I have a load of gree tea that I need to drink and its the strong stuff.

My wife’s English, and were enjoy a cup of tea when I get home from work. We take it with half and half and sugar, and we unload our day with each other until we’re both smiling and having fun together.

It’s damn near perfect.

Yes. For green tea, I steep for 2.5 minutes at 170 degrees Fahrenheit. Higher temperatures or longer extraction times make it taste really bitter. For the longest time I thought I didn’t like green tea because I’d boil water and then leave the tea to steep until I remembered it. That method works fine earl grey and any herbal tea. But green tea is special.

Right. The other half of your question. I’ve always liked tea. Idk.

I love hot chai tea with creamer. Better than coffee imo. I also make Jamaica with sugar. It is supposed to lower blood pressure.

I bought a tea set and tried to get into chinese tea and I hate it. The loose tea is good quality, the tea cups are excellent but even with sugar, I don’t like it.

You rn

Chai tea in English refers to a generally similar blend of spiced tea. Stop pretending to be an idiot and not understanding that. You’re not smarter than other people for knowing trivial information about the origin of an adopted word.
