Someone rear-ended my car on a minor road in a small town on the way home from work. The driver of the offending vehicle helped push my car off the road and into the driveway of a nearby house. We were waiting for the arrival of the police when the house resident appeared five minutes later with two bone china cups and saucers on a tray containing piping hot tea, a little jug of milk and some sugar cubes. Oh yes, and some biscuits daintily set out on a side plate. This is what tea means to the British. It appears at almost every crisis, physical or mental. It's the national panacea and should never be called just a drink. Coffee's great but when the chips are down, only a good British cuppa will do. Always try to drink it piping hot, and preferably without sugar, but dunking of biscuits is permitted and actually preferred! Great video guys!

The British tanks all have a tea making device in them, so they are all technically a war kettle that is also equipped to kill the enemy.

Black teas are not clones of each other. Depending on how much sunlight they get, how long they are left before harvesting, how long they are dried, quality of soil etc all contribute to differences in flavour.

[@lewilewis3944]

Yorkshire Gold makes the best 'Builders Tea'; brew it in a large mug with two bags for 5 mins, add a glugging gush of full fat milk and more sugar than is healthy. Mate, the result is better than a double espresso. At least it doesn't give you the shits.

Well that kind of depends on if you then sweat or not, to actually have the cooling down process to be effective.

[@joethomas5216]

If you don't really like that taste of tea, you might want to try Darjeeling. It's known as the champagne of teas, because it has a much more subtle and delicate flavour. It is taken from the tips of the tea leaves so it doesn't have the high tanin content that the normal tea leaves do, so it doesn't have that bitter taste. It is a much lighter colour and a much lighter tasting tea. Perfect for the tea ritual and buzz but without the bitter tea flavour.

Bonjour. Greetings from France , I love your tea tasting . Yorkshire Tea and Taylors Breakfast Tea is made by the same company and Taylors of Harrogate if you look at the breakfast tea packet you will see its by Royal Appointment from the Prince of Wales so this tea goes to the Royal Household of the Prince of Wales. Now Prince William, WE have tea in France we drink the earl grey and the English breakfast tea both of these are now popular and with milk . A lot of herbal tea is drunk here in France with no milk popular is mint and camomile. The earl grey taste the finniest you had in the blue packet this is from Sainsburys supermarket their own up market brand. Also coffee is drunk here in cafes this is more of a social thing to meet friends. We love your channel here in France and love watching , Merci Jean-Marc

Does William drink it? If not then it shouldn't have the Royal seal anymore. I did also learn in school that they now make a mockery of this royal seal, by if they get someone in the household once they then say it has the royal seal, some are even still touting the seal from when QV gave it & QE didn't even touch it. You can usually see in fine litters within the scroll showing QV approved. Cadburys was one, but it's not british owned anymore & the flavour has changed a bit so shouldn't have it 😂

Funny thing is, I've always got a cup of tea when watching this channel. Yorkshire Gold are the best, with Yorkshire tap water. (Doesnt taste exactly the same anywhere else, usually due to hard water) I have 1 a day in the morning. Then regular Yorkshire Tea throughout the day and maybe the odd Tetley just to mix it up. 4-5 mins to brew, lightly squeeze bag, add dash of milk and sugar, perfect.

Checklist of errors if interested :D 1 - Water has to be straight from the kettle after its boiled, those 60 seconds make a huge difference in the infusing quality 2 - If you're adding sugar it needs to be under the tea bag so it has a chance to dissolve properly 3 - Milk is per taste, but you didn't use much which is why you had the sense that the tea was still hot. I'd recommend twice as much milk 4 - You need to stir the tea appropriately, especially if you placed sugar in there 5 - Tea bags should not be left in a cup for more than 2 mins really otherwise it will become stewed rather than steeped, I think that happened with the Yorkshire tea 6 and most important - Its tea, do it how you want, how you like, but to be able to do that you need to have a standardized default setting lol which you can find above

The names Earl Grey and English Breakfast are historically traditional ‘Posh’ blends of different types of tea. Most Brits daily would be more likely to drink brands like the PG Tips, Tetley or the Yorkshire teas. In my opinion Sweet Tea is a distinctly American thing. I’ve heard it referred to as “Diabetes in a Mug’. Retry all of these WITHOUT sugar. English Tea should have NO sugar when you first try it. Adding sugar is a personal choice just the same as how long you leave the tea bag in. I actually have no sugar, very little milky and I leave the tea bag in so it’s really strong tasting. For the Earl Grey another tradition is adding a dash of lemon juice instead of milk. “Taste the Difference” is the ‘Own Brand’ for a supermarket over here called Sainsbury so this is their ‘cheaper’ version of Earl Grey tea. Even between brands the same tea blend can be quite different so keep trying them and you’ll hit on one you will really like. My favourite is a more obscure loose leaf tea by Brooke Bond called Taj Mahal served nice and strong with just a tiny bit of milk. Naturally there’s at least one biscuit involved.

Don’t just waft the edge in the general direction of the cup, 😂😂 The perfect dunk is about 0.5 seconds before TOTAL DISASTER, which is when the biscuit falls to bits in your mug. More Dunk, More tea, more better! 2 Brewing Tea - I’m pretty sure you got this spot on. Boil the water, pour it on the teabag straight away. Give it time to brew, about a minute for the 1-cup round teabags (the most common ones) Add milk if you wish, even some cold water if you don’t like it super hot. Apart from putting the water in first, brew it how you like it!!! 3 Taste testing tea - this is all about my OCD scientific brain - make them all the same, try all without sugar, even without milk if you wish, then add the same sugar to each one, etc etc. That way you can do a fair comparison between each of them, AND work out which is your favourite brew and serving style.
