It takes 5 months to get tea shelf-ready.

Also, the average brit drinks 4 cups of tea a day.

I usually have about one a day. usually when my mum or dad's making one I'll grab one as well. (Just milk, no sugar) Quite similar to being down the pub really. ^_^

I never drink tea or coffee

If I am drinking tea though, I have it with 2 spoons of sugar and like half a cup of milk :wacko:

Lots of milk and I used to have about 8 teaspoons of sugar but I am cutting down to 4-5 cuz I don't sleep much.

I love tea...I'm going to have some now, actually (I brought some from home! <3 English tea!).
But of course, I mostly drink coffee....chocolate soy milk is good, too o_O
I'm so buying some tonight.

Whoa! That's a lot of tea. I suppose the UK consumes a lot... those tv shows from over there are always showing people drinking tea. I suppose it's better than coffee, if you ask me.

It doesn't beat coffee in taste, but it beats coffee health-wise. Well, except decaf, which is actually alright for you D:
Who drinks decaf, though? XD

Not me.

Tea counts towards your reccommended daily intake of water.

Most other drinks don't.

Except water.

Water > Coffee/tea

1. Its easier to make [turn on the tap or pour it from a bottle]
2. Its healthier
3. It tastes better

Water here tastes like salt and bleach.. which kinda worries me.

Healthier remains to be seen in a long term time scale.

Tea tastes good with 8 sugars.

Salt and bleach? Well, that's odd.

8 sugars, you say? Well, that kind of ruins the tea. It's no longer tea, it's.... sugar with water and minor flavoring.

The tap water here tastes like chlorine. I don't drink it anymore...we have a water jug in the house.
In fact, we got it just about the time that our water turned brown and smelled like sewage. I didn't drink the tap water for a month x.x
It was undrinkable for 2 weeks =/

That must stink. Nobody likes gross water. As far as I've come with disgusting water is little black things floating around in it. And those were eventually filtered out...

One time I was taking a shower, and they just happened to decide to fix the sewer pipes...so I'm just there in the shower and sewage starts coming up the drain, smelling like corpses.
It was disgusting . . . .
