I thought it was just me too with Lipton. I have used Luzianne this Summer & find it's great for iced tea w/ Sweet N' Low & use lemon or lime juice if I want. I like hot tea in the Winter, also.

I am partial to Bigelow and Yogi teas. I like nonfat milk in my tea, so I am very picky about which teas I am willing to try. I once bought cheap tea, and when I put the milk in, it curdled! NOT the best way to begin a day...

I've been drinking the Stash brand Chai Green tea lately. I love Stash licorice tea (great for after dinner). I think one of my all time favorites for a non-caffeine tea would be Celestial Seasonings Mandarin Orange spice.

I've been a tea drinker for many years. Hard to believe, but my favorite tea is a store brand. Yup - I admit it. I love this tea so much from Shop-Rite grocery store. I moved to Texas and we don't have any Shop-Rites here so everytime I visit "home" in NJ, I bring back boxes of it in my luggage. It's just the perfect taste and strength for me - - for like 30 years now.

I mentioned Irish Breakfast and English Breakfast in an earlier post. I feel the Irish Breakfast is a little stronger than English Breakfast. I also use Luzianne for iced tea (like Sheila Elaine). I have found there is not much difference between the decaffinated Luzianne and the regular, so toward evening I switch to decaf if it's "a drink alot of iced tea day"

eimay is correct. Irish Breakfast is a darker, more stout tea than its cousin, English which tends to be smoother and more refined. I prefer Irish... and Twinings makes a great Irish and English (as many others have pointed out.) PG Tips is one of my favorites for iced tea. It is Great Britain's Lipton, only way better! And, the triangle bags (which they have had for decades are cute...important when brewing tea...lol)
