Black tea is great, but I want to remind users to never use any tea bags whatsoever. These days they all partially have plastic in the tea bags which is extremely harmful, also triggering much acid reflux. Loose leaf is the preferred way.

This is surprising considering the premium green and matcha tea is sold at.
