I know what you mean about trying not to get long winded. Sometimes it boggles the mind a bit to realise that our short posts are still longer than other people’s long posts…
I think I’ll make a cup of this. Odd how a post about a tea that someone wasn’t really impressed with can inspire someone else to make a cup of a tea that they weren’t really impressed with either. I’ve found that adding a little milk helps a lot though. How exactly do you mean when you say ‘proper latte’? Is it something to do with steaming and foaming the milk like in coffee drinks, or is it something one can do at home in an ordinary kitchen?

That happens to me a lot because I keep thinking that I’ll like it better after I read about it for some reason. I don’t know why.

In regards to the “proper latte,” actually, getting technical to me that does mean steaming and frothing the milk, but I don’t really have the means to do that… So what I meant in that context was just putting more milk in it. I just dumped like a tablespoon in it last time when I was about half-way through the cup and it wasn’t effective at all. I’ll probably do like 2 parts water 1 part milk next time and actually let the tea steep in the milk.
