A quick question to some of you: what was your first experience trying tea like?

Man, I can't remember. Same with coffee; it's just something I've always liked, and I can't remember the first time I had it (no "tea and coffee are bad for little children!" parents here!).

My family has always had iced tea in the house
Limpton ice tea i think it is, depending on who made it its either very strong or sweet as syrup.

My first experience with hot brewed tea was acctually at an awesome restaurant in Hawaii called tanaka of tokyo or something like that and at the end of the meal they served a small cup of very nice green tea which was my first taste of the wonderful stuff
(note that I was like 6 when this happened and no my family does not frequent places like that but the whole family got invited there. If you ever get the cash to go to hawaii and that restaurant I would highly suggest it. as well as the seafood vendors around some of the beaches)

If you go into hospital, they have tea in the IV drip.

Dead man walking here. I like fruity teas, but unfortunately I am no connoisseur. I just drink it on occasion.

Fruity tea isn't that bad.
On fruity tea
My sister took me to  teavana a year ago and we both got fruity tea.
I got a cherry blossom green tea as well as a mint green tea. pretty meh.
My sister, however, got a citrus fruit tea that was freaking great. It tasted like lemony white tea and it was delicious *^*

so I would like to get a hold of some white tea, or perhaps white peurh tea, loose leaf is fine.

A lot of it is in tea cakes though, and I am not sure how to use those.

Also, does anyone have any suggestions I can order from amazon?

Sh-sh-sugar?!?!?
What heresy is this?!?
Honey is the only sweetener that should be used for teas
(Entirely kidding, though a mound of sugar in tea isn't good :/

I know.

It led to me avoiding sweet tea, so I dunno if it's any good in moderation as I've never tried it, but sugarless tea for me.

First year of college, my uncle gave me a pack of various herbal teas. I had a cup of tea early each morning and worked on homework in the basement of the college. I put it in a coffee cup and boiled it in the microwave.

Twas a bit hard to drink, it was bitter.
