@jk I drink tea without milk or sugar. So Darjeeling, Mint, but mainly Tumeric Chai

@jk from the colonies 😂
@jk some british friends came to america for the first time and were looking for milk to put in their tea and they were absolutely BEWILDERED by the fact that the colors of milk caps in the US didn't match with the UK.
and tbh I feel that.

@jk Black, tea. X) Its Assam. I'm from northern Germany. We have three cities were the tea is mostly packaged and each person normally has their favourite brand. We are using the one from "Leer" nowadays since someone told us it works better with harder water.

@jk im american but i drink tea every day. its store brand black tea dust in a tagless bag from a box of 100 for ~$3. its probably the stuff they sweep off the floor after theyre done packaging up the nicer stuff lol i leave in my mug as i drink it. no milk, no sugar, just tea.
