Mac, tea or coffee will give a "cream" tone to paper that's archival...
and different teas give different tones, so you can tint just about any
paper you like. But results depend on what medium you're working in. I
suspect some won't work as well once the paper has been wet & dried -- the
"nap" is raised.
