I like iced green tea (mostly the sugar though) but can't drink it hot. The last time i had chai tea i got incredibly sick so i will not be drinking that again. Irish breakfast seems to be my current favorite though i would like to try other loose teas to see whats out there.

As i was researching loose tea to brew (i'm sure much like pre-ground coffee isant as good as fresh, loose tea is better than packets) and looking at the teapots and such to brew with i wondered if i couldn't just use a frenchpress. i mean does anyone see why this wouldn't work for tea?

Also i agree about starbucks, its over roasted and over priced.
