Teabag and suger in mug
add water
squeeze teabag after leaving to brew for 20seconds
remove teabag and stir tea, doing this before adding the milk makes sure the sugar is melted properly
add milk whilst stiring in one direction then change direction whilst still pouring milk.

I prefer using a teapot/loose tea but i dont have that luxury at the moment.

I am the king of tea.

Warm teapot by swishing round some boiling water.

Add teabags (probably not as nice but less mess).

Add boiling water. Leave to brew.

Add a little milk to cup, pour tea into cup.

Provide sugar for whoever is drinking it to add to their own taste.

Afterwards, rinse but don't wash the teapot.


This is the only way. The only way. (apart from Fatiain's Real mans tea drinkin)

One time my eldest sister (25) came home with one of her work collegues. Her friend was a bit dappy. Anyway, my mum got the kettle on and started making some hot drinks.

My mum asked my sisters work collegue how she liked her tea and she said, "like this" *makes stirring motion with her hand* LOL.
