Tea. Ah, beloved tea. I used to dislike drinking tea, thinking that it tastes bland. Coffee used to be my favorite companion during my college days that I used as a nightly pick-me-up to help me finish projects that were often due the next day. For some reason my stomach now churns uncomfortably at the mere thought of me drinking that caffein filled drink. It turns my belly sour and sometimes makes it even painful.

I started to drink tea when I discovered the wonders of Earl Grey Milk Tea. It's really a wonderful drink that is quite addictive at times. Then I explored different variations from strawberry, peppermint, chamomile, lavender, rose, lemon, and my new favorite chai vanilla tea.

Tea not reliefs stress and is really good for the body. I like drinking it a lot when I'm sick with colds and sore throat. The hot simmering tea soothing and helpful. I heard green tea is also good for the skin and helps flush out impurities.

All in all, I love tea and I hope to be able to find new variants when I go visit Australia this coming July.
