I love Earl grey, particularly in winter time - accompanied by marmite on toast and death cab for cutie.
Recently, I've been drinking peppermint tea (it's not really tea) and it's quite refreshing.
Redbush is also good. Yum. Though a lot of people seem to think it tastes like 'dentists mouth wash'
- tell me more about this 'red bush' you like to enjoy each morning...madirish

@madirish, what do you use with the loose-leaf tea? a metal strainer thing? I got given some loose-leaf tea recently, and haven't used it because I don't know what to do with it. I'm guessing there's some kind of metal teabag I can reuse ;p
- exactly- metal tea bag is it... for individual cups, that is. otherwise, place in tea pot as pour threw sieve into cup.madirish

*splutters* Mojo - You're British and you're asking what you do with loose leaf tea?! I'll trust that you're more of a coffee person, otherwise my world view's just been shattered!
For one cup..

@detritus: I've been quite americanised and lazified by living in NZ for 5 years. When I came back to Britain 6 years ago, it was just as americanised and lazified.
In short: The americans did it. ;P
