This might be a regional trend.  Lately I can't seem to get a cup of tea-flavored tea, hot or 
cold, anywhere around here.  I like black teas.  English Breakfast, darjeeling, etc.  None of 
these green, herbal or fruit flavored teas for me.  I get such funny looks when I reject the  
jasmine or blackberry or even earl grey tea.  Yes, our local coffee shop had iced Earl Grey 
one day.  I can't imagine it.

Tea should taste like tea.  If I wanted Kool-aid, I'd make some myself. *Hmmmpf*

Oh, and milk with hot and lemon with cold.  And the milk goes in first and I skip the jam 
and just load on lots of clotted cream.
