Any fruit or flavoured tea drinkers ?

Not sure they are fruit teas? Roselle is hibiscus and lotus is, well, lotus flower.

Ok let's call them flavoured tea's then

Lots of them smell lovely but actually taste of nothing in my opinion. You need to keep the t-bag in the mug to get any flavour.

I've had some with liquorice which I liked. I get tempted & buy them and end up drinking my PG Tips as usual.

I’ve tried a few herbal teas but don’t particularly like them apart from mint.

I like Lidls range of teas, the Ginger is quite tangy. They do a Green and a Camoline one that is good too.

I don't drink caffeine so have tried a few.

Rooibos is my favorite, especially the Earl Gray flavour which is my "daily".
I hate the berry flavored teas. Ginger and lemon is ok but I prefer a knob of fresh ginger to the actual bags, and it's cheaper.

I dislike camomile. I also dislike mint tea (despite being a lover of fresh mint).

Green tea I tried a few years ago and it tasted like compost, but also made me feel very queer. Maybe it had caffeine in.

I also like decaf normal tea but if course that's not flavoured.

I like them and generally have a box or two of flavoured/fruit teas in the house or in my work bag. I am not a big fan of milk because it makes me feel bloated and horrible. I only drink coffee in the mornings or I don’t sleep. I like the fruity/flavoured teas as they are hot and taste nice. I also drink water but there is something about a hot drink that helps me though my working day.

Green tea I tried

Not a fruit tea

Yep another 'green tea' drinker here, not a 'fruit tea' but the the leaves are not as processed as 'Indian tea' is

I'm betting that you'll never finish that box. You'll have one, maybe two then put it in the cupboard and throw it out in 2029 when you refurbish your kitchen. There's a reason god gave us (real) coffee and tea.

Not at this end of the Bristol Suburbs. Lidl Gold is the best we drink round here

 

[NorthernSky]

in my quest to be caffeine free i've moved to these types of drink. mainly Twinings and the like
i have Peppermint and Ginger ones at the moment. i enjoy trying the different flavours
