[Ben So Furry]

Lovely colour. Cinnamon spice? Is that the company or does it taste of cinnamon?

Has like a few spices in it, others are like cardoman, black pepper, some others I forget.
Tis mainly Cinamom though, think its like 37% or summat

Edit-

Ingredients
cinnamon*, cardamom*, ginger*, cloves*, black pepper*, *= Ingredients marked with * are certified organically grown.

What I do is just chuck about half a heaped teaspoon of it into my cup and then the teabag, and just nuke the fucker till it comes to the boil, steep for 5 mins and strain and add milk.
Hey presto , homemade chai that tastes much better than the shop versions.

This stuff is hard to find in HS though in loose form, only Revital health seem to sell it.
Can be found on Internetz though at a decent price.
They also do a Himalaya version which is great and very Gingerey

Surely this thread should be merged with the old school tea thread

good idea.

 

[Mailmonkey]

it could be improved if we could vote multiple times. can it be done?

Yes, multiple vootes were always posssible, only two votes were permitted however.

This poll is clearly fucked. That is all.

Moron,

Poll appears to have clearly and decisivesly settled the matter once and for all. Just goes to show the brilliance of it really.

Thankyou, I'm glad someone got it.

Best poll ever

I'm not at all surprised you weren't one of those who didn't like the poll. I've always had a lot of time for your lezzo ways.

Well.....yes and no.

Precisely.

Where's the Spade is a cunt option?

And the "I don't know" option.

These mods are slackers

It's a new regime. Butt out. None of your fucking business love.

Hope that satisfies these picky complainers.

I'm disgusted you changed this poll without even PMing me. Unprofessional. Not in the team spirit. I demand you change it back, or I'm getting alasdairm and police informer onto you for meddling, which is a specific offence in the BLUA

Good I need an infraction

Gagging for a decent cuppa now, I like Rooibos as well, found a good brand of Rooibos masala chai , and mix a black tea bag with it as well.

HEAVENLY.

The merging of this thread really makes me want to get some scones as well
Scones with melted butter on them are prime

 

[Mailmonkey]

I'm not happy about this merge either.

 

[knock]

ban me

How many times do you get invited in by people for a cuppa on your round?

And if you ever go in, how many of them make a decent cuppa ?

poll?

Although it seems overkill just to get an answer off one postal worker.

Oh man I'm hugely jealous, would love to do something like that! Never thought I'd say that like! Got a book called 'The Book of Tea' which details the history of Japanese art and tea from the 1800s on. Need to get it finished, very good book.

Tea itinerary from top of me head cos I'm bored:

Earl Grey x 2
Lapsang Souchong (best comfort tea ever, so so nice in winter)
Russian Caravan
Assam FTGFOP (fancy as hell)
Ceylon wi lemon
Matcha
Darjeeling mit apple (own blend, is seriously nice)
Chai
Green with lemon (nice on an evening)
Gen Mai Cha
Peach
Ginseng Oolong
Snow Dragon (raspberry aftertaste, fucking lovely)
Pu-Erh of various...varieties
Jasmine (try this, it is amazing)
Dimbula

And then there's a bunch more plus the decaf ones I drink on a night.

Good lord.

Some serious tea drinking there Snolly.

Still at it?

There seems to be some confusion over what constitutes tea in this thread. Mods pls close.

Herbal and fruit infusions are NOT tea

Tis serious business.

Report them jan, do it

 

[The Liberal Media]

Any infusion is a TEA

ie SHROOM Tea is "Tea"
