Leaf tea or teabag?

I mostly use Teabags but i do want to know who knows how to use the Tea leaf

Teabags

Teabags all the way. The few occasions that I've used leaves have gone wrong.

i tried making tea from a spearmint and chocolate peppermint plant and i tore apart both of the plants. it still didn't work because i didn't have enough. gah!
i do buy loose tea that i put in a sieve type thing. it's stronger than bagged tea leaves.

Gotta use a french press. I use one for loose leaf yerba mate every day.

Both, but teabags are more convenient.

Always loose tea for me - it's less convenient but the difference in quality and taste is huge. If you add lots of sugar it will be less obvious so you might as well not bother .

The preparation depends on what kind of tea you like. For the regular black tea you need to bring the water to a boil, add one teaspoon of tea per cup, infuse for 3 minutes and then strain it.

Tea bags. I'm naturally clumsy and so I can really appreciate tea bags and the lack of effort required to using them.

I usually prefer loose tea, but bags have their place in my kitchen, too.

Tea bags mostly, just for the convenience. I prefer loose tea, but it's much more time consuming, & labor intensive.

tea bags since i don't drink tea that often loose tea seems like to much effort

Loose green tea, either jasmine olong or gunpowder

a minority opinion, but i like my tea pre-made [pre-brewed?], by way of Arizona Diet Tea with Honey, Lemon and Ginseng. yum.

Tea bags for convenience but loose leaf tea is always best when it comes to taste.

I much prefer leaf tea, but can normally only afford teabags.
