What is the difference between tea and coffee caffiene levels?

Posted by Guest on Jun 25th, 2010 | one comment

Are they close to the same? I want to get away from coffee, but without caffiene, I get horrible migraines. If I substitute with a mug of tea every day, will it be enough caffiene to alleviate the headaches? And no, I cannot take caffiene pills or energy drinks, as I have a bad kidney that I’d like to keep for as long as possible…

Is there any kind of iced tea or green tea that is vegan?

I know that green tea has honey in it, are there any teas that are vegan? Is crystal light tea vegan?

Thanks!

Hot tea drinking, what and where should I buy?

Posted by Guest on Jun 23rd, 2010 | one comment

I am brand new to drinking hot tea, I’ve have always drunk iced tea but a friend of mine suggested that I try a loose hot tea. I was wondering what is a good brand of OP tea with a citrus flavor (preferably) and what is the best website, tea wise and money wise, to buy online. Thanks.

What's making my tea turn a different color?

I’ve switched brands of bottled water and got a new kettle. Could it be minerals in the water changing the color of the tea? It’s a nice shade of green while it’s brewing, but as it sits and cools, it darkens and the color turns into a muddy green.
The new water has more fluoride and more mineral salts than the stuff I used to drink.

I'm throwing a tea party luncheon for my neices and friends' daughters. What should I serve?

I wanted it to be more than scones and tea since it will be near around lunchtime. I am requesting that all the "ladies" wear hats.

Any ideas for food, or fun laid back activities the girls might consider fun, but grown up? I don’t want us running around the yard in our dresses and hats, but I feel like I should have something to do for entertainment.
