What are your favourite teabags? Currently like twinings everyday but trying to budget.

Liptons seems to be universally unpopular but the only place I've ever seen it is in European hotels, where I usually drink coffee in the morning and fruit tea or alcohol in the afternoon/evenings. But I generally take my own teabags on holiday so I can have 'nice tea'. Don't judge me, otherwise, I'm very much about the local food and they don't take up any space in a suitcase.

I've always wondered about Ringtons - isn't it very expensive to have it delivered?

I have Ringtons, they do have rounds that deliver. I am lucky that there is a round in my area. He comes to my home. I choose what I want on the day. Usually buy their delicious biscuits as well. No delivery fee. Have a look on their website to see if they have a round in your area

I ordered Ringtons on their website. Delivered by Royal Mail a few days later.

Does anyone rate Fortnum and masons? Someone I know buys them. Must be good.

They're fine, but not worth the price tag imo. I used to get them for Christmas. Now their biscuits on the other hand...

I’m not a hot drink kinda person so in the once in a blue moon time I decide to have one it’s always been pg tips… I was brought up on them, my son literally drink any other either.

Ringtons verdict
Gold - too strong. Leaves me feeling wired.

Breakfast tea (green packet): Just right. Good, strong flavour.

I love Tea People’s pyramid tea bags, which are completely plastic-free. I literally carry them with me wherever I travel.
