    Hey mates,
    How do you drink you black tea? (If you do drink it)
    Let me know Smile
    For me, I'll drink it with milk and no sugar

    White and 2, though I tend to drink from big mugs so it needs the 3rd sugar to properly get in there.

    Doesn't matter if it's tea or coffee, I'll drink either and both the same way.

    I have started drinking tea recently, funnily enough and my tastes right now is Yorkshire tea with milk and no sugar.

    I guarantee you my tea usage will drop off when summer rolls around, but currently I'm enjoying it.

    I rarely drink tea, I'm more a latte woman.

    When I do I'm a complete heathen and have a cup of Earl Grey, Hot, WITH (horror of horrors) MILK!

    Edit - oh and I also enjoy a nice spiced chai every now and then.

    You know what, I have only tried Earl Gray once and it was at a friends house, but I actually loved it especially as this one had a citrus (orangey) note to it.

    I drink redbush tea with lemon and honey.

    I'd try Earl Gray though this happens when I order it:

    Where I come from there is only one way to drink tea - lots of sugar and on ice. In fact, we here in the South (US) do not even use the term "tea" without the word "sweet" before it.
