Standard Lipton is a blend of Orange Pekoe and Cut Black. Cut Black is nearly coffee-harsh and Orange Pekoe is very light. The blend has a good balance.

I love Lipton's Green Tea with Honey.
I should post a recipe of how to make your own Chai, it's pretty good.

I would love to learn how to make these. Take a look at this pretty Latte Art:

You give yourself the runs? That can't be good.

Er... I mean... SECURITE ALERT!!!

</old RT joke>

The canned vending machine coffee they sell in Japan is really good. You wouldn't think it would be, coming from a vending machine, but it's so good that it's easy to waste a ton of money on the stuff without even realizing it. The reason for this is the fact that a 100 yen can of coffee only requires that you put in one quarter-sized, 100 yen coin... which actually equates to about 90 cents. That'll getcha. On top of that, drink machines are literally everywhere over there. Nice, eh?

My favorite brand when I was there was named, appropriately enough, Latte Latte. Good stuff.

Kevin! I had a friend who could not deal with caffeine too well. Coffee would keep her bladder 'too active'!

Well, caffeine is a dyeretic* (sp), which makes you go to the bathroom more.
