Since the holiday season is upon us, I thought I'd just throw something out there for anyone else in the U.S. who likes tea. I mentioned it last year, but the board has been wiped since then, so I'm tossing it out again:

Celestial Seasonings makes a really great Cinnamon Apple Spice tea. Its fine iced, but hot its almost like an apple cider tea, sort of. (You do have to add sweetener to it, but honey works just as good as sugar or a sugar substitute)

Oh, and if anyone here drinks tea that's of the loose leaf variety, can I have a few recommendations? I found a website that sells various teas and ordered a special microwavable teapot and some samples of various teas, but they have a ton of different types of teas on the site. (For the record, I'm not a big fan of Earl Gray - I'll drink it if I have to, but I don't usually buy or order it)

Celestial Seasonings also makes a tea called Bengal Spice - a very "warm" tea with cardamom, cinnamon and black pepper.  It doesn't need sugar and reminds me a bit of a more  . . . hm, "masculine" (?) chai.  One of my faves.

if you can find any "DaeChu" tea,  or Jujube tea, i would recommend that.  its kind of like cinammon/persimmon berry tea.
