I also drink hot tea. Drank tea from childhood. Never tried coffee until I worked in an office.
Yes, tea has been around for quite awhile, folks. Did we forget our very basic US history? The WHAT Act was one of the reasons for rebellion against the Crown?
Half of the kids in my history class were dozing off.
I have noticed on some beverage offerings in Fast Food Self Serve and in the grocery stores that various flavors of Teas are now being offered. Oh, and I like it a lot that they use SUGAR, not High Fructose Corn Syrup [in nearly ALL sodas] which gave my dad, brother, and cousin kidney stones.
What's your take? Do you like Tea too?
I like the raspberry tinged ones. And Walmart has Raspberry Tea powder too, tastes good enough for me.
OP--I know what you're getting at when you say that you notice there seems to be more offerings of tea in bottles and at fountain areas. I've noticed it too. There are now quite a few companies offering tea in jugs and bottles now. I like it because we aren't big soda drinkers... more tea drinkers.
I'm not a tea snob.....I drink the raspberry tea also. We also tend to get the diet Arizona green tea that has honey and ginseng.
Reading some of these previous comments makes me think that some people will gasp in horror that I also like to make sweet ice tea by steeping Luzianne tea bags and adding real sugar. Its so American...lol
I had never heard of simple syrup until a few seconds ago, on here.
I had never heard of sweet tea until a couple of years ago.
But I do love regular PG Tips tea, hot with milk. In the cold, dead of winter when it's horribly and bitterly cold, I need coffee sometimes. Otherwise it's PG Tips. Roobios (red tea) is in the cupboard too but it just doesn't measure up to PG Tips.
Whatever tea they serve in Chinese restaurants is usually pretty good too.
Rooibus tea is red not black? I stand corrected. It makes good hot tea but I still prefer black tea for cold.

Yep, that's a good cuppa. Builder's Tea is also quite good.
Gotta look for that Builder's Tea. Never heard of it. For some reason, I'm drinking coffee today. Arrrgh, it tastes so bitter and I forgot that it's not tea. It needs some sugar due to being so bitter.

I stand corrected.
