Subject: RE: BS: A proper cup of tea: nothing like it!
I have to confess that for general cost-savings, I buy the can of loose tea for ice tea that Kroger grocery stores sell. Their intent is clearly that one puts large amounts of it in machines for brewing a dense tea for dilution as iced tea. But I use a scoop at a time in the morning for my first cup or two of the day. The can is 12 ounces and costs all of about $3. Lasts for quite a while.

I like many of the spices and fruit flavors. My cutoff for caffeinne during the day is 3pm, and after that I drink the teas with other flavors, because decaff black tea tastes as bland as dishwater.
