Spiffing brit is that you?

[–] Senseless@feddit.org 3 points 1 month ago

I prefer the Nifftea sponsored solution.

[–] rickyrigatoni@lemm.ee 6 points 1 month ago

Perfectly balanced, as all tea should be.

[–] klemptor@startrek.website 6 points 1 month ago

I'm a yorkshire gold lady myself

[–] funkless_eck@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Fair play to Barry's as well imo.

[–] Luvs2Spuj@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

Yorkshire has a cult following (for good reason), but Barry's is on the same level.

[–] massive_bereavement@fedia.io 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I can't tell the difference between this and the gold blend, but this is the way.

[–] garibaldi_biscuit@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I find that steeping gold blend for a minute is about the same as proper strong for 3 minutes

[–] Chef_Boyargee@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago)

You gotta do 4 minutes and change with three of these bags. That spoon needs to stand up straight in the cup after stirring

[–] rumschlumpel@feddit.org 20 points 1 month ago (2 children)

Good loose-leaf beats teabags any day, and you rarely find the good stuff in supermarkets. I'm usually drinking some kind of rooibos-chai-mix, though. Teabags are fine for that.

[–] NateNate60@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Lipton tea bags are the only cost-effective way to reproduce the flavour of cheap milk tea purchased on the streets of Yau Ma Tei in Hong Kong.

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Look at this fat cat here that can afford street drugs in Hong Kong

[–] Fester@lemm.ee 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I bet he throws the tea bag in the trash after one cup

[–] over_clox@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Why waste a perfectly good tea bag when you can wear it?

Wearing is caring..

[–] GraniteM@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

Loose-leaf Pu Er from the Asian grocery is pretty excellent.

[–] brlemworld@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I think it's the best selling tea in the US?

[–] qbus@lemmy.world 14 points 1 month ago (1 children)

It's good for iced tea. Don't waste real tea when it's cold and had less taste

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Also kombucha.

I like the Costco version of this. It's the only matcha I like.

[–] WereCat@lemmy.world 7 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (2 children)

I like to make tea from this, no idea how it's called in English

[–] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Thyme? Looks like a creeping thyme.

[–] WereCat@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

apparently it's wild thyme... or mothers soul if I do literal translation :D

Lavender is more bushy, pale silvery leaves, and looks a bit more like rosemary.

[–] somewhiteguy@infosec.pub 6 points 1 month ago

We would double the bags and sweeten it until it wasn't recognizable as tea anymore. That's generally the way it happens in the deep South of the U.S. Tea quality doesn't matter after enough sugar.

[–] son_named_bort@lemmy.world 4 points 1 month ago (1 children)

Then why are you drinking it, Kermit?

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 10 points 1 month ago

The economy...

[–] gnomesaiyan@lemmy.world 3 points 1 month ago

I've always liked Red Rose, hot or iced. It works especially well as a cold brew with just a twist of lemon, no sugar.

[–] pewpew@feddit.it 3 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I remember loving it when I was a kid. Now it just tastes diluted

[–] ByteOnBikes@slrpnk.net 1 points 1 month ago

I thought it was just me!

I remember enjoying it as a kid but now it tastes weird.

[–] NJSpradlin@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago (1 children)

I’ve always been a Starbucks chai tea latte guy (don’t shoot me, please), so when I went to Turkey I was super excited to try their chai. The real thing, right?!?! I was surprised to see the locals whip out Lipton. Everywhere it was offered, it was just Lipton. Not spiced or anything special other than they always drank it. Breakfast? Dinner? Tea time in the middle of the day? Sure.

[–] OmegaLemmy@discuss.online 1 points 1 month ago

A lot of us don't use bagged tea but dried leaves whilst brewing, but I for sure drink a lot of Lipton

[–] pigup@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Tetley master race

[–] Smoogs@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

The only Kermit drinking tea I will upvote.

[–] glorkon@lemmy.world 1 points 1 month ago

I kinda like TWG Tea 1837.

[–] Flax_vert@feddit.uk 1 points 1 month ago

Don't they just make iced tea?
