last modified: 8 years ago

On the 11th day of Christmas we've got something quintessentially British for you - a beautifully blue Cornishware teapot! Dubbed the Large Betty Teapot, this is for those times when all you want is a cosy day in, snuggled up with a cup of tea.

To be in with a chance to win this prize, vote and comment telling us how many cups of tea you have a day! Whether it's 1 to 10, don't be shy - you're amongst friends! This competition runs until December 24th.

Just the 1

      I love tea. But not your standard black tea herbal or fruit teas are my thing. I love Pukka teas. My favourite is Peppermint & Liquorice. Lovely

    • Grace McCloud

      I virtually can't move, let alone think, until I've had a very strong cup of tea in the morning...and as I don't really like water, I drink tea all day at my desk. Probably about 10 cups per day... :)

    • Balbir M
      8 years ago

      At least 3 cups of tea and 1 cup of coffee a day

      It has to be about 4! Especially in these winter months and with December exams rolling in.... Long live the tea pot!

      I'm a new tea drinker! Until last week I didn't like the stuff but have suddenly developed an insatiable thirst for tea!! Would love a beautiful teapot to help fuel my new habit. :)

      We always keep about ten different kinds of tea at the ready... I'm loving M&S's vanilla rooiboos (sp?) for bedtime! Merry & Cosy Xmas everyone.

      I'm an Earl Grey lady who always takes it in a cornishware mug but sadly no teapot!

    • melhutton

      The first one is always the best one!

    • honeypoppet
      8 years ago

      Oooh...at least two...one to make me get up in the morning an another when I'm dropping to sleep at my desk:-) that teapot is really pretty! I have never had a teapot myself but have had tea from one at others houses and it's SO nice! Drinking tea has helped me get over drinking so much coke...I used to probably have at least a can a day but now I can go without for almost a week! We love tea!

    • msperiwinklejones
      8 years ago

      At least 5.. Does that make me a weirdo?

    • Debz
      8 years ago

      I drink the entire pot myself! Lovely teapot - where can you buy one if you don't win it?

    • Johanna Lim
      8 years ago

      There's some difference between cups of tea made and cups of tea drunk! I love the 'treat me' feel of putting the kettle on and making tea. With 2 babies though I rarely get to drink the tea! Making tea is all the me time I get!

    • Radhika Sethia
      8 years ago

      just the one camomile tea before bed time

    • Victoria Harrison

      I don't drink tea but with this lovely tea pot I'm sure no one would mind if I diversified and made my coffee in it.
    • sarkie

      There are conflicting reasons on what people say Britain was built on, but it has to be for the love of tea and with that the only acceptable tea is Yorkshire Tea.

    • Micheala Yelland
