  1. I drink decaffeinated Celestial Seasons herb tea. I like it hot or as iced tea, no sugar.

    I usually buy Twinings. Either English Breakfast or Lady Grey. Very rarely do I add sugar.

    Oops And how do I like it... I like it when I drink it, hot not cold, unless it is ice tea, then with ice cubes and sugar, perhaps a lemon

    I like green tea with ginseng and lemon. And it's gotta have sugar or there's little point in it.

    I can't say because I don't really drink tea. But my best guess is that I'd like strong tea in the morning, and weak tea any time after, oh... 14:00.

    If there's a flavor, it's probably Earl Grey...

    What kind of TEA are you talking about??? The kind you DRINK, or the kind you SMOKE??? THE BEATNIK'S (1950'S / EARLY 1960'S) smoked "TEA" (SLANG FOR: REEFER) and they probably drank the conventional beverage TEA, as well!!! REMEMBER that classic movie; "REEFER MADNESS" (1936) - BUDGET: $100,000 ($1,843,000 / 2019 US$) Is the TEA, for THEE???

    AT WORK: I drink BOTTLED TEA (LIKE "ARIZONA", "SNAPPLE", "PURE LEAF", "GOLD PEAK" and "HONEST TEA" ICED TEAS). AT HOME: I usually drink ICED TEA year round, with NATURAL, ORGANIC SUGAR as a sweetener, or i just add 100% FRUIT JUICE OR LEMONADE OR LIMEAID, as a SWEETENER and a FLAVOR agent (25% MIX / RATIO). IN WINTER: I may MIX IT UP and drink some HOT TEA, with HONEY or ORGANIC, NATURAL SUGAR as a SWEETENER. I DRINK / USE ALL 3 TYPES OF TEA: BLACK, WHITE and GREEN. BRANDS CAN VARY - LIPTON, TETLEY, RED ROSE, ETC.

    HOW DOES THE BAND: "THREE DOG NIGHT" LIKE THEIR "TEA"???

    SIDENOTE (FYE): IN WINTERTIME (AT "NIGHT"), IF IT'S COLD ENOUGH, YOU MIGHT NEED "THREE DOGS" TO KEEP YOU WARM IN YOUR BED, THUS IT'S A "THREE DOG NIGHT"!!!

    "MAMA TOLD ME NOT TO COME" - THREE DOG NIGHT - 1970 -

    Lyrics:
    Will you have whiskey with your water
    Or sugar with your tea
    What are these crazy questions
    That they're asking of me
    This is the craziest party
    That there ever could be

    And that cigarette you're smoking
    'Bout to scare me half to death

    THREE DOG NIGHT members like SUGAR WITH THEIR TEA, or are we talking about some DRUG SLANG words, since we are dealing with a PARTY SITUATION???

    DRUG SLANG DECODED:
    SUGAR=HEROIN
    SUGAR CUBE=ACID (LSD)
    TEA=MARIJUANA (BEATNIK / 1950's / EARLY 1960'S SLANG)
    CIGARETTE 'BOUT TO SCARE ME HALF TO DEATH=MARIJUANA

    In a mug, steaming. With some stevia and milk please. I prefer Assam tea. Black, strong and hearty.

    I don't do a tea service, I do not own a set with creamer and sugar bowl with matching spoon. My mugs are so large the Dutch called them 'swembads.'

    WHAT KIND OF "SUGAR" DO YOU WANT WITH YOUR "TEA"???

    (PART 2 OF MY PREVIOUS POST #115)

    THREE DOG NIGHT , RAY COOPER

    "Mama Told Me Not to Come"

    (SELECTED "LYRICS" PASSAGES)

    Or sugar with your tea

    I seen so many things
    I ain't never seen before
    I don't know what it is
    But I don't wanna see no more

    DRUG SLANG DECODE:

    BROWN SUGAR=HEROIN
    SUGAR=COCAINE
    SUGAR CUBE=LSD ("ACID")

    Since this "THREE DOG NIGHT" song is OBVIOUSLY about a PARTYING SITUATION, the LYRICS contain DRUG SLANG REFERENCES.

    "Or sugar with your tea"
    WHAT KIND OF "SUGAR" IS THREE DOG NIGHT REFERRING TO??? COCAINE (DRUG SLANG: SUGAR) IS THE MOST OBVIOUS ONE, BUT REFINED, WHITE SUGAR IS JUST AS ADDICTIVE AS COCAINE!!!

    SUGAR "JUNKIES"???

    A new study claims that sugar has a similar effect on the brain as cocaine.
    Matt Payton, The Independent Apr 13, 2016, 6:28 AM

    It is widely thought to affect the brain in a similarity to cocaine, and a new study has suggested people addicted to sugar should be treated in the same way as other drug abusers.

    According to researchers from Queensland University of Technology (QUT), excessive sugar consumption increases the dopamine levels in a similar way to other drugs such as cocaine.

    The study found that long-term consumption of sugar will cause a reduction of dopamine levels. That means, they say, people consume higher and higher levels of sugar in order to reach the same reward levels and avoid mild states of depression.

    LINK: ( A new study claims that sugar has a similar effect on the brain as cocaine )

    DRUG SLANG INTERPRETATIONS:
    TEA = MARIJUANA (BEATNIK SLANG: 1950's - EARLY 1960's)

    "Or sugar with your tea" = COCAINE (SUGAR) + TEA (MARIJUANA)
    "Or sugar with your tea" = LSD (SUGAR CUBE) + REGULAR BEVERAGE TEA
    "Or sugar with your tea" = LSD (SUGAR CUBE) + TEA (MARIJUANA)

    I seen so many things
    I ain't never seen before
    I don't know what it is
    But I don't wanna see no more

    This SPECIFIC PASSAGE of LYRICS OBVIOUSLY refers to HALLUCINATIONS - WHETHER Closed Eyed Visuals (CEV's) or Open Eyed Visuals (OEV's).
    MARIJUANA usually can produce CLOSED EYED VISUALS, while LSD can usually produce EITHER or BOTH CLOSED and OPEN EYED VISUALS.

    SO, WHAT KIND OF "SUGAR" DO WANT WITH YOUR "TEA"???

    CURRENTLY, I'M JUST DRINKING REGULAR TEA (BLACK, WHITE or GREEN) WITH REGULAR, ORGANIC, NATURAL SUGAR, HONEY or 100% FRUIT JUICE!!!

    LOVE AND PEACE,

    I take black tea without milk. These days lemon is added to it for vitamin c related immunity benefits. But the taste has also become so much better that I don't relish black tea anymore.
