Harryonline: You know, I always thought you add Milk last

Apparently, the right way is, you add Milk first in to the cup and then add hot water (that has tea bag/s in it or tea from a pot)

I still find this strange. It was something I saw on TV where it was a true or false question.

I thought I'll ask Peachy our resident Tea expert/agony aunt.

Haha if I made tea like that for my mam or any of my family they would linch me,wow

Well before tea bags came out my nanna would pot few teaspoons in a teapot and stir and leave to settle with a tea cozy over it to keep warm,

Then tip the tea pot over and pour from its spout,laugh ,

I remember using leaves once and the water wasn't even boiled up properly ah it was vile milky cold tea with leave floating at the top,

Oh yes about the milk ,the rule in our house is to add milk last,I use tea bag in the cups now,one for each.coffee

Your taste buds is preventing you from tasting the tea as coffee is far stronger,flex .

Yes I found that tea tasted like a cup of scald as one of my ol folks used to describe the tea this woman made for him at the club, he said she just dips the tea bag in and out,

I had to make him decent cup I took time with the. Tea bag to leave in cup for a minite ,laugh

I do go with an odd coffee yes with the milk in stirred. With coffe but I poor the water.coffee

peachmelba: Tea is everything to me,,,if I'm sad,happy,,want to chat,,tired,to wake me up,

Relax,comforting its all in the tea,

Do you like tea and if so what is your favourite and how many cups a day do you drink.

Be honest it's good to share over a cup of tea.


Yes, I drink tea each day but not BLACK tea.
I drink mostly WHITE tea and occassionally GREEN tea. I drink about 2 cups a day.

Tea - the drink that changed America forever

This was the infamous Boston Tea Party, a protest against tea duties in December 1773 that sparked off the American War of Independence and so eventually led to the United States of America becoming an independent nation instead of a group of British colonies.

I do like a nice cuppahandshake
