I swear that the next time I order tea over here and it´s served with the T bag ON THE SAUCER - INSTEAD OF IN THE BERLEEDIN POT OR CUP I´ll stamp my foot!

Spread the word - T BAG IN POT - THEN BOILING WATER ( not luke warm) ON T BAG.

I feel for you Melders, there is nothing worst than a bad cuppa, I should know my wife makes em like dishwater.

Teabag in cup, boiling water on top, stir, LEAVE ALONE

Stir again, Add milk. Stir and take bag out.

Its not rocket science is it lol

Too right,Karl... it´s not rocket science is it!!!

Lisa ... the only other acceptable way a lady can make tea is if she is in the nuddy.... then it can be made whatever way she so wishes.


Marg .. if your chap ever gives you the elbow - give me a call.

[xLisax]

Haha..

Well..

I put teabag into cup.. Sugar next, if disired, then i pore boiling water into the cup.. then i stir.. stir...stir... squeeze teabag.. dip and squeeze.. repeat this some more then i take out teabag then add milk!

I make mine the same as Karl's. Hubby puts milk in first - which instantly lowers the temperature of the hot water you're pouring in... which in turn means he serves insipid gnat's pee, instead of a good strong cuppa that you can stand your spoon up in.

Not that I drink a lot of tea these days, because I'm still not used to the milk, even after 18 months! I only like the milk in a Strawberry Kaba milkshake, or hot Cloa cao. Do you guys get Cola Cao and Kaba in Tenerife too?

Lisa, baby, I'm with you on this one. Loads of dipping, dunking and squeezing.. so that all the flavour and goodness floods out...

[Elle1971]

Cola Cao is chocolate milkshake powder, and the popular brand in Lanzarote (oh, and Madrid when we were there... because they all knew what I was on about). I like it made with hot milk! Yummy!

Strawberry Kaba is a powder too, and tastes exactly like Strawberry Nesquick. Because I need to drink lots of milk, yet can't abide the flavour of the local stuff - these are easy ways to get that calcium into me (note I said calcium and not protein - I'd be leaving myself open for jokes then lol)

Elle,

The way you discribe Cola Cao and the way YOU make it with hot milk sounds like Drinking chocolate we have here.

And the other as you say is like strawberry nesquick, we can get that here although I remember from yeara gone by it was VERY sweet tasting........ yuk !!
