I love Earl Grey tea, but i've yet to find a brand that I like. Just curious as to what your preference is.

I drink a lot of Green Tea (plain old, regular caffeinated Green Tea) from Trader Joes. I also drink a lot of Yerba Mate - not technically a tea, but close.

isn't this the tea that stimulates your adrenal glands to produce more adrenaline?

I understand what "the rocks" are. I just don't understand how it's a tea.

Twinings makes a fairly acceptable earl grey.
Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf's earl grey isn't too bad either.
Stay away from Fortnum & Mason.. it tastes like donkey jizz. Not that I'd know what it tastes like. Honest.

I like many different teas.. Earl Grey coming in the lead, especially good with some cream and sugar.
Asian teas are good too - Jasmine, Hoji-cha, Genmai-cha, oolong, and on a hot summer's day, iced mugi-cha (barley tea).

I honestly don't know. It's reputed as being one of the healthiest concoctions to drink right now; if you like the taste, it's wonderful. Provides a similar "up" to coffee/caffeine, without all the edginess, and it isn't habituating.

Green Tea and Earl Grey are both good.

But I actually drink more Iced Tea than Hot Tea. For Iced Tea, I generally use English Breakfast Tea or Rose Red, though many different kinds of tea work for Iced Tea.

Information: http://www.noborders.net/mate/

I get mine from Whole Foods Market. $13.99/lb, which for tea isn't too steep (no pun intended).
