What Tea/Tisane Are You Drinking?

I am drinking a milk oolong from Republic of tea. I added a couple of crushed red pepper flakes to the tea ball. Doesn't really change the flavor but gives it a nice bite that you can feel in the back of your throat.
Iron Goddess King Oolong from vital tea leaf.
Classic Black tea from Art of Tea this morning.
My tea drinking is pretty regimented I realized. Morning, I either have a cup of coffee or a nice strong cup of Brooke Bond with milk and sugar. During the workday I sip some Lopchu Darjeeling, or guzzle this lemonade/tea concoction in some new machine our office got that makes all sorts of drinks....I don't know crap about golf (stupid sport IMO), but that Arnold Palmer sure knows how to make some iced tea! Once I get home from work, I drink iced roasted barley tea, before bed I make a pot of Rooibos chai on the stove.
Mixed it up a bit today. I found some Puerh that I had forgotten about. It was a mystery tea that I got from a shop in San Francisco a few years back. I brewed it strong and it came out very nice though it seemed low in caffeine. I started to nod off about halfway through the morning. After lunch I brewed up some Japanese Sencha which picked me back up.
Some Yiwu sheng; third infusion, still going!

Lapsang souchong "smoked tea," yeah! I see why Winston Churchill favoured it.

Bigelow earl grey loose tea. Was disappointed, I actually prefer the flavor of their tea bags. Won't be getting this again.
Stash Double Bergamot is my favorite these days.
Lapsang souchong, but Harney's, not the one I got from China.
Bacon and dark fruit notes, the label says. Campfire and a trip to the BBQ is what I see.

Bigelow Lemon Lift from a bag. Quickly rising up my list of favorites. One of the few teas I don't add sugar to.
Vahdam Nilgiri (black) tea from India; brewed hot, then iced.
Nilgiri tea doesn't cloud, so it's good cold. I'm avoiding tea bags - tired of drinking mystery dust-tea - and examine the leaves after brewing.

Nilgiri-Lapsang ice tea ... Golden-Amber with a touch of smoke.

I don't drink tea all that often, but when I do, my tastes are simple and pragmatic.
- At home, usually a loose-leaf Assam, maybe with a bit of milk and sugar, maybe not. Probably too much tea for the amount of water because I have a hard time measuring it.
- At work, some black tea in a bag (Twinings, Bigelow, whatever) dropped in a mug of water that's been microwaved to a boil.
Today I had Assam estate loose leaf 6 infusions.
I am currently having Se Chung oolong. I think I have a new favorite!
Jasmine Dragon Pearls from Tealyra. I just got it. Not bad but it tastes a little old. Very fragrant. It is one of my at work teas. When working with adolescents, as the weather warms, a fragrant tea is needed to offset the boys' over AXEd wreak, if they even bother to deodorize at all, and the girls' belief that if a little perfume smells nice a butt load smells better. Some Jasmine up the nose is a welcome relief.
I am drinking coca-cola 
Twinning English breakfast tea.
