I hummus, therefore I am ...
Coffee, on the other hand, always tastes better having been reheated in the microwave.

I like both. Tend to have it sweet at home on days off, non-sweet at all other times
Fuck that shit. Has to be green tea & bag dunked for not much longer than a few seconds.
Mine is rarely drunk hot - it hangs around all day.
I'll always warm yesterday's up for the first cup of the day though.
ymu ruined my life a couple of years ago by saying (on a similar thread) that the water should be poured directly onto(/through) the teabag.
I literally cannot EVER make a cup of tea without doing it this way now...even though I drive myself mad every time I do it ....'just pour the fucking water in any old way, FFS ....gggrrrrzzzzzzzz......omg.....' *pours water carefully over tea bag*
Milk in first is unconscionable. Impossible to gauge how much you need. You need the tea first, so you can see it lighten in. A rather delightful way until you have it just so
Please reassure me that the milk in first/last debate only relates to tea made in a pot. Nobody making a cup of tea in a mug would put milk in first, surely?
Nah! It's different every timeAfter years of tea making it becomes second nature to know how much milk you need.
I do and I remain unrepentant.
Really? I've never had any problem.Impossible to gauge how much you need.
This is a technique for allowing you to make tea in a mug and have the milk in first.I'm trying to imagine how you can pour a cup of tea without pouring it on the bag. Must take some effort
I am an absolute stickler for this. The order of stirring is:And if you have sugar, please DO NOT USE THE SAME SPOON TO STIR IN THE SUGAR AND THEN TAKE THE BAG OUT OF MY MUG.
Sorry for the shouting, but I tell people this, having pointed out that I know they did it because my tea tastes foul, and then they do it again.
That's either genius or something you just made up.1. Get huge urn. 2. Put two large scoops of black tea in said urn. 3. Fill with cold water. 4. switch on. 5. Add tins of condensed milk, black pepper, cinnamon, cloves. 6. Brew up for about two hours. 7. Serve.

And it's good?I once had a surreal 4am wake up call being shoved off a bus in rural India. While I waited for the connecting bus I watched the chai wallah at work.
You get both if you brew it double strength and add milk. Alternatively, have it standard strength without milk and treat it as a contemplative experience, similar to brewing and drinking jasmine tea.I'm puzzled by Earl Grey. Why destroy all that teaey goodness with perfume?
I'm a slosherReally? I've never had any problem.
chai is nectar of the godsAnd it's good?
Oh dear.I'm a slosher
