A question of tea's
« on: February 18, 2008, 05:08:39 PM »

What would a golf forum be without some kind of question regarding tea's.  Wink

I am trying to get a little healthier, trying to incorporate more green and white teas (anti-oxidants) into my repertoire.  Yuck

But I'm slowly getting used to it.

Any suggestions? I've got some Lipton I'm working through but it tastes like chalk sometimes, I'm trying a smidge of milk and splenda and it helps a bit. I found some white tea that had mango or peach which wasn't too bad. I haven't bought whole leaf in awhile, not working near Pike Place Market has really put a cramp in my tea/coffee buying style. Fred Meyer kinda sux for teas.

I'm open for idears.

Firstly, one should not add milk or sugar to one's tea.

English Breakfast tea is a good starting point.

Then you may want to try:

Indian teas such as: Darjeeling Tea

Sri Lankan: Ceylon (Black Tea)

Chinese: Jasmine Tea

or from Korea: Corn Tea (this stuff rocks!)

Thanks for the response, and why to the above?

Mostly because it dilutes the flavour of the tea, which is a personal preferance really, and possibly a legacy from the British.

However, I'm sure you've checked out this general page at wiki:

I know.  Sad

My city has a really large Asian community, I think I'm going "in search of" herbs and teas tomorrow.

[no help here]

The only tea I'm familiar with is the kind that gets made here at work when these old Scandinavian broads *fudge* up a pot of Foldger's.  I have to pour the see through *feces* out, and make a batch of Cowboy Coffee.
