American Tea Habits and Yours
It's come to my attention a few times in the past but my late night mind finds it necessary to inquire about it
There's no secret that coffee is infinitely more popular in America than tea. But for those that do drink tea there's one habit or trait about it that drives certain foreigners crazy
And that's leaving the bag in the cup.
For those here that take it out
May I ask
Why do you? And why is it cringed upon when it stays in the cup

Edited by Cultmeister: 1/31/2015 11:49:08 PMHow to make a (nice) mug of tea using a teabag: 1. Teabag -> mug 2. Milk -> mug 2b. The amount of milk used here should [u]exceed[/u] your usual amount of milk; this is what makes it taste so good. Unless you like your tea particularly black, in which case wtf are you reading this for? 3. Boiling water -> mug 4. Leave / stir until at desired strength 5. Remove bag 6. Lift mug to face 7. Open mouth 8. Pour tea into mouth 9. Suddenly realise water is still boiling hot and spit all over kitchen counter / clean pile of laundered clothes. 10. Get buttmad at burnt mouth and wet surroundings. [spoiler]The point of the milk in tea is to add flavour to it, not to simply get the drink to a particular colour, so putting more in first means you get all the extra flavour without the tea having to be weaker than you want it.[/spoiler] Leaving the bag in there just makes a mess at the bottom of the mug.
