Well, I guess I'm in the upper echelons as well! Or is it a worse sin to put sugar in green tea?! I'm confused now...

I must be freakin' royalty, then!  ;)

I do admit to having sugar & semi-skimmed milk when I don't feel well - it's more of a "comfort food" than a beverage then.  :D

I'm probably one step down from the brick-layer, gov'.
I know I'm late - where's the booze?

I drink PG Tips most mornings, though will have an occasional Breakfast Tea or Earl Grey (this one more in the afternoon) and all cuppas have some milk/no sugar in them.  I love having peppermint tea in the winter with a touch of sugar to bring out the sweetness of the mint.

Errr...

Japanese Green Tea, no sugar - you know the first time I came back to the states, my best friend put sugar in her green tea and I almost fainted. :o

PG Tips, Tetly, or when I feel like a treat, Betty's Blend - all drunk with no milk or sugar.

Liptons Ice Tea  - Sister sent me a few boxes, you know the ones you add cold water to.  Love it when I'm having pizza or fried chicken.  :P

twinnings select (found in asda, black boxes) lady grey (orangy flavor). Good stuff - a must have for work every morning.

I used to love Constant Comment (is it by Bigelow?) in the US.  Really nice and spicy/orangey.

Yorkshire is a wonderful tea - but it's a bit more pricey than my PG Tips.  So we can't do it as an "everyday" tea.

I like Darjeeling and Oolong (India and China tea). Also green on occasion (no sugar) to keep DH company.
If I'm needing a strong tea, almost coffee-like, I drink lapsang souchong (sp?), which is smoky, with a bit of milk.  Going to have to look for the PG tips in Publix! :-)

I like Assam too... stewed very strong, with milk and no sugar.
Nambarrie is also a nice strong tea.

True its more pricey,but I like my tea strong,the bride likes it not so strong and the lad likes it weaker,so one tea bag makes us three cups(or in our case mugs) full.So if you're a tightwad like me and divide the cost by 3 its not so bad.LOL.
