Do you know how to CORRECTLY add milk to your tea?

RE: Do you know how to CORRECTLY add milk to your tea?
I'm skeptical of that. I'm pretty repulsed by tea. I just can't drink it.

Meh.

I still force myself every few years or so to try mushrooms and asparagus again.

Tea's pretty varied, so you should keep an open mind. Wink

There are so many wildly distinctive varieties of tea that it makes little sense to dismiss them all as though they are the same. Darjeeling, Chai, Earl Grey, Lady Grey, Assam - each is as different from the others as snowflakes. The only one I'd advise you to be extremely ware of is Lapsang Souchong, unless your idea of a refreshing hot drink is the contents of an ashtray at a particularly unsuccesful antismiokers meeting dissolved in boiling water. Doesn't matter how much milk and sugar you use, the words 'acquired taste' have never before taken on a more ironically literal meaning.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

If your parents drank tea the way mine drink coffee, they drink shitty tea and call it good stuff.

I don't know how I came out with a European stomach from thoroughly American hot-dogs-and-cheap-beer parents.

Well, my parents were too cheap to buy anything substantial, but they always bought what looked like pretty decent tea. They didn't drink Lipton or anything unless they were hard up for a fix.

For me, the only way to win the game is to not play, because I'm lactose intolerant.

I did not expect this thread to take such a sophistocated turn.

I did say it's an acquired taste! Please stop staring at me like that!
