should be milk first desu

you can only do that with certain blends. makes it more comfy, like hot chocolate. putting milk in coffee though is pretty grim though desu

Tastes great la

milk in the cup first, then tea bag, then microwave it, then add water to cool it down.

>british
>civilized

>microwave

Jesus...
it doesn't take that long to heat water in a kettle, you know?

based

Because it tastes better.

Tea without milk and sugar is like chicken without spices and sauce.

in finland those who like their tea sweet usually put honey in the drink instead of sugar

I've tried that, but you have to put so much honey in it to make it the equivalent sweetness.

Also, honey is more messy and takes longer to dissolve in hot water too

> microwave it

honey just tastes better imo
there are sugar cubes readily available at all places that serve tea/coffee so it's not like we don't put sugar in our drinks

sugar is nothing but a cocaine equivalent for retarded children

If you put the milk in first the tea does not brew properly, you fucking barbarian.

This. Milk first ONLY if the team comes froma teapot

I didn't even know milk first was a thing until I started browsing Jow Forums

>I like sugar
>sugar is nothing but a cocaine equivalent for retarded children
wat

Anyway I'll use a little for some of the more astringent black teas, but I actually make tea properly unlike bongs who just dump boiling water on teabags for 10 minutes then wonder why it tastes like shit

pic related is not the same as a naturally sugary product

Look at this fucking barbarian. Look at him.

>>appeal to nature
there is nothing natural about white sugar

> add hot water to cold milk
> tea brews in tepid water
This is common sense.

Except it being sucrose, an entirely natural product.

kill yourself

He's right, though. You can even buy raw sugar in the shops, it's virtually the same thing as just chewing on sugar cane.

>You can even buy raw sugar in the shops
And that's a good thing

You put half and half in coffee and it smooths it out. Not enough to save a bad roast, but it does cover up a multitude of sins.

>tea bag

Clearly not British.

Milk brings out subtle flavours that you don’t notice if you’re just having it black.
You only need sugar if you live in London, water down there is fucking diabolical

>Putting anything in your tea
You're all chidlren

I come from small town Ontario, and for the longest time I put milk in my tea and thought nothing of it, seemed normal and everyone did it. It was only when I went off to university and drank tea with milk, all the Chinese students looked at me like I was from another planet. I can get not putting milk in green tea, but common black tea... it just was meant to be.

We usually use maple syrup, honey is good too though
