a co-op close by i just buy Yorkshire tea

i like it strong - but - i put the milk in first as otherwise the tannins in the tea are really bitter but if you put the milk in first then slowly pour the water directly on the teabag whilst lifting it as the water gets higher then leave to steep for a few mins it makes the perfect brew!!
