I drink a 2 liter of soda, a large cup of coffee (U.S. large

), and a mug of Oolong tea everyday. Caffeine has no effect on me. Sometimes a substitute a liter of the soda for a bunch of alcohol. Sure my kidneys will fail in five years, but that doesn't stop me.

Truthfully if milk was more affordable I would probably substitute all my drinks for it. Milk > all drinks for me.

Come to Finland! We have lots of cows! Price is only about 0,9€/L (If buying finnish milk)

Also another discovery that I found:
Green Tea with Mint & Milk is a pleasant suprise!

ps. the writing that you see above is written by mindflow technique. Yes, it's pretty illogical. Don't be mad ^^

ps2. about effects of caffeine. Sometimes i get tired and sometimes it wokes me up (in most cases option b)

Green tea + sugar + milk == liquid candy.

I rarely drink the stuff. I usually don't like anything in my tea. An exception would be I left it too brew, forgot about it, and don't want to throw it out. In those cases I usually will put either milk or sugar in there, but its extremely rare for me to add both.

I prefer Darjeeling, Earl Grey, and Houjicha for hot teas in both loose and bag types. Also have some powered form ones too for green tea that my best friend had given me but haven't use yet.

I'm not too picky on iced teas and try any thing new I see in the store. Having a sweet tooth so I tend to get sweetened or lemon teas but I have on occasions picked up a bottle of oolong or barley teas. There is only one brand (Ito'en of America) of green tea I can't drink any more, cos it triggers migraines for me. Plus its only their green tea, I can drink the other types of tea they carry.

I have recently shifted away from coffee to tea.

These days I only drink coffee if I'm in a hurry and need the boost, otherwise I have tea all the time.

I'm a 'two bag' tea person, but I'm not into the brewed tea yet, having leaves loose in my tea would freak me out a bit.

By the way, your signature is fucking fantastic.

Morning: Coffee, no milk, no sugar

Afternoon: Earl Grey w/ 2oz. of milk, no sugar.

Night: Celestial Seasonings Sleepy Time extra wellness tea (healthier than sleeping pills)

I haven't had tea with milk... ever. Turns out I can't breakdown lactose. But at least I can smell it... Pretty good.

Nikaido · « **Reply #51 on:** January 20, 2010, 03:50:40 AM »

I have Crohn's Disease, so I have to be careful of how much I drink. That's the only amount of milk I have a day on a regular basis.

Not quite the afternoon, but I'm sipping some nice puer tea I brought back from China last summer.

I also like to relax and enjoy some cold oolong tea in the evening whenever I have a stressful day.

l already PMed him about this, and the reply was nice to read ;]

that sig is really nice indeed, l'm glad hes still working with his skills, even tough he probably has a lot to do with school.

-----
l think tea shouldn't be drank with sugar, but not all ppl can handle the bitter flavor, or other stuff ;]
l hope to get a new flavor soon, l made some orders at the store nearby that deals with all kinds of tea types and that stuff ;]

l also saw the Rozen Maiden style tea cups and tea set, l've been thinking about buying that as a collection, l'm a really big fan of that show ;]

Currently I am drinking Jivraj 9 (loose leaf, Indian that my mom likes and has boxes of). I need to get down to the Russian deli soon to see if they have any good Cylonian tea (since my box is running out). I take mine with milk, no sugar.

I am not a fan of Earl Grey, I find the flavor unpleasant and overwhelming. I don't mind Orange Pekoe and Darjeeling though I find that they do not go well with milk.

I have never had a cup of green tea that I liked. I am too used to black teas (drink about 2-3 large mugs a day) to notice the taste.

Havoc10K · « **Reply #55 on:** January 21, 2010, 06:28:26 AM »

2-3 large mugs ?
mine is 0.5 liter ;] l can just gulp down at leat 5-6 tea times a day, l like Earl Grey cuz it tastes good for me, l don't mind other tea's since the flavor really depends on how you make it, l don't add milk to my tea, for some reason it didn't taste any good to me.

l'm currently looking for a tea set looking exactly like the one in Rozen Maiden, but it's damn expansive -_-

I'm gonna have to learn how to make some tea. I don't know how to make some, yet.

Anyone else not like black tea? I can do earl grey because of the Cardamon flavor but plain black tea I don't like.

I love my green, mint, ginger, jasmine green, chamomile, oolong, vanilla chai, and white. Ginger or mint are excellent after meals. A neighbor of mine got us some loose leaf green from her trip to China, stuff is awesome. Green somehow feels great after training so I tend to have some with my post workout meal.

Since I'm unemployed, every day for the past 10 months or so has been a cup of tea at 3pm and some anime. Epic relaxation.

It can be but it mostly sucks. No income = no fun.
