About Tea

I really like tea. I drink it all the day. I prefer black tea to green and I don't like various flavors in it. I drink tea with lemon or milk and I put three spoons of sugar in a big mug. I tried not to use sugar at all and it was okay, but I didn't really enjoy the taste of unsweetened tea. Maybe one day I will get used to drinking tea without sugar.

Notes: I would leave black tea to green as common usage in English.

Green tea without sugar is good. I think that tea with milk is somewhat of a waste. There have been papers published in science journals as to whether you should add the milk before or after the tea is in the cup. Apparently there is a chemical difference between the two methods.

I still can't understand how the small bowls of green tea favoured in Chinese cuisine can stay so hot for so long. My mugs of tea cool off very rapidly. Tea was so expensive in England in the early 1600's that people used the cast-off leaves as fillings in cakes. That must have been fairly dry to eat.

Have you ever seen the tea flowers that expand when placed in boiling water ? Quite interesting to see.
