    A Query:  Are you a tea drinker?  Favorite(s)?  Bags or by the pot?  If bags, do you reuse the teabag?  Lifelong habit or adopted when older?

    Tea:  Me, coffee since high school(60 years ago).  Tea drinking started after age 50.  Black coffee in the morning with breakfast.  Tea choice in order of preference and daily use:  EarlGrey, Oolong, herbal varieties or decaf black.  Time of day, mid-morning(10:00AM), mid-afternoon(3:00PM), mid-evening(8:00PM no caffeine), I never reuse the teabag.  I dip a couple of times while brewing for 2.5 minutes, in microwaved water, nearly boiling, and squeeze the bag with the tag before discarding.  I do have a tea ball but don't use it anymore, don't make it by the pot.  Single cups only.yes

    I like tea. We use teabags. I just leave the bag in the hot water until I remember it's there. I don't reuse the bags. And I have used Keurig tea pods. Tea is something I started experimenting with as an adult, after I decided I should do something about the coffee addiction.

    I use a tea infuser. Many modern teabags made with synthetic polymers release large numbers of micro‑ and nanoplastic particles during brewing; studies report billions of particles per cup and show these particles can interact with human intestinal cells.

    ...I have taken to drinking tea on some mornings and purchase a brand from the UK.  Brews a nice strong cup.

    I can only choke down coffee if it's half cocoa. Otherwise, it's a hard pass. I don't do bitter. I drink tea occasionally. Usually flavored teas, like Chai or almond, and I add French vanilla creamer. Unless I happen to get a mint or citrus tea (uncommon). Those don't get creamer. And I use tea bags, used once, not squeezed.

    My parents weaned their children from the bottle and sippy cups by giving them 'coffee milk with sugar' in a real glass or mug. So my addiction started early. I cut out the sugar when I almost 30, and stopped drinking all sodas then. Tea, well it depends. Chamomile for migraines, Irish or English Breakfast with milk and a small spoon of sugar. My son and I loved stopping for British Tea when we would shop in London or Ipswich on the weekends. I also keep Green Tea for special occassions. And my flatmate has his own favorites we stock. Bag is fine for a quick cup, but when we both feel the need, the fancy tea pots comes out.

    The Commissary is able to get some tea brands from England that I like, along with biscuits.
