Chinese do not put milk in tea.

The tea most Brits and American consume is a black tea.
In India if you flavor this tea with spices and herbs it is called Masala Chai and is usually " pulled" with milk.

The Chinese have hundreds of classes and varieties of teas From Pu-erh teas that are aged over a period of years, or roasted to accelerate the taste, Oolongs which have a cereal flavor, the " Ten Famous Teas" of China which are picked only during the latter weeks or march and first weeks of April. These teas are pale green and have an almost nutty/vegetal taste. Incredibly delicate.

Some of the trees used in making these teas go back hundreds of years. To the Chinese you are tasting the history of the area in those teas, the weather, the soil, the work or lack of it that was done each year is evident in the tea.
To add milk or sugar to some of these teas would be unthinkable.

Tea porn.

I'm so glad you're not dead Sir Frederick.
 
You would love some of these teas.

I'm so glad you continue to " egg me on" as my mother would say. :D

Egg you on? Throw yourself on my bedroom floor and I'll mount you faster than Lester Piggott in the St Ledger Stakes.

Make an omlette outta that fucker. :heart:

The amazing thing is, with all this wonderful sexual hyperbole, I never doubt your ability or willingness to do any of these things..and still remain a lady.


Well pretty much a lady any way.
;)
 
So you're one of those are you, butters? No passion about how one should enjoy hot caffeinated beverages? Pick a side, woman!

Clowns are weird and creepy, missy!
i take it as i fancy it at the time. whether that's a pale and delicately flavoured tea infusion or an almost orange stand-your-spoon-up-in-it brew with milk, or an aromatic rich coffee with milk or straight up black (with added tot of spirit on occasion), i just listen to what i fancy. no sugar. that is my side.

i mostly find clowns a waste of space, but there's been the odd one that has been a captivating act... more like old-school mime, russian i think.

See that sounds romantic, are you in love with tea?:rose:

Well at least you don't use sugar, thank goodness.

I guess a Russian mine would be okay. Better than a French one, anyway.

Being a gambler, I'll bet I appreciated that more than anybody else here, Fata. That's damn funny, and so British. English, even. Cheers.:D

I would have applauded it but for the extra 'd', which I assumed was a reference to accountancy I was too stupid to appreciate.

I was so busy laughing I didn't even notice. It is St. Leger Stakes though, isn't it? I was keying on Lester Piggott, who I remember very well. Hell of a jockey.

He attended the school I taught at until recently. Remembered as a nasty bully. But, yes, superb jockey.

He was. My Dad was always banging on about him or Pat Eddery. Huge horseracing fan.

Really? Well, I remember he went to prison for a bit. Tax evasion, I think. Came back and rode again. Won some more big races. Won the Epsom Derby, I think. I know he won it several times, at least. Well that's what we call it in the States. I think you just call it the Derby, like we do the Kentucky Derby.

Anyway, that's interesting. And your comment was funny also. Just not as funny as Fata's. :D

Yeah, both really good. Piggott was a little different for a European rider. Different riding style. But anyway, thanks for the laugh. :rose:
 
Haha, yeah that one is taken.

How about the folks against dairy abuse of caffeinated beverages?

It took me a few hours and a little sleep but I finally came up with a crappy acronym for our anti milk political party

Board for the
Abolition of
Non-consensual
Milk
Insertion and
Lactose
Kaffee-klatsching

Damn I need to be on Madison Avenue in a power suit.
