down south it's sweet tea for me!
also while growing up in an East Indian household, I was pretty decent at making chai. I do drink it from time to time.

Poppers, oooh early gray I forgot about that one. Yummm.
Fading, I love a good chai. You mention you grew up in an East Indian household. I used to clean for a couple from India and she was always making spiced tea on the stove. It smelled so good! This was way before chai was so popular.

I love Redbush Tea from South Africa. It also comes in caffiene free vanilla, it's really nice.

Hey Blackswan, the way my mom taught me was to add a couple of cloves, a couple of cardamom seeds (I don't know if I spelled this right, so please be easy on me Terry!), and a stick of cinnamon in the water then let it come to a boil. Add a Tetly tea bag and let it steep for a few minutes, then add milk and let it come back to a boil and voila! You have FadingAway style chai!

I also like Good Earth Green Tea - its got lemongrass in it, which is what makes it good IMO.

Orange Pekoe, the forgotten. HOT hot water. Take the teabag out before adding milk. Tea-making is a lost art.

I prefer black tea, made from loose tea. As an English friend pointed out a long time ago, tea shouldn't be wrapped in toilet paper.
