Looking for any kind of tea that tastes real good. Do you know of any brands? Seems a lot of tea I have bought at Kroger's doesn't have a strong taste at all.
Tea flavor.

I like Earl Grey myself. Like the added flavour of bergamot.

Raspberry Zinger is a great herbal tea from Celestial Seasonings. Constant Comment is amazing, from Bigelow.

I think that my favorite is the Earl Grey tea, but I do also like the Constant Comment, and also their mint tea. Since we have lots of mint, I usually just pick some fresh and add it to any regular tea that i am making .
I bought a start of chocolate mint from ebay, and once it starts spreading, I am looking forward to trying some of that in my tea and my coffee, too.

"Tastes real good" is about as subjective as you can get. 
I'm personally not a big fan of flavored teas. For everyday regular tea I find that Tetley British Blend has more tea flavor than most. For decaf I drink PG Tips.

I normally drink ordinary supermarket black tea in bags for around $1.99/100 bags.
Growing up it was always Red Rose or Salada. I enjoyed Salada for the little messages on the teabag tags as much as the tea itself.

I used to drink red tea I bought at a bulk tea store. Naturally sweeter than regular tea.

Try Bigelow and Stash teas. Look at what varieties they have in your local store.

Also, I steep my tea much longer than the directions say. Plunk in a bag and wait till the water has cooled enough to drink comfortably (20-30 min).

My favorite tea is Double Spiced Chai from Stash Teas. It's very flavorful if you like spices.
I always try to get Celestial Seasoning's Gingerbread tea when it's out during the holidays, but didn't get any this year. I usually have enough to last me through the year but don't have any this year. I sometimes drink it by itself and other times I make it with either the Peach, Cherry or Berry Celestial Seasoning's tea and to me it takes a little bit like a fruit cobbler in a cup. I will also use their Vermont Maple Ginger tea with the fruit teas for a similar experience but it isn't quite as good as the gingerbread tea.

I stick to Lipton. I enjoy flavored teas once in awhile but get tired of them before I finish the package. I also steep mine much longer than recommended.
When I was a kid in the 50s there was a liquid tea you could get in a bottle. It was sweet and syrupy. You just added a bit to a glass of water. We always had a bottle in the refrigerator during the summer for iced tea. I think it was called White Rose, not Red Rose.

Red Rose is my absolute favourite but I am also really fond of Presidents Choice orange pekoe. I also like Stash Lemon teas as they seem to help with digestion issues. My daughter just bought me some David's loose flavoured teas so I'm going to try those. Both the Presidents Choice and Davids tea are well known Canadian brands but I don't know if they're available elsewhere.
