Teapots, mugs, and other things of that nature that are amazing.

It's ingenious, I always forget about cups of tea until they're undrinkably strong.

I don't drink tea often, but I have developed a taste for Earl Grey, especially with a bit of lemon juice mixed in. I don't have anything fancy, just a pot that holds four or five mugs worth of water, plenty of mugs, and a few japanese-styled cups (you know, no handles, calligraphy-style painting on the side), but I don't drink from those since they are so small.
Iced tea is pretty much the definitive taste of summer for me, my mother makes a mix of peppermint and black tea, sweeten to taste (sweet tea is the one true tea).
edit: Oh, I always drink tea from bags, I think I had leaf tea once, but that was when I was four or five, don't remember it other than how we finally got a use out of that funny-looking utensil in the drawer.

I drink this type called Red Label from Lipton that is only sold in Indian grocery stores, as far as I have seen. It can be extremely bitter and you have to drink it with milk (we make a big deal about the type of milk we put in it too). But if it is made right, with the correct balance of milk and sugar, it's absolutely delicious! I like most types of herbal tea and earl grey as well, but most black teabag teas taste horrible to me; they don't taste as nice as loose teas, and they're a lot weaker!
I drink coffee when I really need to wake up/ punish my system, but it makes me pee too much and it makes my heart race. Basically, I only drink it at college because teabag tea doesn't have enough of a kick and loose tea requires too much fancy-pants equipment. As far as I'm concerned, a frappucino is basically like shoving a bunch of ice cream down your throat. Tasty, but not that good if you want to focus. And I always find tea pretty refreshing, even when it's hot out.

Undrinkable? Maybe it's just me but i prefer my tea as bitter as a double edged sword.
