Anyone for a brew?

It’s pouring with rain here and I’m putting the kettle on. How do you take your tea?

I like mine strong, so Yorkshire Gold or Barry’s if you’ve got it, brewed strong with a lot of milk. I have to be very specific because when you ask for ‘milky’ tea folk think you mean ‘weak’, and this is disastrous.

Earl Grey for me please. I'm on train with no buffet carriage due to lack of staff and I just want a cup of tea.

Decaffeinated tea with a splash of milk or a herbal tea.

Builders & as above. Choccy digestive if you got one. 😊

Medium strength, skimmed milk, no sugar.

Strong but milky in a pint mug.

Yep... strong and milky.
I find Tesco's Extra Strong tea bags work well for me, though I much prefer Scottish Blend Tea , which I can't get here in Kent.

Oh I'd love a cuppa and a chat. Milky tea and 2 sweeteners please!

My ds officially makes the best tea. He says milk first then leave bag in for approx 2 mins. No squeezing just a gentle swirl. I measured my milk and I use approx 90 ml of milk in a standard mug

Oops posted too soon!

so that's what I meant by my previous post of "lots of tea lots of milk"
