Any tea drinkers here?

I've been drinking quite a few teas lately... mostly varieties of green and white teas. What teas do you drink? Any recommendations for getting into tea drinking a bit more?

Home brewed Lipton, or Trader Joes.

The green&white at TJ's is good, but doesn't have a real strong tea flavor. But it is very refreshing.

I like black teas like Russian caravan or Russian gold. Green tea tastes like water from a can of green beans to me.

Green tea is a favorite of mine. Super strong with nothing in it, even better if there is sushi involved.

Never really been much of a tea drinker, but I do enjoy the kind of tea served at Chinese restaurants around here. I have no idea what kind it is. Google suggest it's Jasmine tea.

Friggin' love tea. My personal favourite is Earl Grey, but I've found that the flavour can vary greatly from brand to brand. I'll really drink any tea, though.

I wouldn't survive without my green tea and sweet tea. I don't get people who drink their tea unsweet.

I drink sweeter brews, but don't sweeten anything. I see people drink the same stuff I do with 2-3 packs of Splenda... I don't get THAT.

Heh...I'm one of those people. Around here, we have these fried chicken places that sell sweet tea...must be 2 lbs of sugar in each vat. I feel my pancreas dying a little as I drink it down.

I drink a 24 oz cup of Numi Gunpowder Green Tea daily since I decided to cut out coffee.

Right here, I mostly have my tea white with no sugar. Anyone here agree it's an acquired taste? I would suggest starting basic and slowly moving on to the more exotic stuff.

I can't stand coffee though, bleugh!
