>First of all, let's talk tea. The British do not know how to make tea. What they call "tea" is a travesty. There is no polite way of putting it. They just suck at making tea. Yes, they have built a splendid ceremony around what they call "the afternoon tea" but at the centre of the ritual is a nonsensical disaster they make with a beautiful and miraculous herb about which they do not understand the most basic facts.
>Here comes the next calamity of the British, which is flooding their wretched tea with milk! What a total horror! Milk rudely destroys the delicately combined comportment of colour, aroma and taste of any decent tea all at the same time.
>The few precious words that my generous Al Jazeera editors afford me do not allow me to talk in detail about the most precious of all moments when you actually drink the tea in the company of a small piece of sugar cube you strategically place in the corner of your mouth for what we call dishlameh or ghand-pahlo, the exact antithesis of the criminal atrocity of the British saturating their tea with merciless spoons of sugar, poisoning the wretched tea they drink.
>Be me >Working on a cargo ship when we transited the Suez canal. >All the Egyptian workers who came on board temporarily for the transit kept trying to steal everything. >kept plaguing me for teabags >Id give out teabags as we had plenty to go around. >They would rip the bags open and poor the tea into a cup with 5-10+ grams of sugar. >try to explain that the tea in the bag is different to granular tea and they arent meant to drink this way like fucking morons. >they don't care.
Pfffttt. A non-brit telling brits they dont know how to drink tea. Considering the Brits brought wide spread use of tea to the anglo-western world. They subjugated and conquered half the world for shit like tea and spices, I think they're in the right to use it however they want. Just because its parts of your culture to drink tea a certain way doesn't make you any sort of authority, fucking moron.

whats wrong with that?

cool, any good stories?

This. Now excuse me while I go cry and rage over captain marvel and Gillette commercials.

>All the Egyptian workers who came on board temporarily for the transit kept trying to steal everything. Sorry about that. Also Egyptians really like their tea loose for some reason and most drink it with at least a teaspoon of sugar. t. Egypt

How is estonia (Assuming this isn't a vpn)?

East Friseans have mastered the art of drinking tea. They boil it and serve it in a cup with a piece of rock candy placed on the bottom. If you carefully add a cloud of milk in the middle you get a rich and complex tea expirience that is truly unique: the top lets you taste a powerfull blend of tea aromas. After a while, you reach the milder middle of the tea, which adds the milk aromas to the blend. The bottom gives you a neat sugar rush as an additional reward for carefully assembling the tea in such a way. The tea blend itself runs on 20 different black tea herbs, which create an interesting and rich aroma together.
The east frisean are truly the best tea drinkers out there.

I love a cup of tea me.... With a splash of milk and two sugars of course.
pretty comfy. >people are closed off but polite >estonian men are just as manly as anyone else >autism is not that prevalent >the e-society meme is real for the most part >few colored people, you see a few every time you go out, but a few years ago seeing a black guy in the city was like seeing a flying pig >local russians act like niggers but are brotier if you are nice to them etc

Milk with breakfast tea is good but sugar is for plebs.
Zachary Parker
this is absolutely true the main reason is that it's light roast in my post you'll see I prefer very dark roast
Landon Butler
For me, it's a singular Yorkshire Tea teabag, stewed, and then a small dash of whole milk.
>Here comes the next calamity of the British, which is flooding their wretched tea with milk! What a total horror! Milk rudely destroys the delicately combined comportment of colour, aroma and taste of any decent tea all at the same time. What is matcha?
Jaxon Taylor
Its all good man. I could see that everyone's work prospects were fairly poor because of corruption so it was basically every man for himself in order to subsidize there income. I met a couple of cool Egyptians though, who were pretty based.
David Gutierrez
Yeah. Ive a good few, wouldn't really know which to talk about. I remember that after we left the canal that time we were going to French Reunion and just as we passed by Yemen a ship 24 hours behind us in the convoy got attacked by pirates with rpgs and stuff. It was pretty bogey at the time

I have an earl grey with a tiny bit of sugar and splash of milk in the morning, then rooibos or a standard black tea in the afternoon, and finally a black cream of earl grey in the evening.
lol in 100 yrs or less the brits will be reminded everyday of their deeds.

>On May 8, 2018 Dabashi tweeted, "Every dirty treacherous ugly and pernicious act happening in the world just wait for a few days and the ugly name of 'Israel' will pup".
>Dabashi wrote that when Bollinger made these comments, "Nothing short of the devil incarnate, the Christian Fundamentalist in Bollinger thought, was sitting in front of him" and that Bollinger's "shamelessly racist" comments were "replete with racism."[31][32]
>In 2006, Dabashi sharply criticized Azar Nafisi for her book Reading Lolita in Tehran, stating that "By seeking to recycle a kaffeeklatsch version of English literature as the ideological foregrounding of American empire, Reading Lolita in Tehran is reminiscent of the most pestiferous colonial projects" and accusing her of being a "native informer and colonial agent."[34] In an interview with Z Magazine, Dabashi compared Nafisi to former American soldier Lynndie England, who was convicted of abusing Iraqi prisoners at Abu Ghraib."[35][36]
I just made a tankard sized flagon of tea for myself with a quart of milk poured in before the hot water, two bags of earl grey, and three teaspoons of sugar, let steep for seven minutes

>asians know dick about tea >the idea that you have to have it one way is incredibly pretentious >OMG have you tried this new gluten-free chocolate-espresso-soy vegan IPA microbrew!?
I thought it was just the British that have tea with milk, but seems south Asians, as well as most of the anglophone world (USA not included), also enjoy it
>Al Jazeera could not care in the slightest how they think i should make tea
Landon Adams
Al Jezeera is owned by the government of Qatar...
>Under the provisions of Qatar's sponsorship law, sponsors have the unilateral power to cancel workers' residency permits, deny workers' ability to change employers, report a worker as "absconded" to police authorities, and deny permission to leave the country.[27] As a result, sponsors may restrict workers' movements and workers may be afraid to report abuses or claim their rights, which contribute to their forced labor situation.[27]

Has nothing to do with the topic, silly Brit.
Stop stealing other countries food and culture in general, you filthy thieves.

what do you expect? british people uncultured swines. the only reason why they even got tea is because they stole it. they had never culture or history so they steal and pretend. naturally it doesn't workout because it's not organic.
