Earl Grey
Earl Grey tea is anything but boring and typical. It can be any kind of tea with the addition of bergamot oil, a fragrant citrus fruit. There's even a legend surrounding the origin of the tea and it's name.
Avril Lavigne is not punk! She's not punk just because you say so...see how that works? (for James and his lack of posts)
So there Adam, Earl Grey tea is not boring!!!

The Earl Grey tea blend is named after the second Earl Grey--Charles Grey--who served as the Prime Minister in Great Britain in the first half of the nineteenth century. Earl Grey Tea carries a couple of legends about its origin. One of the legends involves Earl Grey’s servant rescuing an Indian rajah’s son from a man-eating tiger, and according to another legend, a Chinese nobleman--after his son’s rescue by the Earl’s men from drowning--served the tea blend to Earl Grey.
