Do you like your tea with honey, sugar, black? With cream or without? Do you prefer milk to cream?
I like my tea sweetened with honey and with a dollop of cream if I have it, milk if I don't have cream and black if there is no dairy in the house! I have even put vanilla soymilk in it which I think is lovely as well!

It depends on the flavor. I like mint tea with a 1/2 tsp of sugar, no cream. Peach black tea with 1/2 tsp sugar and cream (peaches n cream...mmmmmm). My new favorite: black chai tea with 1tsp sugar (I tend to make it very strong) and cream unless I ice it, then I prefer no cream. Earl Grey and chamomille teas with honey and lemon, no cream.
I only like real cream, not powdered or that artificial liquid stuff.

If it's black tea, Alee, then cream only. If it's green or herbal, then honey only.

I just like the tea plain. No sugar no creamers. This time of year I love iced tea.

If it is a breakfast tea it definitly gets milk and honey! Most quality herb teas I enjoy plain. If it is a less expensive brand it sometimes need honey. I usually just wing it. I am a HUGE fan of the vanilla and coconut chai tea. I do put milk in this one. It's a great afternoon pick-me-up.

Hi Girls! I love tea...typically with cream/milk. Last summer I made 2 flavored sugars (mint and lemon balm) with the herbs from my garden, and I've used them in teas all winter. They've added just the perfect light flavor to the teas....wonderful!!
