Although Samantha likes both oolong and green tea, none of her friends likes both. However, all of her friends like black tea.

Summary
The stimulus can be diagrammed as follow:

Notable Valid Inferences
Samantha’s friends can either like green tea, like oolong tea, or like neither.

A
Samantha likes black tea.
This could be true. We don’t know Samantha’s opinion on black tea.
B
None of Samantha’s friends likes green tea.
This could be true. Oolong and green tea have a “not both” relationship, meaning that Samantha’s friends can like oolong tea, green tea, or neither.
C
Samantha’s friends like exactly the same kinds of tea as each other.
This could be true. It could be the case that all of Samantha’s friends like green tea and black tea, for example.
D
One of Samantha’s friends likes neither oolong nor green tea.
This could be true. Oolong and green tea have a “not both” relationship, meaning that Samantha’s friends can like oolong tea, green tea, or neither.
E
One of Samantha’s friends likes all the kinds of teas that Samantha likes.
This must be false. As shown below, we know that Samantha’s friends can’t like both oolong and green tea, and Samantha likes both of these kinds of tea.
