Sometimes I enjoy a very strong, tannin-y black tea, with just a spot of honey and a dash of milk to round out the harshness.
This is to say I add two teabags to boiling hot water, stir it with a spoonful of honey, leave it for a few minutes, then put just a hint of milk so it’s not too hot to drink anymore.
Put when I specifically want good tea, I’ll make ~80C water (3 parts boiling, 1 part lukewarm ~20 degrees = 80c), then put a nice wulong tea in there to steep for a while.
No honey, no milk. Maybe a few drops of lemon juice on rare occasions to switch it up a bit.
