Loose or Bagged Tea

I have had my experience with both loose tea and tea in a bag. The difference between the two is like having ground coffee from a bag (bagged tea) and grinding your own (loose). Loose tea is fresher and has a strong but pleasant aroma. While bagged tea is less of a hassle, but not as fresh. I personally prefer bagged tea because it's quicker and easier for me. Another reason I prefer bagged tea is because with loose tea, the tea ends up bitter a portion of the time. Either way though, tea is delightful!

Sun Tea

During the summer, I switch from hot tea to iced tea. My favorite way to have iced tea is by making sun tea. In this process tea bags can be put in a clear large container filled with water, then is placed in the sun for one or two hours. Sun tea bags can be bought specially at the store or regular tea bags can be experimented with. After that mixture has sat in the sun for a bit, the tea bags can be taken out. In that container you have your sun tea. To complete the iced tea, fill a glass with ice, and pour the sun tea onto the ice. Optionally, you can add some sugar or mint to add some sweetness or a mix of flavor to you sun tea. That for you is sun tea.

Crazy Tea

One time, I was in a mall and I came across a tea place that I don't recall the name of. Outside of it there were many samples of tea and a friendly Asian woman. My friend and I walked up to the place to try a sample. I tried the first one and it was very delicious and not bitter. I ended up trying multiple varying from tea that you put in a glass and let it grow into a plant, to tea that was $40 for a small box. The aisan women would explain every type of tea in great detail. That experience I had with tea was very memorable because I remember it as the time I drank forty dollar tea.

Hot and Cold Tea

Drinking tea hot and drinking tea cold, are very different experiences. When you drink hot tea, it may have a stronger aroma and maybe even a little different taste. Drinking hot tea is very beneficial when you may be sick with a sore throat. Cold or iced tea is a very common way to drink tea. You can brew up a hot pot of tea, then just  add some ice cubes to make it iced. This is a very refreshing way to drink tea on a hot summer day. Whether it's hot or cold, tea is enjoyable.

Tea is Found Worldwide

Throughout the world I imagine there are probably over 1000 different types of tea. Tea is drunk all over the planet. Asia is known for having a lot of tea and drinking it daily with meals. A type of tea known to me that is very common in Asia and now almost anywhere else, is green tea. Green tea is supposedly very good for you and it comes with many healthy benefits.  Another country known for drinking tea is England. They have "tea time" with things such as cookies or some biscuits. They may drink "English tea. "Those are the couple of places that I know associated with lots of tea. In the US, we have tea imported to us and we drink whatever appeals to us. Tea is a universal element.
