| | | | Samurai Chai it's available at Teavana. They have other blends, and will custom blend dry teas at your request. A word of warning though, once you get your pallet used to the high quality of these teas, going back to Lipton, Tetley, and such is difficult.
I also like Earl Grey, I like Twining's version of it best.

Youthberry Wild Orange Blossom and Lavender Dreams were always my favorites. Also really enjoy celestial seasonings Mint Magic tea(the one with the wizard on the box). |

Youthberry Wild Orange Blossom, that's the one. It's really good hot or cold, though I prefer cold.

Anything black and strong, really. |

Yet, I have to say that my favorites are the ones my mom brews. These are made with plain jane dried tea leaves, a generous dose of milk, a little sugar and, most importantly, a variety of authentic Indian spices - my favorites being ginger, cinnamon, cardamom, clove, mint, sweet basil and random combinations of these

Tetley, PG Tips or Yorkshire teabag thrown in a mug whilst on the hoof at work.
Splash of milk, no sugar....commonly known as a 'dockers brew'. |
