My coarse palette can fortunately enjoy only strong green tea, and these tend to be the cheap ones. It's a good thing I can get a 7 oz bag of this stuff online for $3.50, since I drink a big thermos of it everyday.
I boil water in a teapot, then turn off the heat and toss the leaves right in, and let them steep for 3-5 minutes. Strong but not bitter. Gets me through the day.
