I too, prefer tea (still Lipton Black with a dab of milk and a tiny bit of equal). I cannot use stevia or other kinds of non-sugar things...my sugar spikes with them! I also never got into cigarettes. I could not see the advantage of buying a pack of cigarettes (50 cents when I was in high school) and then burn them up when I could buy a paperback for the same price and re-read it many times! I was a cheap smart kid <grin>
Loved your daily diversion on tea! It was delightful to read about all of your memories and those of your parents!
I have a similar warm childhood memory of coffee "being for adults". Whenever I went to our Paternal Grandma's home she would give me a cup of coffee with cream and sugar. I love it!!
Now I'm interested in trying some of the teas you mentioned. My favorite drink is sparkling water. I love the fizz.
