Good, freshly brewed, unadulterated (as in "without any additives") green tea is the first choice. Good black tea with some Stevia (to take the edge off the bitterness) is the second choice.Beats any other hot drink, if you ask me. 

Occasionally, a slice a lemon is allowed; at the same time, any dairy products in tea (which is a common thing in the UK) amount to blasphemy Stern Smile

Hardly the first poll on the subjectWink
 
for ex:
http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=79237&KW=tea
 
when drinking it hot, I prefer green tea, but when making my own ice tea, I always (or often) use black tea
 
In either case , a bit of sugar (rarely honey)... never milk 
 
and always lemon  if I add anything else in black tea
 
With green tea, I can add a licorice stick or a cinamon wood shaving... And these things can be used a few dozens of times... they still give

Green tea for me. Plain green and green with jasmine are delightful. Although some black teas are lovely; I rather enjoy Lapsang Souchong, Earl Grey, Lady grey and a delightful brew I was gifted by the name of Spiced Imperial (cinnamon, vanilla, citrus peel and cloves). And also, completely herbal teas (non tea-teas!), the most lovely of which is the Bedtime brew from Yogi Tea. It truly is a sumptuous feast for all the senses, were it not for the fact that it technically contains no tea per say and is instead a blend of ayurvedic herbs and spices, I would probably say it is my favourite.
Man...I love tea...]]> Thu, 24 Jan 2013 18:09:41 +0000 http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=91702&PID=4707556#4707556 Tea. : Originally posted by Snow... http://www.progarchives.com/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=91702&PID=4707544#4707544 Author: zeqexes

I quit drinking coffee a month ago or so, just to try to be less dependent on caffeine. But as a consequence I'm drinking more black tea now.. I like various kinds, but am not a fan of smoked tea like Lapsang...I used to really like it.  I have never felt any caffeine effect from green tea, but I've read that it is supposed to have caffeine, just half as much compared to black tea.

I like green tea though. But it's very different from black tea. It gives a healthy feeling.

I like mostly Assam although some darker Darjeelings are also nice.  Twinings' Price of Wales blend is good, which I think has some greens in it but is basically a black tea.
 
Stash in the U.S. has some really good black teas like their Chinese Keemun and several Assam blends.
