The only tea that I have found which resembles anything approaching tea �back home� is Lipton�s Yellow Label Black Tea. It�s not great, but with milk and sugar in it tastes alright, just Rolling Eyes I need a good tea while I am watching my English football Saturday and Sunday mornings!

Has anyone found a good black tea in Mexico? Maybe we should join forces and set up a Marmite & Tea importation business Very Happy

Loose leaf tea made in a pot...let's show the world!

It's strange that people round the world think of Lipton's as being typically British, when it seems to be mainly for export. We need to get in touch with Brooke Bond and Tetleys. (I believe Tetleys is a brand of Cadbury, who have a presence in Mexico)

I currently have a stash of Twinings but I'd kill for some Tetley, or Co-op 99s - do they still make those?

I've see Twinings Earl Grey at the Superama, but I am not sure that I have seen at Tetley there.
Reddevil, seeing as you're in the Mixteca, you might need to head into Oaxaca and hit the Costco or something like that...

I too have great cravings for a good cup of tetley's tea! What I have found doesn't even come close, though I think it also has something to do with the milk tasting slightly different here.
If anyone does find Tetley it would be a treasure!
