Chai with milk - no please, I'll pass. I have tried it once and didn't like it at all.

I have the two, on the same, day. <br /><br />I know, I know... I should never speak of this again. My wife is Japanese (hence the tea, green mainly), and I am Colombian (we live off of coffee)... and we both enjoy each others beverages very much.

Wherever I've been around the world I've struggled to get a good, strong cup of tea. It's the thing I miss most when I'm away. Oh no, just realised, I'm going the the US next year - disaster tea wise!Working Mumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16243697047355131343noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2545713293332836232.post-43115339692630001652009-10-11T10:52:13.726-07:002009-10-11T10:52:13.726-07:00I agree that teabags are a travesty, but they are ...I agree that teabags are a travesty, but they are indispensable in offices.<br /><br />Here's my favorite tea recipe from Britain's own George Orwell: <a href="http://www.george-orwell.org/A_Nice_Cup_of_Tea/0.html" rel="nofollow"> http://www.george-orwell.org/A_Nice_Cup_of_Tea/0.html </a>RMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16804809338465207073noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2545713293332836232.post-74042864044707524492009-10-11T06:53:08.682-07:002009-10-11T06:53:08.682-07:00S'true.

Although I have to say that if you DO get good tea leaves, heat the pot, pour boiling water over it and let it steep enough, the result is awesome. <br /><br />But I do like it with milk. And I would like to know how to make chay - post your favourite recipe?!Laszlonoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2545713293332836232.post-47527557528948497582009-10-10T21:37:54.503-07:002009-10-10T21:37:54.503-07:00I expected any answer from your dad... but the act...I expected any answer from your dad... but the actual one!<br />I guess it is always hard to adapt ourselves to new cultures, uses, habits. I admire people who manage to do so, and survive to tell others about that. Even better when a touch of humor is added, as you masterfully do.Gabrielahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03280432296207747625noreply@blogger.com
