Hot herbal green tea with honey. My 14 year old likes it this way too, I have to hand it to him for not only liking tea, but being brave enough to try it in the first place.

That's awesome. Green tea is a very healthy choice, too.

I normally don't really sweeten my tea. Lately, I don't do much caffeine so I've been doing a lot of herbal teas.

It really depends on my mood what I want, so, my answers above aren't all the same cup of tea, haha.

Lately, I've been drinking iced decaf black tea with an infusion of Red Zinger. Loooove it.

I like a lot of different teas, but they all usually have honey, milk and sugar in. Definitely prefer tea to coffee.

I was way to confused by all those options

I prefer having brown tea(like lipton or mcdonalds) with suger and ice, but I also drink green tea and brown tea (hot)with sugar and creamer

I drink two different types of tea. Strong English tea (a special blend exported from Hong Kong for brewing Hong Kong Style milk tea), and Taiwan High Mountain Oolong. I usually add original flavored Coffeemate and sugar to my milk tea; and drink my Taiwan Oolong plain because it's extremely fragrant and doesn't require additional stuff added. Too bad the Chinese tea shop in southeast Portland (in Fubonn Center) just closed its doors, or else you can get Taiwan Oolong tea leave there.

I'm a coffee drinker but recently had to give it up so I started drinking tea instead. Herbal teas don't have caffeine and I add a little honey to them. I have a mint green tea without caf that I drink on its own. Sometimes camomile tea is nice at night.

I really enjoy this type of Japanese Green tea I get from TeaGschwender. I normally have it with some sugar.

Around Christmas, I have my black tea with some peppermint candies dropped in. And when I have a tummy ache, I have black tea with some ginger candies (either hard candy or crystallized ginger). XD It's delicious and festive or soothing. I've done citrus-flavored vitamin C drops too.

When I have it that way it's a treat, not a usual thing.

Oh I love that Red Zinger sometimes, it's great.

I have my tea differently every day, so that's why I have so many answers up there.

I love black tea plain, black with sweetener, black with soy milk and sweetener, black with lemon and sweetener, black with thyme, black with candies (for special occasions!), and black with spices, sweetener and soy milk (chai). I like many types of black, too... Assam, Darjeeling, breakfast blends, etc.

For matcha I almost always have it sweetened with soy milk over ice. Mmm.

Oh, and I forgot Bubble Tea with tapioca balls on the list! Darn it!

My favorites are:
jasmine green (hot, unsweetened)
white rose (hot, unsweetened)
earl or lady grey (hot, sweetened, soy or almond milk)
iced black tea (sweetened, no lemon)
herbal tisanes: mint, thyme, clover, ginger, etc. (hot, sweetened or unsweetened)
bubble tea!

I will drink almost any variety of tea as long as it isn't too bitter.

Also, I make the best chai in the world.

I LOVE tea! Just bought some more earlier tonight, haha. I usually always add sugar to my tea, though sometimes I'll use honey instead, or add milk. It all depends on what I'm drinking that day.

I'm not a huge tea fan but in the summer I love to get the Passion fruit Iced Tea at Starbucks. I love fruity teas

Contributor: VelvetDragon VelvetDragon
I'm really glad to see I'm not the only person who drinks tea warm, but not hot. At Starbucks I ask for "tepid", which I think is 130ish degrees. It's still a LITTLE warm for me, but much better than hot. My poor sensitive mouth! One of my SOs drinks tea SCALDING.

Jasmine is delicious tea. I have both Jasmine black and Jasmine green! I love them both.

I like just about any kind of tea hot or iced and unsweetened. For black tea sometimes I add a bit of milk and honey if it's hot. I also make chamomile peppermint tea with candied ginger if I have a sore throat, it works wonders.
