Yes you can drink tea in many ways to give it some flavour. Some even need to "soak" for quite some time before you get the right taste. Like herbs and the licorice like. Fruit tea can be very strong like mango.

I experience it sort of a full taste like a real mango/juice thats why its so strong. And I have also a bit of sugar in it.

I drink tea. Oooooooo do I DRINK tea! Where is that Romona Flowers gif!? xD Ive got a whole cabinet dedicated for my tea collection. I even use teas as a sustitute for stomach, cold, flu, and allergy medicines!

Let it steep a long time in hot water, add a little bit of agave or honey. I perfer agave because ot delicious! The berry teas are very flavorful, my favorite is a red hibiscous and blueberry tea you can buy in bulk from Whole Foods! Its tart with a berry aftertaste and the licorice roots make it slightly sweet! Im all about green tea or katcha everyhing- the taste is very bitter and is something you have to train yourself to like.

I tend to like herbal and green teas the best.  I would definitely suggest mint tea, which is really great!  Something I have not seen suggested yet in this thread is Rooibos tea aka red tea.  It has a really nice earthy flavor and in my experience can be steeped for as long as you want.  Just keep adjusting your steeping until you get to a strength you like! :)

I love tea!  Steep the tea longer with a cover on the cup. If it's a large mug try using two bags. I usually add a little honey.

Before I went all herbal I used to get Bigelow Vanilla Chai, and a variety of Stash tea.

Now I drink herbal naturally decaffinated. Yogi Peach Detox, and Yogi Bedtime among others.

If you'd like to try a fruity infusion, I'd go for cherry and cinnamon. Both are bold flavours, and they go well together. Cinnamon in general is a good choice if you like intensely flavoured teas. Combine with honey, and you've got a great drink for a cold autumn night.
