Seeing this article made me think about the many ways you can take tea. Some people like it with a lot of milk, or very weak with just a dip of the teabag. Some like it strong with a drop of milk. Then there is with or without sugar, not to mention lemon tea and the assortment of flavours you get nowadays.

I drink my tea black, and prefer green tea. My nickname in the is asbestos mouth, because I like my drinks very hot, scalding hot. It was one of the reasons I stopped taking milk. I also discovered I like the taste of the tea without it being diluted by something else.
