Do Brits really drink a lot of tea?

Post by **l0g1c** » Fri Mar 10, 2006 11:38 pm

Or is that an outdated stereotype? I was wondering, since I'm enjoying a cup of "English Breakfast." Should I be looking for some sort of authentic "English" tea?

English or otherwise, what kinds of tea would you all recommend?

I don't drink coffee at all just tea (I don't mind coffee, but prefer tea).

And you want some PG.

I wouldn't say it's an outdated stereotype, there are tons of brits still drinking tea. I drink more coffee than tea, but I do like a cup of tea now and then. I just buy anything in a teabag as far as regular tea, not fussed about what brand. More exotic teas which I like are Lapsang Souchong which has a smoked flavour and Earl Grey. If you want authentic, good quality british tea, buy something like pg tips or tetleys, and /or do it in a strainer as opposed to tea bags.

Thanks fellas, I'll try some of your recommendations. I'm weaning myself off of soda, so I'm going through tea at an alarming rate.

Again, thanks. :icon14:

PG FUCKING TIPS, none of that Earl Grey bollocks. My girlfriend drinks Earl Grey, and I shag her. So therefore if you like getting shagged by men, you should defintely definitely have some Earl Grey, if not then shut up and drink your fucking PG fucking Tips and sit down and shut the fuck up and sit down.
