I like Twinings English breakfast a lot, LOVE Tazo Berryblossom White, Ahmad Tea's peach and passion fruit, which after finding it in the store had to resort to a small English tea shop near our old apartment (thus hoarding the last box), and I just today found Twinings Pomegranate Delight, which is lovely!Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00727985096723353538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5980870119150557142.post-69636976515420347932012-01-17T18:23:06.746-05:002012-01-17T18:23:06.746-05:00here's a link for the white heron cranapplegin...here's a link for the white heron cranappleging.<br /><br />http://store01.prostores.com/servlet/whiteherontea/the-32/Cranberry-Apple-Ginger%2C-Organic/DetailPamela Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251452639317129182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5980870119150557142.post-10676215611464528962012-01-17T18:21:51.654-05:002012-01-17T18:21:51.654-05:00well, i have to say........for breakfast....Barry&...well, i have to say........for breakfast....Barry's Irish Breakfast Tea. Needless to say, it's Irish so if your store has an international aisle you might find it.<br /><br />My afternoon or night tea pics include White Heron Tea/Cranberry Apple Ginger (LOVE) - it's a local company but they are online. I'm not a big licorice person but for some reason I do like yogi tea Egyptian licorice. Go figure and I received a sample of tea forte and enjoyed the white ambrosia and black currant.<br /><br />what about you Kristen? what are you faves?Pamela Bateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13251452639317129182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5980870119150557142.post-77735991873353414072012-01-17T18:12:25.828-05:002012-01-17T18:12:25.828-05:00So what are your go-to teas?
