Tea from yesterday morning. I didn’t have time to brew up a proper cup of tea as I would have liked (due to moving). So we stopped off at our local Dunkin’ Donuts and I got a cup thinking something was better than nothing. Well, as usual I should have done with nothing. This just keeps on getting more tasteless to me every time I try to choke down a cup of it. Lesson learned, next time I will do with nothing!

I drink this strong, iced, and with nothing else added, often and really like it (family tradition) but I have never liked it hot.

I can’t do this tea. Just can’t. I am still reminded that this was the only box of tea in the house when I was growing up… nobody ever drank tea… I think that the same box was probably there from the time I was eight until I moved out at 18. The thought of that old, stale tea… that is what I think of when I see that box.

Yeah I am never doing this tea again no matter what! Yuck!

This was what we always used to make iced tea when I was growing up. I used to add a ton of sugar and lemon so it ended up tasting like lemonade instead of Lipton tea. Which was a good thing. It was a real surprise when I recently found myself enjoying one of Lipton’s flavored teas recently — green tea with citrus and jasmine in some combination — with nothing added.

Lipton Orange Pekoe tea bags were also what one used to get in restaurants when ordering hot tea (except Chinese restaurants) when I was a kid, too. I never liked it.

Bio

I am a tea lover, a wife, mom of one, and servant to three cats (all rescues). I love to read and write. I’m also a BIG fan of the following shows: BBC Sherlock, Doctor Who, Law and Order, Supernatural, Bones, and more – bless Netflix.

I started drinking and enjoying tea when I was 7 (sure it was bagged Lipton, but it got me started) with my grandmother. As I said it was Lipton with milk and sugar (and peanut butter and jelly on toast) and my love just grew from there. I was brought to loose leaf through a trip to Teavana. But my taste has expanded to many different types of tea since then. I review teas at the link provided, check it out!
