Aye Up Rachael,
Diversifying slightly from your OP but still relevant I think:
Have you tried 'white' tea?
That's not tea with milk but a
variety of tea. It is drunk with no milk (or sugar for that matter) - keep reading it's not like black tea!
I was introduced to it many years ago when a tea company rep explained it to me like this -
Bud of the tea plant - picked before opening therefore leaf suffers no oxidation = highest quality tea (very mild) = white tea;
Leaf of the tea plant - picked just after opening therefore light oxidation = next best quality = i.e. green tea;
Leaf of the tea plant - picked at stages after opening therefore varying degrees of oxidation = other well known teas;
All of that comes ahead of how the leaves are processed/blended which gives flavours/strengths etc.
Tea bags, he explained contain all the finings lost through the processing methods (sometimes swept out from within the machinery!) and which can't be sold as 'leaf' tea.
Apparently white tea (as above) has the highest content of ant-wotsits and is really good for you.
Surprisingly - I found that after being a NATO standard bloke for decades (milk and two sugars!) after only a short period of trying 'white tea' I was converted. I was told an interesting way to judge when the water was at the right temp before pouring it on the tea and I actually found that if you let the tea cool off a bit it is so smooth that you might think that you are drinking tea with milk. (It is a
million miles away from being as bitter as green tea). (Plus - no sugar means an extra biscuits too!). Chez moi we use loose leaf white tea but I have to confess that I do use white tea tea bags! when I'm out and about which are either emptied and burned after use or plakky bagged and taken back home. Notably you have to leave the bag in the water and brew it for an extraordinary amount of time before it becomes too strong to drink (way past the 8 minutes! that I recently saw recommended to get ALL the good stuff out of the tea!
Hope that adds to your tea expertise!
hehe. I don't have my tea strong (it's '**** weak' as my friend says), but that's extreme even for me hehehe.
) but the first infussion you pour away and drink the successively weaker infusions. Lovely stuff and though not cheap as you get a fair few drinks per mask of leaves it works out not too bad. You will need a pot with a filter of take a strainer though. Lovely delicate tea though and worth a try. Still have to disperse/burn/pack out the leaves though. At home they got spread onto my plant pots.
