Hot with sugar in the Winter. Iced tea with sugar during the Summer. I also like Snapple's Raspberry Tea as well.

I drink iced tea more often. I always keep a big tin of Nestea lemon crystals in the larder. In the summertime I keep a big jug of it in the fridge. I also like hot tea, which I drink with cream and sugar. It is nice to have with some buttered crumpets and jam, for a little snack. I drink Red Rose tea (only available in Canada). If I'm feeling flush, I'll get a little Formosa Oolong.

Iced tea unsweetened with lemon; herbal tea if spicy/sweet, usually iced; flavored teas such as Snapple -- with lemon. Lemon is required. Iced is preferred. I do also like Thai Iced Tea with condensed milk in it.

When, it's hot, I only like sugar. Milk or cream makes me puke. And I drink coffe the other way - very little sugar, and a lot of milk (not cream).

I used to drink Nestea all the time as a kid. My parents never had good tea, just Lipton's and Nestea. Eventually I had real iced tea and I couldn't drink Nestea anymore.

I love Diet Snapple. Iced tea is also one of my weaknesses but it's a teeth-stainer and I'm obsessed about having chiclet-white ones. The times I want hot tea are very rare (I live in the tropics, gosh darnmit) and when I do, I pour half a bottle of honey into it.

Cold sweetened tea is good. But I do love the type that comes pre mixed, just stir it in and add some sugar. That's the best.

I have to add sugar, I'm a sugar feind!

Oh. No big deal. I was just mimicking one of their old ad campaigns for the possible amusement of my fellow Canadians. It was like their big slogan, they did it for years. I think the point was that it wasn't available in the UK, because they would always have some Brit doing the slogan...It is a good thing I don't watch TV any more. I really think it may have warped my mind...  * grin *

I think I'm probably far too lazy to go to that much trouble...in spite of the fact that I will precook potatoes just to make hashbrowns...

Well, clearly that reference flew right over my head!
I don't think I've ever seen a commercial for Red Rose tea here. Or anywhere else, for that matter.
I can relate to commercials being dementia-inducing. It's crazy the number of little memes I have floating around in my head from commercials I saw in my childhood. For instance, when I was little there were commercials for a brand of fertilizer called Bandini. One of the ads featured a man skiing down a huge pile of manure, and all of them had the slogan "Bandini is the word for fertilizer." Well, here in Boston there is a news anchor whose last name is Bandini. So every time I hear or see her name, I think "Bandini is the word for fertilizer." It's terrible. That being said, there are also some really cool commercials out there these days.

I've never heard of doing that before... how does your hashbrown recipe go?

I just make iced tea two huge pitchers at a time; we drink a lot of it.

Yeah, I don't see too many lately, but I did see one a while ago for pepsi that really cracked me up. They used "I Ran" by A Flock Of Seagulls in it. I won't bother describing it, you probably saw it. I thought it was hilarious!  * grin *

Well, you start off with potatoes that have been previously cooked and are sitting in the fridge. Then you slice them up and fry them in a frying pan. Nothing too complicated really...I had a baked potato for dinner last night, I cooked a couple of extra ones for hash browns...that reminds me; I better put eggs, cooking oil, butter and bread on the shopping list...and juice... * grin *

Hot,both sweetened and unsweetened.
My favorite way to take tea is the right way to make tea.No teabags,all the kettle and powder thing.But I often don't have the time and go for the teabag or even ( * shock * ) machine-made tea)...also I like tea a lot,but can't drink it much.Used to drink like 5 cups of it a day,now I limit myself to a cup of tea when I really need it (if it's cold,I have to stay awake,someone gives me tea as a present etc..)
I also found today that I like coffee.Well,I always liked coffee flavour,but everytime I tried to drink a proper cup of coffee I would get all sick and nauseous.Also,the sugar was always too little or too much.Well,I found out that I just have to add a little water after making it and I can drink it. * smile *
I think I'm going to try coffee like they do in America,which is more my taste maybe.
But,well I don't plan to start drinking coffee.I mean I had to quit with tea for health problem,coffee would be worse.And I still like tea more.So from now one will be a cup of this and a cup of that only when I need it.
 * smile *

5/6 cups a day half machine tea and half super-powerful-so-black-it-looks-like-coffee tea.
I also went on a iced tea binge once.I was a tea-addict or something.I remember once asking for another pot of tea in a bar and the barman looking me as I just ordered a bottle of whiskey and wanted another.Well,okay.I drank like 3 or 4 machine's teas,and two pots of normal tea.Then I went back to school and felt like I was on coke or something.Never took cocaine,but I took diet pills and I must admit that I was more bouncy and wired on tea.

Growing up, I had sweetened ice tea every night at dinner. It is still my favorite, but I don't drink it as often any more.
