How to you like your tea?

Strong and dark, just like my men.
How can you drink tea the colour of clay!? I thought Houses of Parliament brown was bad enough!

I make mine with one strong tea bag and leave it for about ten minutes. I might put a small amount of milk in, then again, I might not. I don't have sugar unless I'm ill.

I don't drink tea regularly but when I do it's got to be really sweet. So one tea bag, 3 teaspoon's of sugar and lots of milk and I don't allow it to cool so I do get a burnt tongue sometimes. :smile:

Assam in the mornings is weird. It's an evening drink.

Anyway, in most tea I have a little bit of milk and nothing else, having brewed it for some minutes. I have a little bit of milk in Earl Grey, too (haters gon hate).

edit: lotta people in here doing two bags to a cup. So decadent.

edit 2:



turns out 'lotta' was just you, now I've re-read the thread.



You got to have it nice and strong! aha :smile:

My favorite china mug. One teabag (i let it brew for several minutes) just a splash of semi- skimmed milk and two spoons of sugar. Always accompanied by some biscuits

That would entirely depend on the tea.

I'd have a tea like an Assam (for example) served with milk. Something like an earl gray for example however I'd have black.


No lemon?

I like my tea bag to be left to mash for ages then only with a tiny bit of milk. No sugar :biggrin:


So it stews? I don't like it like that its too pungent.

You'd like NHS tea. It's always stewed!

Milk, one or no sugar, depending on mood :P To the people who leave their teabag in when pouring milk: WHY?!


I know it bugs me too!

I like it peppermint flavour. Yum!


Heretic! It's not really tea!!!
2 sugars, a little hotter than what most would drink their tea. Oh, and I only drink green tea. Also, medium strength.

I like it made for me, strong and milky.
I usually drink chai with milk and one tea spoon of honey. I just leave the tea bag in while I drink it, I like my tea strong!

Not particularly strong, no milk and one or two teaspoons of sugar, occasionally with a slice of lemon. I always add a bit of cold water after I've made it so I don't burn my mouth though.

I only tend to drink tea after game of football. Weird habit i guess.
