Few brits I know actually drink anything other than (what's known in the US as) English Breakfast, given any sort of choice. Apparently closest to a regular 'cuppa' you can get (or so I've been told).
- nly 11y agoUs common brits typically don't drink delicate blends like Twinings 'English Breakfast' all day long... we'll tend to stick with 'builders tea', i.e. strong unsophisticated blends full of tannins. Most people in the UK in fact probably drink Tetleys (from Indian giant Tata), "Yorkshire" tea (Taylors of Harrogate), PG Tips (from Unilever), Typhoo (another Indian giant), Lipton (also Unilever), or a generic supermarket brand.

- subpixel 11y agoAfter wondering what British tea was like for a long time, I did a little research and decided to try Scottish Breakfast. It's a little malty/toasty compared to standard English Breakfast. It's a huge hit in our house. My wife actually gave up coffee for it. And she's Colombian. I still do strong coffee in the morning, but Scottish Breakfast in the afternoon with honey and milk is a great new thing to look forward to. And by new I mean new for the last year or so.
