Do you guys put the milk in before you put in the water or after? and if you prefer it one way does it really make a difference to the taste? |

I put the milk in first and always have, however, my family and friends tell me that this is WRONG, funny that they still drink my tea though. |

I`m exactly the same Bella. I always put milk in first and my Sgt always has a go saying he can taste difference but he never seems to complain! |

there was a debate,about milk first,or last,and i think the jury is still out...i put it in last,as i dont like my tea to look white. bryan. |

The water should go in first - fact. Think about it... you're supposed to put BOILING water on the tea. If you add the nilk first, then it reduces the heat. I can certainly taste the difference. |

I find that by putting in the milk first i have more control over the colour and strength of the tea, hubby makes tea with water first and it tastes just as good as mine....sometimes. |

Can't stand Tea from those polystyrine or plastic cups you get at train stations. |

Some people swear that tea from a china cup tastes better, a myth i think. |

Don't really mind the make of tea, as long as it's made in a TEAPOT and NOT in the mug/cup (exception is herb or fruit teas which are fine this way)! |
