No tea

[louiselux]

I just drank a can of red bull cola as a substitute for tea, because there's no milk. It's not working. I need tea.

The reason there's no milk is that I just spent my last money-- the money I was going to use to buy milk-- on a giant envelope, which the post office lady made me pay for in actual cash, even though I was paying for some other things with my card. I wanted to say 'but I need this money for milk, so I can have a cup of tea' but I did not. I submissively handed over my milk money.

WHY?

same here (the south part), i am super picky about my tea, but we have 2 main types, cold sweet tea and hot tea with lemon. now that i'm in nor. california, i've taken up the asian milk tea drink, which is pretty much what it sounds like, you make hot black tea and then add sweetened condensed milk until it looks like chocolate milk.

i prefer mine to be on the sweeter side with pearls (tapiocca pearls). it's yummy. :) i'm glad you finally got you tea!

Bubble tea is getting really popular where I am too (southern California)! I tried it once and was completely grossed out, but one of my best friends adores it. *laughs* People are always picky about their teas, I think!

i'm a huge honeydew fan, and tapioca express has this honeydew snow bubble, not tea, but oh my is it to die for. i like iced milk tea as well, if you can, try it with the small boba (tapioca pearls) or the white ones, some people don't like the chewy sweetness when they aren't expecting it. the small ones are an easy starter version, and the white ones are less smoky sweet than the large black ones. just an fyi-i hated it at first myelf too! :)

That sounds delicious. There must be somewhere in the UK that will serve me tea with condensed milk and tapioca pearls.

try searching for a tapioca express or a quickly, they're chains out of asia, or if you have a chinese neighborhood you can ask for a bubble tea. good luck!
