I drink it plain. No sugar even.

My sister put honey, sugar, and milk in hers. -Gags-

I'm a purist. I think sugar in tea is a crime under any circumstances.


On a different note, what are people's opinions on tisanes?

I've only rarely had them, I could get into them though. Probably. I can't help feeling a bit 1920's though. Very Poirot and continental.

Can't help that I've only tried them whilst in France.

They're pleasant, but I prefer -tea- tea.

Then lock me up and throw away the key^^. Cause if I have tea (Very rarely cause i am more of a coffee person) I have about 4 teaspoons of it.

Now this has been annoying me for a while...is Earl grey supposed to be drank with milk, lemon or neither?

I have it with milk but then I do think it tastes a bit funny and i don't really like it. But if theres nothing else on offer...
I do drink all tea with milk in. Mango tea should on no account be drunk with milk in.

Milk in Earl Grey is to be made a crime against humanity at the next meeting of the UNGA.

We'll take the movement underground! We know it's wrong, but it is our birthright!

I shall lead the Earl Grey with milk drinkers to safety with secret bordellos where we sit in dark smokey rooms surrepticiously pouring milk into our Bergamot teas.

Breaking news!

According to a recent publication in Nature, scientists have found a new power source. They are confident that attaching a dynamo to the grave of the Charles Grey could lead us into a new age of cheap power.

Can we use it to improve North American tea?

Earl grey is a crime against humanity! It actually tastes grey. I mean if the colour grey had a taste that would be it.

No. I'm sure it tastes beige.The yellowy more icky looking beige.
Still, tastes fairly bad.

But the underground movement still sounds fun.
I could go underground in the underground movement and secret swap my types of tea.

heart the earl grey.

I started to drink it to look more adult and sophisticated (at least that's what I imagined) and I didn't actually like the taste but it does grow on you and now I'm like- where's the earl grey?!

Oh and there's another - breakfast I think- very nice.

I don't get to buy those for myself cos they is to expensive for me and my poor studentness.


( ninja I am a covert milk in earl grey drinker too, I know it's wrong but I can't bring myself to drink it black; it just seems so...upper class.)
