Wait until the Colombians learn about Iced Coffee. Oh and the Italians when they learn about Iced Espresso!

This is actually a Monty Python reference to "make tea not love".

The fact that everyone keeps referencing The Boston Tea Party is a really sad commentary on the American lack of historical knowledge

I mean I'm all American boo yah but Boston tea party was not the first thing to come to mind...

Same here, opium wars are way bigger.

According to ISO 3103, milk goes before the tea.
Lambast
Only in stoneware cups. In porcelain or tempered glass, adding the water first affords greater accuracy of milk dosage later.

For real tea connoisseurs when you add the tea has different effects on the overall tea experience. It's not as simple as only one is right.
Not according to the international standards organization

Britain basically invaded and conquered half of the globe in search of tea and spices. If you've ever eaten UK food, you'll understand why.

Today it's almost as if the Brits make more food with curry than India.

"How do you like it?" - "It's a bit bland." - "A bit bland? That means I need to cook it for 3 more hours to make it unbelievably bland."

Clearly you've never tasted my cooking.

If you're entire spectrum of things to grow given the climate ranges from turnip to turnip, you'd get on a boat and start shooting too.
MrWoodchip
Hey, it's not just turnips. Sometimes we do potatoes too.
Well lah-dee-dah. We also do leeks on special occasions.
Mostly the welsh
Xanpheon
Ah, fuck off. Best food I ever had was a British roast beef, certainly better than French and Italian stuff (after going to both countries).
[deleted]
I'm not denying that, though you are massively understating the breadth. But British food isn't shit.
Even back then, though it took a bit of a downturn around the 18th century. But I didn't make any claims about old food did I?
GibsMcKormik
Remember that time America made the Guinness world record for tea and Britain lost their shit because it was cold

My mother made the hotel staff make her iced tea back in the 90s, I'm still shocked at the audacity.

Damn terrorists. Destroying property to advance their political causes.
Are you seriously asking?

That SHOULD be world record for biggest cup of tea.

With the right attitude, anything can be a cup

Listen, that started here in the South because it is hot and sticky as BALLS. Britain is too cold to appreciate iced tea!

Here in North US we have no such excuse.
You also don't know how to make it right, from what I hear. So there is that.
We usually purchase tea in the form of single serving bags, water is boiled, the tea bag is inserted, and then we wait a minute or so
(This part may vary depending on taste) before removing the teabag. IIRC in other places the consumer prepares the teabag themselves?

I like both normal tea and iced tea. They're both good for different reasons.

*Cold unsweetened tea. I went to a fancy event in the south and was like, Oh, ice tea let me get some. It wasnt sweetened?! You can't 1/2
sweeten tea after it's cooled down, that's a law of physics!!
ruferto
i have a glass of water w/ tea bag in it in my fridge for middle of the night wakeup drink. but in the mornings i like my tea hot
Karlkingofduckss
Ive never really had hot tea, not sure how I would like it. But we make hot tea then cool it in the fridge for later. Or we mix the hot tea
With the correct amount of ice water to make what we normally do but skip the long cooling process. Comes out about the same, this is for
Large pitchers not a glass as you were saying. You also might save tea bags if you make it this way as well. The tea stays good for a while
