Just My Cup of Tea

Summer days in the U.S. South make the word, "sweltering," appear to be on the cool side.

However, as a youth relief often came in a tall glass of very cold and very sweet Southern iced tea.

As a child it was just my cup of tea.

Yet, as a man I have grown to cherish my time in the company of a cup from across the Pond.

Earl Grey has had my deepest respect for many years.

In the past year, however, he has had a bit of competition from Twinings Orange & Cinnamon Spice. To my taste buds Orange & Cinnamon Spice is the flavor of Christmas, my favorite time of year.

Orange & Cinnamon Spice is just my cup of tea.

Some day I should like to visit this land of my heritage in the merry old isles.
Maybe I'll get a glimpse of Her Majesty.
Certainly I'll plan to see Big Ben and travel to the White Cliffs of Dover, but as I disembark from the airplane I should like to hail the nearest taxi for a trip to Twinings on The Strand for a bit of tea time.

After all, that is my cup of tea.
