To put milk in herbal teas?

(Obviously not a serious topic!)

I have a very nice berry and chilli tea, but it's too spicy. Tried it with a bit of milk and it tones it down so it's still spicy but bearable. As I was putting in the milk I felt like a total heathen. I'm sure someone's going to drag me out and burn me at the stake for heresy! Grin

I do know someone else who does this, she puts milk in lemon, ginger and honey flavoured tea, so I'm not alone!

A London Fog is the best thing ever. On that basis YANBU.

Eurgh. 🤮

Milk in Earl Grey is the best, lemon slice? No thank you!

I had to look up what a London Fog is, sounds lovely! Smile

I put milk in my Earl Grey. Is that wrong?!

Nope! It's much better with milk.

I put milk in earl grey. Let it steep for ages too.

I don't drink them very often but they are delicious!

Milk in a nice vanilla rooibos is lovely. Knock yourself out - YANBU!

I thought everyone put milk in Earl Grey? No. Not everyone. I don't put lemon in it though. If it comes with a slice of lemon, I eat the lemon separately.

You’re a weirdo OP. But then I unapologetically ask for milk with my Earl Grey in swanky places, so I can’t pearl clutch. Tea should be drunk however you like it.

FizzyIce · 18/10/2019 13:25

Eww... I’ll bring the matches !
But it’s not even really the milk thing .. who wants spicy tea?!
