Off Topic Tea

The drink, not the evening meal.

Or with coffee.

Which is the perfect drink and biscuit combo?

I just opened these as a snack. So easy to see what I pick at first. Will scran the rest tomorrow with my coffee.



Chocolate always go first.

So what is the perfect combo?.

 

Chocolate Hobnobs with coffee. I ain’t got time for tea.

 

Jam and cream dodgers with tea. Coffee with a brownie.

 

Not especially arsed about having a biscuit with either. McVities homewheat probably the best one out there though if I did.

Very precious about my tea, it's the first thing I do in the morning (bar having a piss). Put the kettle on and make a cup of tea.

Two cups of tea on the bounce first thing, has to be done.

I drink coffee after that. No instant ****e either.

 

coffee all morning for me, and anything chocolate i have in.

 

Cup of tea with the cookies from that selection.

 

I enjoy Tea the builder’s yard way , I also enjoy an instant coffee, tried the posh way of having coffee with the coffee maker...don’t like it, overrated. I like my Asian tea too which can be a long process consisting of a few spices, sugar, milk, water and tea bags on the boil for a while...very tasty. When I’m chillin in a Sheesha bar I usually go for Mint tea.

chocolate biscuits first always if possible but I appreciate the non chocolate biscuit too. From that box I’m going for them choco finger things, they look interesting. I’ll try one if it’s ****, I’m going for the choco digestives as my safe choice

 

I used to only drink tea. Now i rarely touch it.. It's coffee all the way, but no fancy poofy coffee machine, or coffee with a tarts name

And for about 2 years now, no sugar.

 

I don’t have sugar with any of my drinks but it’s part of the ingredients in the Asian Tea’s so I’ll have it. However I can’t eat a biscuit with it, then it’s sickly sweet for me

very fussy like

 

Do you like those green teas etc?

 

not really...I’ve tried them but they don’t do it for me...can’t quite put my finger on what it is but them fruity tea’s leave me a bit short changed...they shouldn’t be called tea, something else...hot fruit juice or sumt maybe.

I’ve tolerated green tea for health purposes now n again but I find it’s a difficult drink to finish off

 

Love my tea. Best thing ever to dunk in tea is this...

Nothing even comes close. Especially when you're stoned off your tits. Introduced so many to these and it's been like the road to Damascus for all

 

legendary

they soak up half a cup of tea per rusk

 

Tunnock's Caramel wafers with either tea or coffee ...

Ginger nuts dunked in coffee

 

Not quite tunnocks. Just a cheap lidl copy. But I hear us

 

PG Tips tea bags for me, with some chocolate digestives of course.

 

Dark chocolate I hope or dark chocolate hob nobs

 

Lunch and dinner for me.

 

Favourite tea bags;
PG Tips
Yorkshire Tea (even though tea doesn’t grow in ****ing Yorkshire)

Favourite loose leaf tea;
Fortnum and Mason’s breakfast blend

Green teas;
Gunpowder tea (Sri Lanka)
Japanese Bancha

Coffee;
Nah, not really. Except when I was in Milan and Rome, and got hooked on about 5 espressos with a brioche every morning.

 

There’s a place in Covent Garden called the Tea House, little shop specialising in teas from around the world. Also sells teapots and cups, strainers, tea cosies etc.

Really hope it’s not one of those retail businesses that goes under thanks to these endless ****ing lockdowns.
