Tea drinkers
We all know the first brew of the day has to be a traditional tea but do you drink other teas during the day?
I enjoy an Oolong a nice Assam and a green tea and jasmine pearls.
I have just brewed an Oolong now
Have you got any recommendations? |

"I don't often drink caffeine but I do like the occasional chai tea. Then peppermint or lemon and ginger in the evenings.
Lemon and ginger good for inflammation
My ego CAN get a bit large  "
Made me giggle |

"I mainly drink English Breakfast - gallons of the stuff throughout the average day. Teapigs do some lovely herbal teas though, rhubarb & ginger and chamomile flowers are my favourites. "
There are some brilliant specialty teas out there now |

Rooibos. Or a berries tea. I quite like the Teapigs range - the spiced red berries is perfect at this time of year or the apple and cinnamon one.
I've started drinking green tea but it's not great. Hoping I grow to love it! |

Try green tea and jasmine pearls not as harsh |

Ah I might give that a go. A dear friend has been extolling the virtues of matcha but I don't think I can face it. |

"Any herbal tea with a spoonful of 420 infused honey does wonders for inflammation
CBD or 420?"
CBD will work but 420 tends to be better as it has psychoactive compounds which help alleviate the pain that comes with inflammation. I’m a chemist and spent 3 years in pharmacology studying the effects of THC & CBD and the mechanisms in which they are involved within the body |

A Ceylon orange pekoe (large leaf) is my usual morning brew.
Love a Ceylon Darjeeling blend too. It's a very refreshing combination.
At work, i'll often have a Sencha or Gyokuro green tea. Matcha is too much of a PITA the arse to make at work. |

D'oh! I forgot about Rooibos!
Yeah, I have that (or Marmite) when I want a hot drink but no caffeine. |

Green tea with a little lemon or mint - That's how I started out |
