Ew. (Or - How d'you like your cuppa?)

Nightmare. Disastor! Our kettle has broken. So for me to have my much needed tea, I've started boiling water in a saucepan for it. I'm now drinking the nastiest cup of tea ever.

And to keep this thread more interesting and less of a boring rant, let's hear how y'all like your tea I like mine strong with a good bit of milk, but no sugar.

I like my tea with no tea in it, made with coffee

Heheh, coffee's good too! I'm a lover of hot drinks.

But not when they're rank like this

one sugar, strong. mmmmmmmm

Heh...same here, exactly.
I like the occasional cup of tea, particularly if I'm suffering a bad cold, but for everyday eye-opening consumption, give me coffee.

Coffeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Tea over coffee, please, and I do take milk and a single sugar. And I feel your pain jonny...saucepan tea is foul!

Mmmmmmm! Tea!
I'm posh. I have Lapsang Souchong, no sugar, tiny drop of milk. Delicious.

If I want a tea in the evening than I have that Rooibos (Redbush) stuff (no caffeine to keep me awake all night) or better still a hot chocolate with a dollop of whisky or rum.

You put too much thought into your drinks. Can't go wrong with a nice cuppa PG tips.

I'm more of a coffee person myself. But only my two cups in the morning or I'm zinging and unable to sleep at night.

I drink herbal teas during the day, with a bit of honey in them.

What does Wig Dog drink?

Ah, now that's a good question! The public demand an answer!

Also forgot to say that no cuppa is complete without a biscuit; Jaffa Cakes, shortbread or Cadbury's Chcocolate Rich Tea biscuits for me!

I'm more a coffeeholic but from time to time I like black tea with cream or green tea.
Btw...question for the Brits, what is the real "English Breakfast"-Tea made of? Guy complained once that the "English Breakfast Tea" he's getting outside the UK isn't the "real English Breakfast"... He explained in a german interview, that it contains "orange pekoe" and "black tea" (backtranslated) but "Black tea" is a wide spread area, isn't it??

Um, I've been instructed not to reveal any of the master's secrets as it may interfere with the whole evil plot/world domination thingy.

Lol, ok.

Tea. Bleurgh. I'd rather drink llama snot.

Coffee's pretty disgusting as well (except for Greek/Turkish coffee)

Mmmmmmm, llama snot.

Well i like my T chilled for a few hours, served in a nice tall glass with a wee bit of a head on it !!

and then a double dose of coffee in the morning !

Hey, we all like a wee bit of head. ( )

tut tut Dabamash!

Some pretty exotic answers here, I have to say I'm suprised how successful this thread has been! Can't be a coincidence; Elbow + Hot Drinks = One happy camper

This thread actually made me crave a cup of tea earlier today. I kid you not, I had to go make one!

you're all WEIRD.

Tea! Bleurgh!

No Idea. I just drink the stuff. Never thought about about how its blended and what with.

Twinings Tea may have the answer.

I just have Morisson's Red Label tea bags xD hey, student budget! Though every now and then I'll pinch one of my flatmate's PG Tips (he gave me permission but I still feel guilty when I have my own!), and that's about as adventurous as I get.

But I've just stopped with the hot drinks now till I get a new kettle. Saucepan tea was unbearable. I tried having a milky coffee today but it was not nice at all.
