Favorite Teas When Writing Or Drawing

My wife got a mix of "hibiscus, tangerine skin and brown sugar" from a nearby shop, which is nice but too sweet for me. When I'm writing/drawing I generally go for Longjing in day time, and maybe Oolong in the evening, to get inspiration going.

But today I'll definitely try adding cloves, sounds great... I wonder why it never come to me before as I generally put cloves everywhere (rum, gin, chicken soup, curry etc.).

My absolute favorite is Adagio's chestnut tea, black. It's so earthy and calming.

Adagio also lets you make your own blends, which is super fun! I've made a few to rep our comic.

I like a good oolong. It just has a nice earthiness, and if it's brewed long enough, a kick that's strong enough to really wake me up.

Jodo stumbled on a recipe for Warhammer 40k decaf. Instead of brewing coffee with water, brew it with tea. This one cannot wait. EDIT: recaf, that is.

Usually I go for forest fruits or black tea with lemon. My partner loves some lapsang (I totally wrote that wrong) smoked black tea.

Also this thread is highly suspicious with our anthology going on

I'm a big sucker for Strong Mint. The stronger the better. Gimme that rush of MINT! <3

I like Rooibos (Red Bush) and Cyclopia (Honey Bush). They're cousins, but honey bush has a more perfume-ish flavor. They taste even better together (Green Rooibos).

My brother put Tabasco sauce in my tea this morning

I am a big fan of Early Grey, so I usually have that with some milk (and sometimes honey). But other times I like a strong green tea, or peppermint. Very occasionally I'll boil fresh lemons and ginger and have that for the entire day.

I cant do that...to me, cream just dilutes the taste. I dont even put cream in my coffee; I want the beverages to do their thing and I feel like cream/creamers take away from that. I know there are certain flavored cream that does enhance the flavor, but I like getting the unfettered taste...I will use sweetners(Splenda since I cant have actual sugar in my coffee/tea anymore, and honey- particularly for tea), but ixnay for cream.

Does the mixture in my stomach of black coffee and sour candies that I eat as I work count as a tea? Maybe?

Funnily enough, I love my teas super strong (though I will get mine with cream and flavoring if it's part of a specialty drink.) But I can't drink coffee straight up without heavy cream or sweeteners because the acidity gives me incredibly bad stomaches a lot of the time.

I just love tea in general, though. Fruity/citrusy, minty, and green teas are my favorites. Also have this orange-vanilla rooibos tea that I love as well.
