---> Tea <---

[rushrock]

Yay tea! Tea has been around for thousands of years starting in Asia, and I bet that everyone here probably likes some type of tea. Not only is tea super tasty, but it's rich in antioxidants. Lots of research says that tea can be helpful in maintaining a healthy weight and cholesterol, preventing tumors and certain types of cancers, and helping the digestive tract (just some of the benefits). There's tons of tea types to choose from, too!

 

 

 

So, what's your favorite kind of tea? Do you think it can significantly benefit your health? Do you take your tea with milk/sugar (or anything else)?

 

 

 

1. My favorite kinds of tea are green, green with additional flavor (examples are blueberry, jasmine), and fruity tea. I like pretty much all teas though.

 

 

 

2. Yeah, definitely!

 

 

 

3. No, milk and sugar in tea is disgusting.

 

 

 

(I was drinking some Earl Grey when I made this thread.)

A cup of PG tips with 3 sugars and milk is quite frankly essential to getting essays in on time and student life in general.

 

 

 

It is of course, made better by a chocolate biscuit (preferably dunked)

I like green tea with sugar, honey, and cinnamon.

I used to have some of this great Vanilla tea I bought in Italy....it was so great with some coffee creamer and honey =P~ I ran out about a year ago, though, so no more for me :cry:

[Errdoth]

I was just thinking about this :)

 

 

 

I like green tea, with some lemon =)

[Master_the_Great]

You need to have honey in your green tea :-P you can not just have lemon! :XD:

ORLY?

I've never really tried anything in tea except sugar, which I hated. I pretty much assumed I would hate milk as well, as I always drink coffee black. Just the thought of milk in tea sounds gross. Maybe it's not the case for each type of tea, but...:-X

[BlueLancer]

Yeah, quite aware of tea's health benefits (especially Green tea), just can't be bothered to buy it since it needs to be heated and you need other accessories to make it drinkable... But that's just an excuse :oops:

 

 

 

I also read multiple articles, especially studies conducted in Japan/other asian countries, that green tea extends your lifespan if consumed regularly. It can also massively reduce the risk of other diseases.

 

 

 

Heck, I don't even care what a study says, if a japanese guy lives up to 116 years and says he did so by eating healthy and drinking green tea, I'm taking his word for it... :lol:

I take a cup of cocoa, thank you.

[Ragen]

Earl Grey

 

 

 

I absolutally love that stuff... and now I'm distracted from my coursework again cause I've got to put the kettle on.

[rushrock]

I take a cup of cocoa, thank you.

 

I like cocoa, too! :D

[meol]

Black tea for me, with milk and sugar, or sugar alone.

[elmo_killer6]

I'mo not really a huge fan of tea or ice tea, but for some odd reason I like Snapple White tea.

[henman888]

I like...

 

tea

 

coffee

 

cocoa

 

:thumbsup:

[Echofish]

I just like the normal everyday tea? 3 sugars and milk

[Will H]

:shock: I just finished my cup of tea when I spotted this.

 

My personal choice is English everyday/breakfast tea with milk and no sugar, but some green teas are nice to have once in a while.

[stan18]

i like tea with just sugar, just milk, or both

 

 

 

bubble tea, anyone?

[limpbizkit]

No cuppa is complete without the dunkable.

[angryjoe]

Much prefer coffee. :P

[Ginger_Warrior]

Completing Crew work whilst maintaining one's sanity, and working up to 99 Fletching/Cooking in RuneScape is simply an illusion without a good cup of tea. No sugars please. \

 

 

 

Then again, it does actually cause some cancers, and several other *ahem* inconvenient side-effects. :-k

Do you mean the fluoride content in tea? I might be wrong, but I thought it wasn't nearly large enough to cause significant damage. Tea does contain caffeine, but that's really a horrible problem...

[speedofsound]

Green tea and crumpets work for me.

[highlanders]

I loved all the types of teas I've tasted so far.

[SomeWelshGuy]

A cup of PG Tips, a little bit of milk, and no sugar is basically the perfect start, lunch, brunch, tea, dinner, supper and midnight snack compliment :P
