How do you have it?

I have mine very, very strong with 3 sugars. I love strong, sweet tea. And it has to be in a mug!

Like this. Strong, not stewed and in a white cup and saucer.

I'm just enjoying a nice cup now!

Medium strength and I like quite a generous amount of milk.

I don't have sugar unless I have a headache, which I do right now, so a sweet cup of tea always makes me feel a bit better!

It goes in dry and comes out wet, the longer it's in the stronger it gets
It comes out dripping and starts to sag
Its not what you think It's a Tetleys tea bag

Asda chosen by you tea bag, given a good stir and then left in the mug to brew for about 3 mins and then a generous splash of semi skimmed milk and a one level spoon of sugar.

Very, very weak with a dash of skimmed. Just wave the teabag at the mug from the other end of the kitchen.

Strong, 2 or 3 sugars

I work at a youth club (well, volunteer, but thats not my point) and there's one boy who comes and has a cuppa with a minimum of 5! The first time he asked me to make it, I only put 3 in and he came back asking for more!

Do you use a tea pot? Do you use loose leaf or tea bag? I can drink strong milky tea with sugar or weak black tea without (and anywhere in between) providing it has been made in a tea pot with leaf tea. To put a bag in a mug is horrible and even worse if you put the milk in with the bag and then add the water.

Very strong, just a dash of milk, and two sugars. I tried to cut down on the sugar, but I soon went back up to two tea spoons .

A doctor I know told me that each time you put two sugars in your tea, you send yourself into pancreatic shock.
