    Because people have a habit of calling things something they're similar to, but don't actually qualify as. Like boneless chicken "wings".

    So I am running low on my incredible loose leaf earl grey that was given to me by a friend who does not have a name attached to it (thus, cannot procure more).

    I need some recommendations. The first person who says Teavana will be strangled/shot.

    Ok, I went to the Twinings website to look at their tea varieties and I had a good chuckle over the fact that the first thing that splashes across my monitor is an image promoting their cold brew iced tea bags.

    To be fair, it is the Twinings U.S. site.

    Earl Grey and Lady Grey are not very pleasant teas

    Stop trying to sell me them!

    Earl Grey can be drank when there is nothing else, but it wouldn't be my first choice.

    earl grey is the one tea that to me actually benefits from milk.

    well pretty much anything to dilute that weird herby aftertaste.
