my favorite place to get tea is at a Teavana - they sell it loose there. They have a website, too.

Brewed licorice is nice. You can get the bark at an herbalist shop for $1,00 an ounce, and make it yourself. Cheap, easy and delicious!



must remind myself to check that out.

does anyone else know any place that sells loose leaf tea for cheap ? I live in west coast canada, and all i can find are adorable but pricey tea shops ;(

    I have a cupboard full of different flavoured teas. Right now my favourite is Green tea with Mango and Lychee.
    I picked it up from Sainsburys about a week ago, you should try it!

    Ooh that sounds delicious! i absolutely love mango but never really eat lychees because they remind me of eyeballs xD but in a tea i'm sure it would be delicious.

    Haha I'm going to be broke from buying all these new different teas ;) Totally worth it though.

    Hehe! I love them too and I'd drink it often if it weren't for the news that said bubble tea's milk is not good for health. The "balls" are called pearls and my friends and I used to shoot them at each other through the straw...... good times. xD

    Uwaaa, you have no idea how much I want to try milk/bubble tea!! They look super tasty~ :3


    Heh! It's everywhere in Singapore/ Taiwan/ Hong Kong. Not sure about the other asian countries. :x But there must be some available in UK somewhere? :o

    I never understood the fascination with all these fancy flavoured teas, if you're going to drink tea shouldn't it taste like tea? O_o

    Flavoured teas are still teas.... when the flavour and tea fragrance balances out it's really good. :p

    I had forgotten about the 'pearls' thing. Oops. What's up with the not good for your health? I want to shoot pearls at someone now.

    At Teavana, the Youthberry mix is to die for. You haven't lived until you've tried it.
    While that is my favorite, I used to drink Moroccan Mint tea because of my everyday morning nausea. It really helped :)

    Seriously with the necro-spam!


    What's hilarious is that out of their 12 posts so far, only one of them was made in a forum that increases post count :p

    Maybe they aren't doing it for the posts, and they're genuinely interested in participating. Hmmm

    Their post wasn't spam, and the thread is less than a month old. If you don't want to see someone's posts, ignore them.
