do you like tea

what goes into a good tea

I am a simple man who microwaves water for his tea

I understand there are many other ways of tea

do you like black tea? or green? there are even red teas. there's bubble tea, but that's more like a weird smoothie.

great job, who ever translated that one

what's your favorite kind? I like earl grey. very fruity

do you ever use tea for other purposes? I understand there is a way of preparing eggs with tea.

    chai tea is so weird to me

    looks and smells and tastes like "gingerbread milk"

    I am quite a fan of tea. It is the best for when you need something hot with a little bit of taste, or can't be bothered with making a coffee. Basically just a fan of english breakfast, either black of with milk. Although I did have some fantastic tea when I was staying with my polish cousin. It was from India, loose leaved. Pretty fantastic. Also, tea is normally the best hot drink you can get for free in a hostel. Most other things are pretty crappy.

    I found a tea shop over here called Les Palais du Thes I think. I bought some fruity tea that has orange, lemon and grapefuit and other stuff in it. It's quite nice. I'm almost finished with it and will probably get a green tea next.

    I microwave water for tea and use a bag of earl grey that's past the expiration date and then I put mounds of sugar in it,

    thereby doing more damage to British culture than the blitz

    Using the microwave to boil water just seems completely weird. I don't even know the life choices that one makes that would get them into that position.

    It's like ten bucks man. You can get a one serving kettle. In variety of shapes.

    mine for example looks like a tea kettle.

    I like lady grey tea the best, it has an orangey taste that I find pleasant

    also roobios


    they come in little bags in little boxes that I buy from grocery stores and I use a little electric water boiler to heat up the water before hand

    Electric kettles as I understand it are not that common in the Americas.

    They are around but they run upwards of $25 in my limited experience

    i didn't know you could have a house without a kettle

    every kitchen has one in the same way as it has a toaster and a microwave

    Really?
    I'll admit I've never actually bought one I just figured a barebones kettle would be around ten bucks.

    I love tea. I go on tea binges and spend too much money on different kinds. If I was home more I'd get a lot of loose-leaf tea, but at work I use teabags

    Right now "my brand" is Yogi tea. I love the "Refreshing Mint Vital Energy"

  • LalaboxLalabox Registered User regular
    I do find that 'fruit flavoured' teas are normally some of the most disappointing things ever. They smell nice and that's it.

    That's been my experience. Usually I'll double up on the teabags or loose-leaf amount to get more flavor

    If you aren't paying attention, you can burn a stove kettle. And electric kettle will shut off automatically.

    Since Nerd is always playing ME3, he'd probably burn his house down.

    Black tea is pretty nice.
