Today's unpleasant discovery

[steepholm]

I do like an afternoon pot of green tea, but - ugh! - not with ginseng, apparently. It tastes as if it it's had some ghastly artificial sweetener mixed in. And now I have a whole packet to work through. That'll teach me to stray from the strait path of antioxidant goodness. First it was green instead of white, then green with added bergamot (a little decadent?), and now this ginseng perdition - the death of a thousand perforations. Fly, fly my friends! Learn by my fate!

Your warning has been noted! It sounds horrible.

I have to say I tried white tea once and hated it, but I like green and also green with jasmine. But I am not as virtuous as you. I drink a variety, including bog standard Co-op 99 decaf.

Jasmine's good. But I can't stand the bog standard stuff. For many years I believed I didn't like tea at all, since that was all I'd ever been offered, so green and white have transformed my world, somewhat. I do get laughed at by my mother when I turn up at her house with a little stash of my arty-farty teabags, however.
