Good loose-leaf beats teabags any day, and you rarely find the good stuff in supermarkets. I’m usually drinking some kind of rooibos-chai-mix, though. Teabags are fine for that.
Lipton tea bags are the only cost-effective way to reproduce the flavour of cheap milk tea purchased on the streets of Yau Ma Tei in Hong Kong.
Look at this fat cat here that can afford street drugs in Hong Kong
I bet he throws the tea bag in the trash after one cup
Why waste a perfectly good tea bag when you can wear it?
Wearing is caring…
Loose-leaf Pu Er from the Asian grocery is pretty excellent.
I remember loving it when I was a kid. Now it just tastes diluted
This is the way.
Fair play to Barry’s as well imo.
I can’t tell the difference between this and the gold blend, but this is the way.
I find that steeping gold blend for a minute is about the same as proper strong for 3 minutes
You gotta do 4 minutes and change with three of these bags. That spoon needs to stand up straight in the cup after stirring
Spiffingbrit is that you?
I prefer the Nifftea sponsored solution.

Perfectly balanced, as all tea should be.
It’s good for iced tea. Don’t waste real tea when it’s cold and had less taste
Also kombucha.
I’ve always liked Red Rose, hot or iced. It works especially well as a cold brew with just a twist of lemon, no sugar.
I like lipton.

I’ve always been a Starbucks chai tea latte guy (don’t shoot me, please), so when I went to Turkey I was super excited to try their chai. The real thing, right?!?! I was surprised to see the locals whip out Lipton. Everywhere it was offered, it was just Lipton. Not spiced or anything special other than they always drank it. Breakfast? Dinner? Tea time in the middle of the day? Sure.
Then why are you drinking it, Kermit?
The economy…
We would double the bags and sweeten it until it wasn’t recognizable as tea anymore. That’s generally the way it happens in the deep South of the U.S. Tea quality doesn’t matter after enough sugar.
The only Kermit drinking tea I will upvote.
I like to make tea from this, no idea how it’s called in English
Is that lavender?
Lavender is more bushy, pale silvery leaves, and looks a bit more like rosemary.
Thyme? Looks like a creeping thyme.
apparently it’s wild thyme… or mothers soul if I do literal translation :D
