Can't recommend a "dark" tea, but I get a bunch of tea from specialty shops around annapolis. I boil water then put the water in the teapot with a cage of loose tea. My personal favorite is a "Mojito" flavored one. The longer you leave the water in the pot the more flavourful it becomes.

Guess I should have specified...hot tea.

Haha what does "tea" taste like? The longer you let tea sit in the pot, the darker and stronger it gets. So just take whatever tea you like and leave it in there for a long time.
mAlice, you probably want an English breakfast tea. Stronger with a fuller flavor, and tastes like tea.

Any of the Elglish Breakfast teas are good
BJs currently has 100 bag packages of Biglow for $8.00
Twinnings is also good.

It tastes like tea, not mojito's, and I think that's the last post of yours I care to read. Guh.

To brew or to buy?
I don't recommend buying premade tea. There is a horrible shortage of potable tea in stores. I've discovered that this is a nation-wide phenomenon. 7-11's and Circle K's across the fruited plain simply lack the capacity to provide decent iced tea to the populace. You may sometimes get lucky and they'll have an ice-tea pot next to the fountain sodas, but as often as not, that tea is skunked. (Allowed to get warm and recooled ... tastes god-awful).
Your best bet is to buy teabags yourself and brew it at home. I get Lipton in the family size bags. You can control the strength yourself (I use 3 familysize bags for a nice robust flavor), and it's ALWAYS better than the crap they sell bottled in a store, which is invariably skunky or so sweetened and flavored as to be unrecognizable as tea.
Also if you like raspberry (or peach or any of that) flavoring in your tea, you can toss one small bag of flavored tea in with your normal teabags. This will give you a nice subtle hint of the flavoring, rather than the obnoxious overpowering crap you get in stores, which may as well be packaged and sold as "Raspberry Joose".

You don't get jokes?
You are not in the least bit funny. I think you should go the way of your twin, Andy Tardquis.
