This is how we used to have our tea in the good old days Lots has changed. These days it is just the tea mug and tea bags. The reason being unlike in the olden days when tea used to be had several times but now is just one mug at breakfast time.
I like my tea with a bit of milk and sugar. It has that pleasant biscuit colour - neither too strong nor light. The brand is Goodricke roasted tea.
How do you have your tea or coffee?

It has to be sugar for me although from the health point of view honey is recommended.

@allknowing And I read if you use local honey it will help your allergies.

Naturally creamy!! What's going on? It does look like you have added milk. Does it also come with sugar?

@allknowing I did not add milk and I did not add sugar, this is a perfect "espresso" as you can have it in any Italian cafe. I have an espresso machine at home.

@allknowing Oh, yes, I use honey sometimes instead of sugar. Hot drinks make my stomach ache that's why I'm not so much on coffee and hot milk,

I have a hot mug of milk in the night and also have curds with honey that as you say ensures I get my calcium

That depends on what type of tea I have. For Chinese tea, I have it plain. For Earl Grey, I add a bit of honey. I also like HK milk tea (black tea with evaporated milk).

You should taste it. Unsweetened almond milk is naturally sweet, and it is lower in callories.

We too have tea pots now languishing Mint flavour in tea is nice.

@allknowing My sweetener is healthy. It’s made from a plant.
