decaf tea

[snoobles]

I am trying to curb my excessive caffeine filled tea drinking habits now, before we get pregnant, so am having one normal cuppa in the morning and after lunch, but drinking decaf the rest of the time.

Ugh. It's horrid and tastes like cardboard!!

Anyone found a brand that tastes nice?!

I've been drinking tetley and I don't think that is very nice

When I drink tea I usually like to drink Lipton decaf tea. I found it not to taste much different from regular tea.

I have changed to decaf and don't mind it, I can't tell any difference really.
I drink Asda's own Decaf and also Sainsburys own (these are the best out of them both) and I also have tetleys

 

[snoobles]

ooh might try sainsburys own brand then

Haven't come across Lipton brand but may buy little packs of each and test em!

is it the tetley regular decaf or the redbush as the redbush decaf it awfull but the regular i cant tell the difference exept i have to leave the bag in longer the pg tips is quite yummy

I also hear those Tevania teas are great. I have never tried them but those stores are popping up everywhere. I am in the US, so im not sure if they are overseas.

If you live in uk try ringtons tea it's by far the best! Plus they deliver to your door free of charge it's a little more expensive than tetly and pg but I'm a firm believer you get what you pay for xxxx

I am a tea monster and only Yorkshire Decaff Tea does the job. I felt like all the other decaffs tasted of nothing and made me abit queasy (not morning sickness unfortunately!)

I don't like the flavour of most decaf teas, either (the PG Tips one is allright), but Twinnings decaf Earl Grey is WONDERFUL. It's expensive, but I'm addicted.

I always found mosty decafs are weak & horrible....but if you can get it, the decaf tea made by Barry's (an Irish brand) is lovely & strong and tastes like 'fat' tea

In our house full-caff is 'fat' and decaf is 'thin', be it tea or coffee

 

[mummy.wannabe]

i love decaf tea, ive been drinking it for a while coz work in a coffee shop and decided to try it, i drink pg tips and have had tetley too, i like it ad think its only got a slight different taste, ul get used to it x

thanks for the suggestions girls

I find stewing the bags helps a bit but will try a couple of different brands too.
