what a douche xp

Who spoils their tea with milk anyway?

*ducks*

People who leave the bag in the mug are monsters.

apparently I make my tea the tory way. not that I drink tea very often. that's how you know how strong it is!

Enemas: made of waterlogged tubes, unleashing waves of topaz-coloured effluent. Sounds like Lib Dems to me.

Well now wait a sec. You pour milk in then you need to check whether it's the correct shade otherwise you leave it for a bit longer then yes you take it out at some point.

the correct approach is to take the bag out of the box and put it straight in the bin bcz tea did brexit and tastes like garbage in every form

xp exactly

Loose leaf or gtfo imho.

justice for Boris! (not really)

mark otm, tea is shite

i like oolong, that's about it, hate hot drinks with milk in them full stop

Clearly you've never tasted white tea.

I can’t believe David Cameron is out canvassing in marginals! Who thought that was a good idea?!

it's a great idea, he should be out there 24/7 reminding the country what he brought to politics and contributed to the social fabric of the uk

I will admit to actively hating most traditional British teas (sorry).

you wokelord cucksters would have us drinking rainwater and chives, long live the empire (of tea)

Between this and the oven chips, he’s showing up himself as very common/basic bitch for an OE.

Tea prep: pour boiling water into clean mug, wait 30 seconds, discard water. Add tea bag, pour in more boiled water. Wait about a minute before removing bag with spoon. DO NOT SQUEEZE BAG, that’s declassé. Add milk to taste. SO EASY, EVEN A DAMN YANKEE CAN DO IT.

tea is foul and strictly for the olds imo

tbf the best teas i drink are at the house of a chinese client, everything they've served me, whether green/pale or mongolian milk tea has been superlative. there's also a cafe nearby that does a great gen mai cha

I think I basically don't really like tea any more but I drink six cups a day because I've got to do something with my time

Why is jasmine tea so hard to come by on this here isle? No wonder you pooh-pooh the stuff.

Hot is the devil’s temperature.

Coffee is foul and strictly for cunts. And the same goes for every tea but bog standard supermarket shite.

lady grey is the best 'English' one obv

osmanthus >>>>>> jasmine. find a chinese shop

I’ve been making a strong cup of Yorkshire Tea with full-fat milk and then adding a capful of rosewater at the end. I call this invention the ROSIE LEE for obvious reasons.

coffee is good

what is wrong with you all

find a chinese shop

Alas, I don't live in London.

you live in the london of the inner west

T2 is as good as it gets here. It's… decent enough.

I am writing this while drinking a really nice flat white, who says I’m not versatile?

After drinking coffee you have to drink something else just get rid of the taste and the stench on your breath.

literally found three Chinese chops in Oxford without even trying, even if some of them are pest-ridden

Black coffee is best (I'm sensing a pattern here).

Teabag into mug
Pour in boiling water
Add just the right amount of milk
Squidge the bag against the side (using a strong spoon) until the tea is just the right shade of brown
Remove bag

Am I doing it wrong then?

*BJ cannae maek a cuppa* is the logical end point of the blustering through the campaign I was on about earlier. I think not even a tea cock-up will change anyone's mind about voting for him tbf.

If you catch me drinking tea it means I'm either deathly ill and/or have lost the plot.

Nothing. xp

there's only one drink

it's buckfast

I learned my tea-making from a mad English scientist brought up in Edwardian splendour, and he would be apoplectic to find milk and bag in a cup/mug at the same time.

otm

xp

tea bores are the worst. who gives a shit

Pom, this place in Covent Garden will ship to you, can vouch for the quality of the tea

(I don’t drink black tea, but every so often will make one of these blends)

Thanks, much appreciated!

I'll try the pest-ridden version as well for comparison's sake.

In all seriousness, though, I think I'll try their pu-erh. It's been too long.
