Recently come across a Dark Caramel tea which is rather nice. Have also read that there are now alcoholic teas- one is a mix of Black tea, Bergamot and Gin, and another is Oolong tea and whisky !!! |

Dark caramel tea sounds good, not sure about the ones with alcohol yet though. |

Must admit I was sceptical when I ordered it Maggie. I only ordered it to avoid paying postage on my order!! I have been very pleasantly surprised about how good it is |

I'm with you Maggie. I like a strong cuppa, preferably made with loose leaf tea. Our daughter gave us "Biscuit Tea" recently. It wouldn't be polite to post what I said about it but it wasn't complimentary. |

I like Twinings teas and enjoy a ginger tea first think these days instead of ordinary tea. I like most of them so might try the new one. Bergamot and gin sounds interesting speaking as a gin drinker. Oh well I drink whisky as well. |

I think I'll be giving Toast and Jam tea a miss! |

Wonder if they would still be useable? They may be collectors items by now though :-) |

Vera, I am sitting drinking my fist cup of Biscuit tea, managed to get it in Tesco this morning. Am enjoying it. Noticed they also do a Decaf Bedtime brew, with vanilla and nutmeg, must admit that doesn't appeal |

I still have no wish to try these on teas, although I do like some herbal and fruit teas. |

I am glad you are enjoying the biscuit tea KM. Will you be trying the jam and toast one? |

I don't normally have sugar in my tea Names, but until recently one of my favourite drinks was the Nescafe cappuccino or a Double Mocha Chocha. I have just been diagnosed pre diabetic so was looking for drinks with less carbs, so have been experimenting with teas and cold infusions |

The Dark Caramel tea is Twinings, Liz. I get it direct from Twinings but I think Waitrose do it. |
