So that's why the Americans dumped the tea in Boston Harbor!

I still prefer brewing my tea, but courtesy of an excellent tea store here I stock up on awesome high-quality bagged tea regularly as well

And yea, I drink coffee and tea in amounts fit for a true European. My teeth look appropriately European cause of it too

No. I don't like coffee. I'm an American who likes tea. Does that make me a Tory? On the other hand I only drink the cheap stuff I can buy at Wal-Mart.

Oh, and I replied the way I did because I was told by a reliable source that you Brits talk funny.:rotfl:

By the way, I don't drink coffee either. Sort of addicted to Tazo tea, especially Black Chai organic. You are not alone!
