Usually not only for Chai spiced teas.
Tea spiced tea
Bag. Water. Cup. Nothing else. (Might push the boat out for a slice of lemon if I’m rolling with Eastern Europeans that day)
Cream! No milk. And I’ll use it with many flavoured black teas.
Earl Grey with cream and extra cinnamon, for example, was my favourite drink when going on a ski trip.
I still remember one time I went a date and I ordered sugar and cream with my earl grey. That poor girl’s face… :,D
Also Ireland has some very clear guidelines I the use of milk with tea. But they use unpasteurized milk, the Philistines. You get used to it, though.
Never put milk with green tea though. Ever. Or infusions. Not sure why but them is the rules.
A good Chinese black tea with evaporated milk and Equal is my jam!
Equal? :o
Tastes better than diabetes.
Chai? Milk.
Some other fruity spiced crap “tea”? Milk.
Actually just leaves and herbs steeped in water? No milk.
you don’t consider fruity teas as tea? :o
If it has no tea in it then it is just hot flavor water.
As an American I can’t imagine what would possess someone to put milk in tea. I understand if that also disqualifies my opinion in the matter.
