One loves one's tea

Define regular tea? Do you mean a pekoe, or just a black? Loose leaf or bagged? Now, we can talk blends, if you like.

How I take my tea is entirely dependent on the type of tea. Especially in terms of the preparation of said brew. If you brew your black teas the way you do your whites (in before Tails jokes) it just won't turn out. You can't scald white tea with boiling water, it burns the leaves and hurts the flavour. You also can't treat a chai like a roobios, etc.

I see your one shelf of tea and raise you the entirety of the door shelves in my closet-sized pantry. Top to bottom it is nothing but teas. You need different pots for different types, at least a few different types of tea balls and infusers. There's a whole process. And this is without getting into the intricacies of things like the Japanese tea ceremony.

Hell, even the sweetner used depends. You shouldn't sugar a roobios, it just doesn't taste right. But clover honey matches it brilliantly. Same thing with Darjeeling. I take my tea differently depending on mood, time of day, what flavour I'm after. But generally my favourite is a no-sweetner added Indian Chai.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Tetleys. A pekoe. A shot of lemon, for me. If I have to go bagged, I generally go with twinings.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Probably not, and if you do, it's one basic option like "green tea" so that the franchise can project its trendiness. Which proves that the sensible people are drinking coffee and getting shit done.

Yes. Because Tim Hortons hasn't made a huge deal about offering actual steeped tea.

I cannot say specifically.

But... But I'm not even -close- to the west coast?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

To make this post somewhat on topic, I don't like tea at all, honestly. And I stay away from coffee as well - very low caffeine tolerance. I prefer tea with added lemon and ice, and I don't know green tea from oolong tea.

The one great thing Texas has given us in the drink department: Unsweet tea.

I was speaking idiomatically.
