You could banish us to the "General Chit Chat" section, but you know what they say: It's not wise to upset a tea drinker! We're fierce man... we'll cut ya and sprinkle Sugar In The Raw in the wounds. I don't think you want any of that. Back to tea though... Just tried Peach Green Tea tonight. Not so phenomenal...tasted a bit weak. Perhaps with more leaves it could have been good.

afrdzak Posted January 17, 2007 Share Posted January 17, 2007 just get any decent persian black (earl grey) tea, brew it properly and put a few leaves of fresh mint leaves. Match that with hookah and you'll be in heaven. Another thing to do is to put some almond on the bottom of the pot while brewing. I heard this adds a very nice and unique after taste.

Sonthert Posted January 18, 2007 Share Posted January 18, 2007 If you need mint leaves, but can't find them, look in a Chinese, Vietnamese or Indochinese grocery store. Alternatively, go to one of those restaurants. I frequently jack mint leaves left over from Vienamese meals to use to make mint julips or put in tea. Arab stores sometimes have them, but they tend not to be as fresh or as tasty. I love mint in tea, too, man. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tingjunkie Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 OK. Got a new fav I think...Jasmine Yin Hao from SpecialTeas. Out-freakin-standing. It's silvertips with the scent of Jasmine. I had it along with chinese food, and WOW! That's all I can say... just wow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cafesaden Posted January 31, 2007 Share Posted January 31, 2007 (edited) everyone that's into teacheck out Adagio Teathis is where I have been purchasing my tea from for years now.this is my favorite combo right hereCITRON GREEN TEA with a bowl of 80% raspberry and 20% lemon.good stuff, maybe the health benefits from drinking tea while smoking tobacco contradicts itself.wouldn't that be neat on a regular basis though, almost every bowl that I smoke, I am always drinking CHAI hot or iced. when i have a lot of company over I always brew up a pot of tea though. still have TONS of loose leaf tea that I hand picked in China at a tea factory. im scared to drink it because its so good and I am probably not going to be able to afford going back there for quite some time now! lol Edited January 31, 2007 by cafesaden Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gib Posted February 2, 2007 Share Posted February 2, 2007 Its a waste if you're not going to drink it.
