>mate tea is closer to which type of tea? black or green?
Neither really, it's a herbal tea so a different plant all together.

Perfect middle ground between green and black tea.
anyone know of any online distributors of high quality loose leaf tea? willing to shell out a bit of cash for the good shit.
>>7588658
Yes
I don't mean to sound pretentious, but it really makes the tea bitter and loses a lot of depth of flavor

I'm supposed to drink tea with or without sugar? Which is more common? What about other ways to replace the sugar?
bubble tea :3
I personally like chamomile before bed, and english breakfast in the morning
>>7588705
Most tea is good enough on its own that it doesn't need sugar.
Black tea is strong enough that a bit of sugar or jam won't hurt it, but green tea is absolutely destroyed by sugar.
I like ceylon
>>7588596
mate is not tea. that being said it tastes much more like green to me.
>>7588796
nice senpai
>>7588796
what jam?
>>7588639
oolong is good, great oolong will make you feel like you transcend the experience of life, like your tastebuds open up for the first time like a crocus when the snow melts..
it's a heavenly, sublime experience really only topped by having sex when you're on psychedelics or opiates
Which one is the most meme reddit tea

earl grey
>>7589012
i never tasted this motherfucker
how should I? Sugar/honey?
>>7589022
brew it very short, otherwise it tastes like perfume and nothing but that. no sugar no honey, but rock sugar works real well. especially the crackling one, the one that makes noises when you throw it into the tea. just a little.
>>7589062
Nice
Im going to leddit the shit out of my tea when I get one
>>7589070
you go, girl
>>7589113
i live in brazil and me and my friends generally use a simple cup and shit but the gourds look better on the eyes and portray some exotic vibe to foreigners
Where I live it is generally served cold, which most consider a heresy

The four main kinds of teas are easily likened to the four seasons, to put it as pretentiously as one could.
Winter - black teas. Strong enough to still be tasty even if your nose is stuffy, often hot enough after brewing to clear the nose. Also enough backbone you can drink it alongside any food really, and you won't lose many of its good traits.
Spring - White tea. Clean, bright, and delicate- a lot like the new growths on trees and plants.
Summer: Green teas- light, sweet, and you can brew them then serve it over ice and still have some of its more distinct flavors, while an iced white tea, unless brewed extremely strong, will just taste like water.
Fall - oolong. It's a complex type of tea, but generally they're earthy and with a more powerful taste than whites and greens, while still having that delicate nature to them.
IMO a good puerh/oolong is hard to beat.
>>7588705
If your teas are bitter enough to where you need to add sugar to make it drinkable, you're brewing it wrong. However, if it's already drinkable and you just want a little bit of sugar added, use a tiny amount- what would make coffee slightly sweet will turn tea into liquid diabetes.

got it
I brewed today the first tea in my life
Does anyone here make kombucha? I'm about to be making my first batch and am wondering what type of tea to order for it. I need 8 bags or the equivalent in loose tea.
>>7587406
Any tea is bomb-ass if you drink it with Sugarstar.
>>7588560
this guy knows what's up
I want to get some sage tea, oolong, and some kind of white 'spring' tea like that anon suggested. I'm all for the season method.
Any recs for brands? How should I make it, I have no kettle.

>>7589703
kettle is for heating plain water which is then poured into pot or other vessel where the tea is. Anything can be a teapot. I use a freedom press.
>>7589935
This does not answer their question at all, they asked for tea recommendations.
>>7588888
quints of truth, oolong is officially the best tea.
Japanese Sencha is GOAT
