Can your recommend any Good Tea's or Cofee's?

I was cleaning out this extra shelf in my kitchen earlier today that has nothing but old grocery store bags that I use as trash bags for my bathrooms cause its getting a bit chilly here and I wanted to have a place in my kitchen for nothing but cofee and tea. I just got back from Cofee Bean & Tea Leaf Co. and bought an orange ginger tea and some columbian joe. I want to stock up later on tonight and tommorow so I need recommendations before I go shopping.

nod I used to drink that a lot when I was a little girl. Sleepytime tea by Celestial Seasonings is one of my faves too and Chamomile is good...but, if you want a hardcore treat go for a good chai drool

ginger tea
but shit, don't bore yourself with the bagged kind. buy yourself a few stalks of ginger roots, you peel the skin, let them sit in water for a bit, like 20 minutes, then you crush them (works well in a garlic crusher) and boil all of it for a good long while, make it real strong... then put a slice of lemon in it and you got yourself a nice brew of ginger tea biggrin

you can do almost the same with cocoa beans, my dad makes a mean chocolate tea


as for the bagged type, green tea, gingerpeach(i LOVE ginger anything), cinnamon tea, lemon tea, chamomile, chai

i have all of those in my dorm room right now, and i think i might make myself a nice cup-o-tea cool


to add: lemon grass tea, and sorill tea (jamaican, and i can never spell it!)

I'm a big fan of Earl Grey, and we have some Plantation Mint around here which is lovely from time to time. All the Celestial Seasonings brand seems good so far. I've not found one I didn't like. I think the green tea and chamomile is my favorite.
This one's for you.

Most grocery stores sell it, Borders bookstores also carry it, or you may even have a Seattle's Best coffee store in your area.

Yessiree. I live on yerba mate. Its good for increasing your energy level, boosts your immune system, its very rich in antioxidants and tastes really good. It energizes your whole body. If you arent able to find it in bulk, Guayaki has a 1/2 lb bag that lasts for ages. Be sure to pick up a tea ball, or a pack of sleeves, because its loose tea.

We made a hug pot of ginger tea this weekend. I peeled and sliced the stalks nd let them boil for a couple of hours. I think I'll try crushing them next time, though. I'd never thought of that.

funny you should ask...I just tried a new coffee that is about to break into the market - it's better than Starbucks and that is all I will drink anymore. their web site is www.traderrickscoffee.com.

If anyone tries any of their different flavors let me know..I tried the french roast.

YUM!!!!! I haven't had that in ages! (more like 2 months lol ) I love the honey dew variety.


I also love homemade Masala Chai. It takes an hour to make, but it's so worth it.
