Earl Grey. Hot.
A 100 box of Twinning's (Earl Grey) teabags doesn't last me very long. Tea at my first work break, at 10:00am. Tea at 2:00pm when I finish work. Tea around 6:30pm, after dinner, as a "digestive." Milk, 2 sugar. (Now Monkfruit sweetener, due to the diabetes thing.)
 

I normally drink iced tea with Splenda. I wasn't aware of monkffruit sweetner. I tried stevia but couldn't adjust to it. I do green tea in the evening to relax. Hot with a couple of sweeteners. I haven't tried tea with milk in it. It seems strange to me. I guess drinking it cold with sweeteners and not sugar seems strange to some. lol

Even though I drink it iced, I prepare as if it's hot. I have an electric kettle just for tea. I'll pour the hot water in an insulated cup with the tea bag. I let it steep for a time. The longer, the better. Add sweetener to it and stir. I'll put ice in a tall glass then pour the tea in. Perfect, fresh glass every time.

Visiting the American South was a pain in the butt, as a tea drinker. They know sweet and unsweet, but don't have a clue that it can be served hot.

The Monkfruit sweetener is typically cut with Erythritol. There's no aftertaste that I can detect. Stevia I find to be just horrible.

Hell, in some parts of the South they don't think it can be served unsweetened. It's a 2 to 1 ratio sugar to tea. lol
