I can't find it around here. I'll have to see if I can buy it online. It's hard to find ANY kind of bulk tea around here.

Maybe I'll get some vegemite too as a joke. Have you ever tried that stuff? My wife's grandmother would spread that cr@p on toast and raved about it. I tried it and it made me want to dry heave.

I never tried vegemite. It sounds like it might give a person the screaming green apple quickstep.

LOL I think it would have, but I couldn't get past a small taste.


Speaking of taste ... this post has only the bad variety.

... OK back to the tea.

The darling wifey and I go through probably half a gallon a day of a mixture of white, green, and peach tea.

Steep the white & green (two bags each, all decaf) for ~ four minutes, leave the peach (also two bags) in the pitcher.

Stick it in the fridge most evenings, by bed time the next night it's gone. Lather, rinse, and repeat.

When it be cold, well, there is a whole slew of stuff we enjoy. We go through a pretty substantial amount of earl gray (the more bergamot the better), red roobois, Red Zinger (Celestial Seasonings), an Egyptian licorice (brand escapes me at the moment), and a wide variety of chai blends.

I like iced tea as well. Since I'm from Georgia, I tend to like it sweet. I did some training at Fort Lewis in Washington state over the weekend, and was surprised to find sweet iced tea available at the restaraunt/bar just off base-Galloping Gertie's if anyone cares.

I also just tried the Stash brand chai that I picked up at Smith's the other day. Not bad at all.
