I started drinking hot teas when I started my diet 3 1/2 weeks ago. I think I'm addicted now. ![]() My favorites are Celestial Seasonings Chocolate Caramel Enchantment Chai tea and Lipton's Orange Passionfruit Jasmine green tea. Anyone have any favorite brands or flavors I'm missing out on? |

I am very fond of Earl Grey or Lapsang Suchong - the charcoal burners delight! There is a really nice grapefruit tea by twinnings - it was about all I drank when I gave up tea and coffee.

I need to check out that Chocolate caramel tea. Sounds wonderful.. I drink Lipton Orange and Spice for breakfast every morning. I don't usually try anything else. I may have to branch out! |

Give me just plain tea or just plain coffee. None of the fancy stuff. I like Earl Grey tea. Strong. Nothing in it. I do like half and half in my coffee but black is good too. Dorothy |

I have been drinking special teas since 1985; I've tried most of the flavors from Celestial Seasonings but switched to Health and Heather's cammomile. About five years ago I received a large packet of loose special green tea and have used that consistently ever since ; it has recently finished and I now have Biglow green tea most days. I occasionally use regular Earl Grey or Liptons, which I've never stopped loving:however too much of those tend to make my heart skip a beat . Since drinking the green tea constantly, I have lost some twelve pounds; I think perhaps that the tea caused it. I am glad about that. ![]() Trini. |

It's been about 3 years that I have stopped drinking the regular black tea and only drink it when I am at someone else's house. At home I drink Tetley's green tea - sometimes even their decaffinated green tea. But at work I like to have Cranberry tea - either Celestial Seasonings or Tetley. I used to drink Raspberry tea and it's OK but I now prefer the Cranberry. ![]() TTFN from

If I am craving something sweet I will make up a cup of the chai tea. I am more of a coffee drinker than tea, but at night I have been drinking the sleeptime tea. It say it is to calm you, but so far I do not feel any calmer.

One of the men I used to work with on graveyards would make me a cup of traditional East Indian chai tea every night. It was wonderful. I'm a coffee or tea person, not much for the flavored teas, except BlackCurrant. I do like Earl Grey now and then, and Chai. I find I can't drink Chamomille before bed cause I'm up two or three times to.....get rid of some of the liquid if you know what I mean!

I usually try to stay away from caffeine, but I've found love in Mighty Leaf Tea (http://www.mightyleaf.com/) brand's "Orange Dulce." It's a black tea with the tastes of orange and vanilla and jasmine all swirled together. It's expensive, but so nice. This audience will appreciate this: You can get loose tea from them, but this one in particular is in tea bags made of silk organza, with a serged closure. The serger tail is what the little tab is attached to for dunking. It makes me feel very special when I have it as a treat!
