I just bought some Constant Comment tea online. Decaf. MiddleFingerMom

used to suggest it to me but I was not a huge tea drinker at the time and didn't know where to get it. So here is to my first tea of my new anti diet coke diet and here is to MFM.

The decaf was my go-to pregnancy beverage oh so many years ago.

I’m glad you’re finding new options to enjoy. That’s fun, and makes an anti-anything change much easier.

5. Another great decaf option if you like cinnamon is Harney's Hot Cinnamon Sunset in decaf.

9. I love their stuff. In the summer I keep a jar of very strong raspberry tea in the fridge

and pour it into seltzer water. Soooo delicious.

But I love cinnamon and the cinnamon sunset is perfect on a cold day.

Comment is the only flavored tea I will drink. It’s a nice balance of spice and sweet.

I bought some Darjeeling at the grocery store today and noticed the store carries CC decaf and regular.

Can't wait till I try all sorts of ways to have it. I tried it with cream and Stevie and it was amazing.

13. If you, like me purchase local honey that crystalizes especially in colder temps...

and you get down the last third or so and can no longer get it to liquefy by dipping the jar or bottle in a hot water bath... (Granted my Colorado home is not overly heated in the wintertime, so the honey is being stored in ambient temps that likely stay well under 60 F, but some of this honey even crystallizes in the summertime).

My long-avoided solution is not so bad. I simply dilute the honey IN the actual bottle with really hot water, shake well and then just pour the solution a tablespoon or so at a time into my steamy hot tea. It doesn't seem to overly cool a cup down when I use it that way and it seems reasonably dispersed and dilute enough not to oversweeten.

Love that stuff, especially iced! It's a milder version of Earl Grey mixed with citrus.

I've been a big fan of Earl Grey with or without a bit of honey. I just ordered a box of Lady Grey, it sounds wonderful. I'm a big fan of citrus-y teas, so I think I'll love it.

She has for a really long time.
I'm not a tea drinker, but I've tried it. I can see why she likes it.
