Milk and 2 sugars. Usually around 4 - 5 cups a day. In fact I'm going to have my second one of the day now and get dunking some McVities Chocy Digestives.


Think I'm going to be sick.

the title of this thread is triggering me - no apostrophe, tea capitalised for no reason, the question doesnt have a ? but an ellipsis instead :dread:

I try it once every ten years or so, just to make sure I still detest it. Got about three years to go, thankfully.

This thread is not actually mine but one from GRcade’s very early days in 2008. I just bumped it and the mods deleted the old posts.

Yes but you may find the tea tastes a bit salty afterwards.

That's where the fruit teas help.

Speaking of which I picked up some pineapple green tea tonight, I'll give it a go tomorrow.

I drink clippers but starting to get a bit expensive so have one in the morning and then just habitually drink cheaper tea during the day, helps with the lethargy but probably shouldn't drink caffeine at all. At least 4 or 5 cups per day.

I drink so much tea in a day. Yorkshire Tea, small amount of milk and no sugar.

I have IBS too. Will give this a try! Thanks

Yeah. I have the Breakfast blend too which is £7.50 for 50 bags. I always stock up everytime that I'm in London town. Got the Wedding Breakfast blend, Royal blend and their Earl Grey too.
I have the loose version as well which is much better value for money! 250g for about £10.95. I take the teabags to work :) nice to have something good at work to keep me going haha

Obviously I drink other tea too. I really like Typhoo at the moment...even though it is cheap. Used to drink Clippers but finding it a bit too strong.

Was in Glasgow this week and saw a T2 Tea shop. They are Australian so bought the Melbourne breakfast tea to try. Also got some Topshelf tea from Teavana when I was in the US. One of the blends is called Monkey Picked tea! Legend has it the tea leafs are picked by monkeys.

I'm a big tea fan and always like to try new teas.
