Desperate for some Canadian Tea in USA

[Carlawarla 1]

Try to order it from the links provided above. I was just in Canada and bought a huge box of Tetley. I've had other people tell me what "tastes like it...", but I don't think it tastes like it. I don't care if it's the best tea in the world, when you want a Tetley, that's what you want...and others just won't suffice. You could also just have someone mail you some down.

I was looking at the shipping with the link I provided and they do ship to the US.

Just if you live in the south I think they have to deliver it with the fastest method, heat problems and the like.

I know I'll most likely be ordering chocolate from it

I love this tea from England. It's sold here in our supermarkets, so have no

problems purchasing it. I had this tea in the UK and found it to be very good!

My husband who is Egyptian also likes it. The other tea we use is Red Rose.

Good luck and hope you can find your fav tea!!

The tea in the U.S. and Canada tastes the same to me, but I'm not a good judge on this. I rarely drank hot tea in the U.S. and even in Canada it's unusual for me to do so.

The one tea-related thing that bugs me in Canada is that I simply can't find unsweetened iced tea in any restaurant I go to. My wife makes unsweetened iced tea for me (and adds sugar to hers if she wants some). but otherwise, it's not something common at all here.

In fact, I once requested unsweetened iced tea at a restaurant and the waitress look at me oddly and then asked, "You're American aren't you?" Yeah, I am, but what does that have to do with whether or not I want sugar in my iced tea? Plenty of Americans like sweetened iced tea and I have trouble believing no Canadian wants unsweetened iced tea.

Nope, no Canadian wants unsweetened Iced Tea! Seriously though, you won't find it anywhere in Ontario either. It's one of those "American" specialties, hehe.

I would like some <raises hand> - but only because I went to an American High School overseas and got used to it. It's not a Canadian 'thing' - but it should be - who should we write to

1. unsweetened ice tea is disgusting. I'd rather drink green tea. Thank goodness they don't sell it in Canada

2. I also stocked up on PG Tips before I left. That's the tea I drank in Canada. I used to order it from amazon.co.uk because it's the kind my family and friends drink in the UK.

But, I don't use my kettle very much now so I have no use for it. If any one wants it, I will ship it for free.

Actually yeah, unsweetened ice tea is gross

I forgot to add we always put sugar water in it

I love unsweetened iced tea, I add my own sugar to it and it just tastes better than that powdered #######.

If you put your own sugar in it, then i COMPLETELY understand...

If you just drink it like it is...YUCK. It's cold tea!

I do. I've always had iced tea without sugar. That's how it's commonly served in Houston. If you want to add sugar, that's up to you, but they don't automatically toss it in. Sweetened iced tea is often referred to as "sweet tea" in order to differentiate between the two.

UGH YOU NATTY BOI!

Deadpool, I'm not 5 years old and I'm not THAT foreign. I'm completely aware of what sweet tea is...some times I think you think we are just a bunch of Canadians who have not gotten used to American life at all. I've lived here for 3 years..sweet tea is something I have come across a few times.

UGH YOU NATTY BOI!

Are you drunk?

[Sprailenes 47]

God no, it's only Thursday dear!
