Add sugar or honey to make it taste better and to bring out all the nuances. Brew it longer. Do like my brother and make a concoction lke this:
1x Peach Paradise lesbian tea bag 1x Echinacea and orange lesbian tea bag Measure of Summer Fruits squash Generous dash of orange juice 2x dessert spoons of sugar Boiling water to brew
Vile! [Btw. my brother is not a lesbian as far as I know - well, maybe all straight men are closet lesbians?]
I love my lesbian teas. Annie knows that I have a huge pile of them in my kitchen. And my decaf tea with soya milk, delish, yummy I used to be a huge caffeine addict but burnt out on it and had to go cold turkey....

Not sure about that, they'd have to come out as a woman first surely, no?
Some confusion here between sexuality and gender methinks. You may as well say that all gay men want to be straight women, or all lesbians want to be straight men, when what it's about is sexuality not gender, or is it the other way round?
I really enjoy lesbian tea. I drink wil blackberry and nettle from twinnings which is really nice. I also like redbusch tea which is actually quite like normal tea but naturally sweeter and less 'metallic'.

My flatmate here has a 1 litre teapot for her lesbian tea and has been observed disappearing off into her room for hours on end with its steaming contents: strawberry and yoghurt flavour I believe.
Come here for the lesbian tea and cakes! Live opposite a proper bakery, pesky cheesecake and doughnuts for breakfast...
Embarrassingly, I find myself really enjoying Evie's lemon and ginger tea, brewed for about four minutes with a spoonful of honey. It's still not a patch on the organic Arabica coffee I bought, though.
its a mere rumour.. I couldn't live with myself if any more people became addicted 2 the vile liquid due to an event i ran... coffee hours doing enough damage to the queers of today...

It's *really* nice stuff! I'm 'ard though, I dont need honey in my lesbian tea. The honey's in the fridge for anti-pollen-allergy properties. Need to get some more from the purveyor of many honeys on the road to Nostell Priory.
I bought some ASDA lemon and ginger tea the other day, 34p rather than 80 for the twinings stuff. I'll report back as to its effectiveness.
If you're feeling brave, there's some green tea in the left hand cupboard near the rice. Tastes minging, so must be beneficial.

I would be honoured to. If I can engineer my timetable, or skive, I will organise a lesbian tea tasting session to educate and enlighten the tastebuds of the caffeine addicts.
Oh, and the lightweight's Otley Run is more than a vicious rumour - there shall be tea and cakes (/pasties/pork pies) aplenty. I'll go for a visit in the evemobile to see what the venues are like, then set a date.

I didn't do this until last summer when my Mum's friend recommended I buy honey from Romiley Farmers Market (Romiley is where I live) to combat my hayfever. It really works. It is something to do with the pollen used to make the local honey is the same pollen you get allergic to. It really worked for me - just haveing a slice of toast in the morning with some on. I didn't take any piriton or anything like that all summer.

Yes, JohnK and Alice, you may indeed come and visit. I insist upon it! All visitors more than welcome, I have plenty of time and space to welcome my beautiful friends from Leeds, we can go to Flower Power, a pub round the corner with cushions and a flying cow. Beer's cheap as we're practically in Prague! Flights from Stansted to Leipzig/Halle in May cost 13 English pounds each way or if you're flying from up North you might have to fly to Berlin then get the Interconnex train - 11 Euros each way and not far.
As for visiting me in Paris, that will be excellent too, and maybe easier to get to? We shall have coffee and croissants, take a boat down the Seine and do the Picasso Museum. I just can't get enough of his papier-mache goat!
Anyone with time, money and inclination to visit most welcome then. Hop on a plane you beautiful people! Just check dates with me first. I'm here until the 29 July.
On the lesbian tea front, I'm on relaxing Honeybush, Chamomile and Blackcurrant at the moment. I'm a ce-lesbian, get me out of here!!
