Damn I was too late lol I was going to say "in someone else's cup. Mine will have coffee."

:P

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Sunned and dry on the rocks

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

I'm always cold so I've taken to making giant cups of herbals to have tea the whole day to keep me warm, no sweeteners.

I never put anything else in my tea. Except if I'm having a London fog, that's like crack for me.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Up the butt, same as everyone else /a

(Actual answer: with a bit of honey and sometimes milk)

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

With bourbon, honey, and lemon

[โ€“] restingboredface 3 points 8 months ago

Oolong, steeped in my tea mug that has a lid on it. Usually with some local honey. Mmmm

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

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 ๐Ÿต

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago* (last edited 8 months ago)

Either in the form of Hong Kong milk tea, boba, sweet lemon tea, or plain and unadulterated.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

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.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Peppermint. Justthe water.

Black tea, warm, with a small amount of sugar, and ice.

Simple but soothing

I don't like cold tea but I don't like it hot.

Think of it like putting ice in fresh brewed tea and drinking it right away.

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago

Not scorching hot like some girls do, what's wrong with you!?

[โ€“] [email protected] 3 points 8 months ago (1 children)

Iced and with a moderate amount of sugar

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago (1 children)

I need the acid to blend the sugar and tea together into a nice harmony. You can just add lemon. But I find a little ice tea mix does the job faster and easier.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Yeah I'm fine with the mix. Try fresh lime instead of lemon sometime.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

I like my tea red with a taste of fruits and natural sweetness

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

I drink a pot of camomile every day. 1st cup is still hot while rest is more lukewarm.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Straight from dried leave to water.
Rarely with additives.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Green tea iced and unsweet.

Black tea spiced with lots of milk and some sugar.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

sweeter side, type and preparation doesnt matter to me. I like switching up tea on the regular. (weekly tea routine is between 3 different teas that get swapped all the time)

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Black, no flavoring aside from the tea, brewed strong with a small splash of milk and 1-2 tsp of sugar for a large mug.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Couple minutes in the pressure cooker, and natural release.

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Black tea: either just black or with lemon and honey

Green/white tea: no additives

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

with LEMMon

[โ€“] verity_kindle 2 points 8 months ago

Looseleaf Russian Caravan. I can't find the right blend any more, the company that made it right changed the formula and it tastes weaker. It needs to be smoky and rich with a bit of red clover. Anyone know where I can buy this?

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

With Amarula as a treat

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 8 months ago

Black tea: some of my black teas are outright best with milk Otherwise: as is.
Also drink: Rooibos, white and green teas. All loose leaf, steeped the expected duration for each tea.
