I take it two times a day, and it refreshes me for the whole day.

Hello! I know this brand does not sell their matcha powder, but has anyone tried it and found something similar in taste? It just tasted like ice cream to me.

Let me know!

Hi, I really enjoyed jasmine and green teas but I've got, at least, what feels like an annoying setup. I'm looking for recommendations or help because I'd love to drink jasmine tea at my desk through multiple steeps but getting up to get more water, or boiling more water, etc. causes a lot of annoying amount of time going back to the kitchen and stuff, it feels especially like this when I just like using a small amount of tea just for myself.

My initial thoughts would be to have a temp controlled electric kettle, and a tea pot but I thought I'd see if I could get useful insights or straight up answers or recommendations to my problems before I buy anything. I'm not very knowledgable in the tea area, I just know I like getting teas from tea shops and drinking the teas with the instruction on the back of the box.

If anyone could help me out with some insight or if someone could even show me some links to some products that could have me easily drinking my tea at my desk I'd be very grateful and appreciate it a lot!!

So I've always wanted to become a tea drinker because I think its soothing but I think the flavors are so boring and bland. Well, not that much. It's just, whenever I drink tea all I can taste is the nasty herbs, honey, or lemon. I can never taste anything else. It doesn't matter whether it's green tea, chamomile Earl gray, black tea, i taste tinted water... thats it. I want my tea to taste like VANILLA or CARAMEL! Or like an ACTUAL fruit like a peach or a strawberry. All tea tastes like close to nothing for me. I want something that feels like hot chocolate. Something that EXPLODES with flavor but with no added sugar (Unless it's monk fruit). I'm desperate. Please give me recommendations. I want brands, reviews, flavors, and even tactics. Like tell me how to get the most flavor out of my tea. Also on another note, I be wanting to add milk to my tea, but it curdles. What do I do? Bc I like the thought of a thicker tea.

hey friends, so the last time i bought spearmint tea from amazon in a pouch thing, it had little flies in it and had to immediately return it. still kinda traumatized about it, tbh! any in-person store info which sells a variety of interesting teas, at affordable rates of course, would be much appreciated. thanks a lot in advance :)

I drink on average 6-9 cups of green tea per day.
I drink a loose leaf sencha green tea.
Steeping as follows: 0.75-1tbsp first steep 30 seconds at a little under 180 degrees fahrenheit. Second steep same leaves 35-45 seconds at same temperature, 3rd steep 3-10 minutes, 190 degrees fahrenheit. I find that this steeping method produces the best flavor for me personally. What does Reddit think? Do you have a different method? Does anyone else re-steep several times to enjoy difference in flavor and * more green tea?
