Over the years I've come to kinda like it although it's no match for the better UK brands which are too expensive here if you can get them. Trick with the Lipton ones is to make sure you get the 'International' ones - our SM periodically only has the standard which are weaker. I get 2 cups out of 1 bag (keep the bag in too!) with the International one but only 1 with the other. Serious stuff tea to us Brits, I can honestly say that I can pretty much drink any beer I'm given but for tea I like what I like. And it's milk first! If you hang the tea bags out in the sun for a few minutes you can reuse them. Dam, that's the Yorkshire man in me coming out. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Off the demon drink for over 18 months, not that I was a real drinker anyway. Cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
