My taste includes to Souchong, but a a cup of Earl Grey can be very
pleasant indeed. I prefer no sugar, just milk, not cream.
We have a new restaurant here that offers Earl Grey as the house tea.

Personally, give me a nice cup of good, strong, Earl Grey... with just a
touch of _dark brown_ sugar... it gets rid of the acid-y taste without
adding nearly so much of a sweet flavor. Just don't let the water get
*cold* with the tea-bag still in - it will get a lot more bitter. Haven't
tested 'em all, but Bigelow is my preferred brand.
And now back to our regularly scheduled listserv. :-)

Recycling is good, right??? Ok, so I'll recycle an old .sig.

I fear if I stopped drinking tea, I would vitiate
the economies of Ceylon
and India.
Oh, you drink _real_ tea, no Lipton? I'm slowly trying to stop myself from
using that trash, but it's so darn _convenient_!
