The last but not least - tea counts towards your daily water intake. I've been drinking a lot of tea lately because it tastes much better than water (let's be honest, water is boring and it's almost impossible to drink over 2 litres of it every day). A cup of tea is always fun to drink even when you don't add sugar in it (which I haven't done for year!) and you can get like ten billion various flavours. Water only have one.

Do you drink tea? What is your favourite type of tea? Do you prefer fruit tea or 'basic' green/white/black tea?
(I'm also planning on a post about my favourite types of tea one day.)

áno ale piť skutočný čaj, sypaný z obchodu s čajmi :)

a zelený nelúhovať viac než 2 minúty, lebo potom sa z neho začnú uvoľnovať toxíny

I don't drink tea, because I don't like hot drinks except for hot chocolate hehe. I love to drink water to I don't mind :-) xo

I'm jumping on the heavy-tea drinker label too! Heheh. A nice cup of tea is always good for a relaxing occasion :) At home I usually drink either fruit-, earl grey- or english breakfast tea from pickwick. Haven't got around to buy a press pot yet, but soon ! At my friend's place we always get all sorts of tea and the press pot just makes wonder :)
