Earl Grey is an afternoon tea!   I spent several years in the UK and my British neighbors and myself enjoyed coffee in the morning and tea in the afternoon... served in the traditonal way with on eor two lumps of sugar and a dollup of real heavy cream.....    dntn

Really liked sassafras tea when I was young. Step-father used to dig the roots, hang them in the shed to dry & debark & brew as needed. Can't buy the roots & I haven't found any on private land that I can dig up.

Can't find exact recipe but was called spiced tea, very simple-good on cold morning or sore throat!  Instant tea, tang orange powder, wylers lemonade mix and little cinnamon  just add a few tablespoon or to taste to hot water.  be something simple to carry bag on huntin mornings or camp

Russian Black Tea. A good green loose leaf tea also. I will hold my nose and drink Red rose, but I do not really care for Orange Pekoe/Pekoe blends. There are a lot of herbal teas on the market that are outstanding and don't taste like a hay bale.

I like nearly any tea, Wild or imported.  Sassafras is quite good, penny royal, spearmint, wintergreen,

As for the imported type stuff., I like Orange Pekoe, Chammomile, Oolong,  African red tea,     But my favorite is quite hard to find locally,  I am not even sure I can spell it right, Viet Namese Saipan tea, it is got quite some bite like ginger tea.
