black, no sugar, no nothing, leave the bag in there until it talks or doesn't move anymore
This is the way. But milk teas and boba tea is pretty good for a tea mix drink.
How do you take your tea?
"Well, usually I take it right back to the counter, because someone's made a horrible mistake." - Ted Lasso
Tea, Earl Grey, Hot.
(small amount of sugar, Sorry Cap'n)
I have something to say that will change the way nearly every American on Lemmy will perceive the world
I dont like tea... and I'm a brit.
hot, straight, not oversteeped, served in a small Asian-style teacup without handles
Green, any herbs in are fine, no flavorings.
I mostly drink either a strong black tea blend (something that is neither too malty or astringent) with a bit of milk and sugar, masala chai, or a Chinese green tea like a Tie Guan Yin or a jasmine pearl.
I also love a good bubble tea, usually a simple pearl milk tea with less sugar.
Sweetened, doesn't particularly matter with what. Though I think my favorite has been a honey/citron/ginger tea from Costco. No caffeine, but the flavor was immaculate.
Earl Grey, hot, nothing added.
Depends on the tea. Black tea with a little milk is the classic, bonus points if loose leaf
In the harbour.
Black tea is good, I leave the bag in the whole time
Classy with the pinky up.
Preferably liquid, but I wouldn't say no to solid or gaseous forms. Would probably not try to ingest it in plasma form.
Not German. I mean that. Any black tea you drink in Germany just doesn't mix right with milk. The colour goes grayish and you taste more the milk than the tea.
English black tea mixes impressively well with milk. Breakfast Tea, Yorkshire Blend, hell, even Earl Grey -- the colour goes a deep vibrant brown and the tea taste and effect is intensified.
I'm neither joking nor exaggerating.
Hot. No sugar. Black as my heart.
Yes I was an emo during my teenage years, how did you guess?
Mostly black, but after living in the UK for awhile I got used to doing a touch of honey and/or milk.
I of course have a deep love for coffee, I am always trying to get myself more into tea but usually it just doesn’t do it for me.
I do like green tea quite a bit though.
Any recommendations for non-dairy milk that goes well with black or green tea?
Earl Grey with honey and oat milk. Orange Pekoe/English Breakfast with sweetener and oat milk. Chai with milk. Or a straight herbal tea
Depending on the tea, usually I like it plain no sugar, no milk. But I do make chai almost everyday with 2:1 milk to water and some ginger or cardamom depending on what I feel like. Also a fan of milk teas.
White tea. A blend of jasmine silver needle (floral, fragrant) and darker mou shei to balance it. Plus ginger and lemon zest.
Large cup, ^4^/~5~ black tea, ^1^/~5~ milk and a small spoon of honey.
Strong black tea with a wedge of lemon (but I messed up my teeth so now lemon would make them very sensitive).
Personally, I only drink iced-tea. I just can't handle bitterness at all, and I prefer cold drinks to hot ones anyway.
I've found Peace Tea is the best, but its kinda expensive, so I tend to buy those big tubs of GoodHost IceTea powder and make a jug of the stuff every couple days.
I like mine bitter, idk why but I like water that's bitter but hate bitter on everything else
Milk and sugar. In the UK they'd refer to it as "builders' tea".
Depends how many sugars. At least three heaped teaspoons should qualify, two is borderline.
Straight from dried leave to water.
Rarely with additives.
Good leaves on the right temperature. Nothing added. Tasty, healthy, and calorie free.
Unless making very specific a milk tea, then add milk. Don't do it too often, it ruins the last 2 points mentioned before.
I'm not a huge tea person but I've always liked the celestial Tiger tea with milk and honey
For most of the year, Assam (loose leaf) with a splash of milk; when it's available, first flush Darjeeling.
Depends entirely on the tea, but, if black: at home it's usually hot, with a half to a full teaspoon of raw sugar and a splash of milk. At work it's usually just hot and straight, no sugar or milk. If green: hot, sometimes honey and lemon, usually just straight. If herbal: hot or chilled depending on the temp outside, no sugar if hot, a bit of sugar if chilled.
I drink a lot of fuckin tea.
Strong, with quite a lot of sugar, and only a little bit of milk, so that the tea I end up with is a chocolate color 🍵
I was going to make a joke about this being a trick question, as caffeine is poisonous to lemmings, but my preliminary research suggests that rodents and humans have a similar tolerance.
Up the butt, same as everyone else /a
(Actual answer: with a bit of honey and sometimes milk)
I like my tea red with a taste of fruits and natural sweetness
Twisted.
Black.
2 decaf and 1 caf Lipton bag in a pot of boiling water, let it steep for 10 minutes or so, then pour the lot over ice into a gallon pitcher and fill it up the rest of the way with cold water. I then pour it into a glass of ice and drink about half a gallon a day.
