Caught In The Whirlwind
The Irish Are OK In My Book
As I mentioned in my last post, I have actually discovered a black tea that I enjoy drinking. Historically, I didn't really like the taste. It was a little too much on the bitter side for me and I'm really sensitive to stuff that tastes bitter.
But last weekend when I was over at my friends, Wassy brewed me a cup of Irish Breakfast and it was awesome. So I ordered my own tin of it from my favorite tea supplier Adagio which arrived yesterday.
I must say, I think I will be changing my routine to include having a cup of tea when I wake up because it's just a perfect little way to kickstart the morning. I tried some last night but I used too much milk. The cup this morning though…mmmm…perfect.
I've also been considering getting some tea supplies for work so that I can have a cup in the afternoon instead of feeling tempted to hit up the vending machine or grab some soda. Darn my weak willpower!

My work has a "near boiling" water facet at all the sinks, it's so easy to make tea at work. I bought this huge mug so I don't have to make so many trips
I've never tried Irish Breakfast, do you add milk or sugar?

A drop of milk and then a little sugar to sweeten it.I'm still figuring out the best amounts of both right now. I put too much milk in the first time. This time I didn't use quite enough tea so it wasn't as strong as I would have liked.It's very awesome in the morning. Has kinda a perky, full taste to it without being too overpoweringly strong.I wish my work was as tea friendly though.

I never put milk in my tea until I went to Scotland – I never understood why people added it until I had it with breakfast

I think they may throw you out of the country if you don't put milk in your tea over there
