    Just having my first ever cup of camomile tea. Unusual tasting stuff. It's not unpleasant but it tastes unlike anything I've ever tasted before.

    Are there any other teas that are healthy and taste nice that people could recommend? Was thinking green tea or Earl Grey might be next on the experiment list.

    I just started drinking green tea this week after never drinking tea or coffee all my life. I need to force myself to drink it, hoping i get used to it and acquire a taste for it

    I've drank green tea for years. Lovely.


    Last week I bought lemon green tea and didn't realise. But after a cup or two it was no bad:smiley-laughing002:

    I only drink tea to dunk chocolate digestives in. I don't think any of these healthy/fancy teas would be any good for that.

    Mmm tea n chocolate, nothing beats it:35:

    A love chocolate digestives, there £1:80 or something for McVities out of the shop... * that!

    Head on down to Lidl's or Aldi's and buy the exact same biscuits but with a different brand name(Towergate) for 59p. Bargain:smiley-laughing002:

    I dont drink normal tea but green tea just tastes how i imagine ordinary tea to taste, if that makes sense.

    Earl Grey and Chai (quality is dicey, though) are the only thing I drink other than black tea. I want to like green teas and fruity ones, but they're always too weak and disappointing.

    Green tea with a teaspoon of honey. Lovely.

    I don't drink caffeine so I'm buzzing out my * after a mug of it :56:

    Green tea tastes like hot water with a slight hint of...something. I certainly don't like it, it's far too weak for my liking.

    I prefer a nice cup of earl grey, a dash of milk and you're good to go.

    Asda do a great jasmine and green tea combo. Lovely reminds me of Asian bubble tea.

    After I quit drinking coffee (drank way too much and it affected my health), I started drinking tea (much healthier and no bad side effects as with coffee). I mostly drink green tea or mint tea (Lipton got a mint tea called Alps Breeze and it is amazing).

    Been hooked on green tea lately. Love it with some honey in it.
    Something a bit earthy about it without the honey.
