    I almost always drink tea only when I'm sick, which is rare.  Every now and then I do like a cup of peach tea, though.

    Me too L. In fact when I was a kid and feeling kinda crappy my mom would fix something she called "Cambric Tea". It was tea with sugar and milk. It sounds yucky but it really tasted good. And then she give me some lightly toasted WHITE BREAD that she had buttered and poured a little warm milk over to soften. That too doesn't sound so appetizing but it always tasted so good! Thank you for your reply. Jim is the tea drinker and we recently found out the best way to make tea. Heat water and teabag in a mug for 5 minutes in the microwaves and then cover it and let it steep for 30 minutes! We tried it and that's what we do now. It takes that long for the flavor to be released! :)

    Funny, your mom and mine did the same thing only mine didn't pour milk over the toast.  I don't care for my tea with milk, but i do like it with honey or sugar.  I like tea strong when I do drink it, though.  Happy New Year. :)

    No!  Yuck!  That stuff is nothing more that weakly flavored dirty water (much like what comes out of the tap after it rains).

    Jim is the tea drinker Shuhak. But we recently read that we have been doing it all wrong. Here's what we do now. Fill a mug with water and place the teabag in it (no metal on the teabag..only string). Heat for 5 minutes. Then remove it from the microwave, place it on a coffee warmer, cover it and steep it for 30 minutes! That releases the flavor. I like it much better but not better enough to be a regular drinker. Thank you for your reply! :)
