When it was tested, the results came back... "This horse has diabetes."
![]() To say that I have rather strong feelings about Lipton for hot tea is like saying the Dead Sea is a wee bit salty. While Lipton's "Yellow Label" is 'almost' drinkable, regular Liptons is not! The last time I was in the States, Lipton still wasn't selling 'Yellow Label' there. I wonder if that has changed? Lipton is to fine tea as 'Hombre,' 'Thunderbird,' and 'Ripple' are to fine wine.

When I visited my parents in Israel last Easter, I bought a pack of yellow label Lipton. I gave up after 3 cups. My wife is a much stronger character. She was trying till previous Sunday, 10th October 2010. When in the later morning I went downstairs to prepare a second cuppa for both of us I brewed the usual Yorkshire Gold for me and Lipton yellow label for her with milk of course.........that was the last straw. The whole pack went to rubbish bin. I never tried Lipton when I lived in Israel, I drank Wissotzky Tea with sugar... ![]() An interesting fact. You cannot buy Lipton black tea in the UK (at least tea bags). Only in duty free or abroad. Second cuppa. Last edited by astra; 10-18-2010 at 04:44 AM. |

Twinings Lemon & Ginger... aromatically it's nice... taste wise it's severely lacking. Might add some real lemon and real ginger into the mix and make it a crazy soup

I drink tea every where. The office laughs at me when we go to offsite training because I bring an infuser and 4-5 loose leaf teas with me. Or I make my own tea bags.
I am on my first pot of the day. Rooibos Lemon (Tea Gschwendner). |
