I went all winter without a sniffle, but now I've got a cold so I'm actually having a cup of hot green tea right now - very soothing!

The green tea will get rid of that cold for you, Marie! Black tea is also an immune system booster. :)
Feel better soon, sweetie! :-*

I was reading an interesting article posted on MSNBC. It said that people who drank 5 cups of black tea a day for two weeks transformed their immune system T cells into "Hulk cells" capable of pumping out 10 times as much cold and flu virus fighting interferon. :)
They said Green tea would probably have the same results.

Like most Aussies we are brought up with having a cup of tea with a meal.
Growing up, there was always a teapot of tea made, to drink after we had finished eating most meals.
I have hot tea, with milk and sugar. I like it sweet so have two or three teaspoonfuls of sugar, depending on the size of the cup.
Contrary to what people often think about us tea drinkers, I dont drink it out of a little cup with my little finger poking out as I hold the cup. I drink it out of a mug.
But when I was a kid, we always have a cup and saucer on the table in front of our plate for our cup of tea.
Since everyone mostly uses tea bags now, most of the new generation have never had a tea pot, or used loose tea leaves to make the tea.
I have four or five cups of tea a day. Rarely drink coffee at home, but if I go to Mcdonalds I always get coffee.
David In Indy:
Did you take the coffee poll, Sue?
I love iced tea in the summer, but unlike the Southerners I don't like my iced tea sweet. I drink it plain. I rarely drink hot tea though, although I do like hot tea. I just never think about making any. :-\
