Just made the missus a cup of tea.....no she didn't just want normal tea it had to be one of the bags out of the presentation box someone had given her. After ten minutes humming and hawing she finally decided which one to try.....Cranberry & Sanguinello Orange.

Anyway it got me thinking. I had a look at my last BA F menu and found that BA seem to offer their passengers more of these odd concoctions than they do normal tea varieties.
Peppermint, Lemon, Ginger, Blackcurrant, Ginseng, Vanilla, Camomile are all offered in First. Do BA feel they need to be hip by offering these ghastly things or are there people out there who actually enjoy drinking the stuff?

Hotels also offer them on the complimentary tea tray....now you're lucky if you get one Tetley amongst the horrors.
