Although this post will be at least somewhat about tea, I've had yerba maté
instead of coffee for a couple of recent mornings. I've been a big coffee
fan for years, but I've drunk much less since I found maté--which I drink
quite a bit of now.

My curiosity about maté led me to this group (TINTG), which led to the
reawakining of my curiosity about tea.

Now I've enjoyed some really good Earl Grey, and I have some Assam,
gunpowder green and English Breakfast on the way. My neighbor started
reminiscing about English Breakfast when I shared some Earl Grey with her,
and I'm looking forward to that. Maybe I'll have to give you a final
answer later :O)

I used to adore English Breakfast. I still like it. Even stronger is Irish
Breakfast. A friend of mine used to make her own blend of the two- she
called it 'battle in a cup'. I always have my British-style teas with milk
and sugar. To me they taste better that way.
