Tea Discussion Thread

[Halcyonis]

I've found the greatest debate is 'do you take milk?'

Some think it desecrates the sacred nature of tea, while others couldn't have tea without it.

NO MILK FOR ME. EVER. Except in chai, then its a necessity.

That's very true. My father is of the latter opinion, while my mother and I swear by the former. My mother only drinks very weak tea, however, while I let it stew.

F E L L A S:

Cannabis tea is a thing.

Who’s trying to chill and talk tea stoned with me

Cannabis tea is alright, definitely gets you feeling pretty mellow. Nothing special, tbh.

I'm more of a coffee guy myself. Truth be told, when it comes to tea, I generally only drink Teajava's Black Tea, simply because it's cheap, easy to pop in the fridge, and the taste is pretty damn good. But, as someone with a ludicrously busy schedule, I find myself making several cups of coffee a day in part because I prefer the taste - but also because caffeine is a necessity for me throughout any given day. Keurigs are life savers, folks.

Lapsang Souchong and Earl Gray, black. And only if there's no coffee. Coffee flavored coffee.

Green tea = best tea

Green is pretty amazing.

Throw all the tea into the harbor (as a American I am required to do that sorry)

Is there like some amendment about that? I think it was after the one that says you have to eat at McDonalds every week or be fined. Anyway...
Tea is fine, especially sweet tea. That's better than all other kinds, if you disagree...

Sweet teas can be nice, but it's a balancing act between sweetening the tea and tea-ening the sweet. I, thus, generally prefer the natural tea flavour, but I know plenty who would disagree.

What if I want to drink both coffee and tea at the same time? YUENYEUNG GANG

Keurigs are also planet-killers. I just make a pot of coffee, keep it in the fridge, and drink iced coffee all day (even in the winter). I do use the Keurig at work because it's either that or instant coffee though, and no one should be forced to drink that.

Oh, and Arizona iced green tea of course because I’m a sad boy on a budget

omg same

[The Black Party]

My high school's canteen stopped selling tea this year, and replaced it all with bland coffee flavours. Is this moral grounds to riot or no?

Yes, yes this is.

[Freezic Vast]

I honestly should try tea tbh.

[Grand Unity of the Righteous Nation Cele]

Green tea, without milk, without honey, without sugar.

[Autarkheia]

Green tea with milk sounds both like an abomination, and oddly good.

[-Ocelot-]

Because I can't have tea without sugar or artificial flavor. I have no problem with drinking 100% robusta coffee black (no sugar/milk), yet I can't stomach tea. Maybe I should be buying tea of a higher quality instead, idk.

Black tea is usually the way to go for me because it has the most caffeine, but, in any case I must add something in it to enjoy it.

Smart man. Im going to be honest, I dont drink tea like its milk or water but if i did have to pick, i'd would have to be Sweat Tea. Its pretty good
Still doesnt beat Coffee in my opinion

[Infected Mushroom]

The glorious victory of Team Tea against the oppressive Coffee Cabal has shown the tenacity and triumph of the cause of tea drinkers everywhere. It is completely obvious that the deserving beverage has won and has shown its great quality.

However, this is not the end for Team Tea. There is still much to discuss about the very nature of teas, from how one likes their tea, to what kinds of teas are the best, to the age-old question of milk or water first. But do not despair, tea drinkers of NationStates, for this thread shall not be a place of prejudice against even the most backwards and evil tea drinkers of this grand community.

So come with me, and come with tea, and we discuss the drink that began wars and ended them, that forced empires to expand for love of it, and which is enjoyed by people everywhere as the most majestic of drinks.

GREEN TEA!

I want to drink green tea right now!

[Washington Resistance Army]

Tea is disgusting and the favored drink of imperialist warmongers.

By the logic you propose there, any drink ever enjoyed by an evil person is just as bad as them. That is incredibly fallacious.

[Heloin]

I don't care for tea most of the time, kinda just bitter water. I really like sweet tea though.

[Internationalist Bastard]

Gunpowder tea, oolong, 150 degrees farenheit. Two squirts of lemon
