Huh. Facebook just sent me here today. I am astounded to see this post is a month old. It really hits home because my favorite tea, Celestial Seasonings English Breakfast, is no longer being produced, and I am looking for a new fave. .-= Kathy from Cold Climate Gardening´s last blog ..Snowfall Records =-.

My husband can barely get through an hour without a cup of tea. NO CREAM! We know better. Milk is only possible accompaniment. Tea is the brew whether I need refreshment and revivifying – or comfort.

I love tea…Persian tea, Indian tea, all of them. I’ve had great tea that was brewed in a “samovar” (forgive the spelling) an ancient middle eastern pot for brewing tea.

I am a newly converted tea drinker. I adore Earl Grey with milk and (although not a true tea) Yerba Mate with steamed milk & foam.
I found a wonderful tool, Aerolatte’s battery operated milk frother. Which is small for travel and creates the best foam for my Mate Latte.
Tea in the Garden…..too good to miss.

A big high five from a fellow tea drinker, only I drink mine straight since I can’t have dairy. I do like a little hemp milk now and then. Try getting that anywhere. We have an English tea shop in Oklahoma City. Come visit me sometime, and I’ll take you there.~~Dee

It’s very interesting to see someone so enthusiastic about something that, to us on this side of the pond is such a normal part of everyday life!

I think here if any cafe was out of tea, there’d be a huge outcry as you described with the coffee… I personally drink my tea with only a tiny splash of milk (here we call it skimmed milk, it’s basically like water with only around 1% fat) as I’ve discovered as i get older that I don’t like overly milky tea – only when I’m ill and it helps make you feel that little bit better

I’d be very surprised if there’s a single house here that doesn’t have tea in it… They’re definitely in a minority.

It’s nice to read a post regarding Tea. My wife and I drink a lot of the brew and one of the things that we were most thankful for when we made the move to Canada was the availability of our favorite tea, Lipton’s Yellow Label. We only buy one brand of milk and that get’s a good laugh from the rest of the family. But it’s Tea. And for us it’s almost religious!!!

I’ve built two sheds in the two summers that we’ve lived in Canada (both builds are detailed in my blog) and next year I will be building a Cabana at the end of the garden for the sole purpose of relaxing with a book and a great cup of tea ‘away’ from the house.

When travelling, we usually carry a stock of our tea bags and call ahead to check if the hotel will provide a kettle in the room….. If not, we just take our own!!!!

One of my favorite excursions to make into The City ( San Francisco of course) is to visit a small family run tea house, Aroma Tea Shop, www. aromateashop.com . They import tea from China and other Asian countries.
Their tea house is not fancy like Teance in Berkeley – http://www.teance.com/ , another teahouse that I enjoy, but it has its charm and the tastings are free, which allows me to explore varieties that I would not normally try and then purchase. ( smart business people !)

I still wake up to a hot cup of Mighty Leaf Tea Jasime and Orange or Earl Grey in the morning and savor a cup of an ‘exotic’ Asian tea in the afternoon.
