I’m just finishing my 3rd coffee of the day (I really need to cut down again!) and just wondered what hot drink other people prefer? Are you a coffee drinker or do you prefer tea or perhaps you like herbal tea (good flavour recommendations welcome!) or something else? How do you take your tea/coffee/other. I drink strong black coffee with no milk or sugar but with half cold water due to sensitive gums; I don’t drink tea but do drink herbal teas depending on the flavour, lemon, ginger and manuka honey is a current favourite but peppermint and liquorice is a recent fail on the herbal tea front!
I hate Earl Grey tea, from the smell to the taste of it.
My first landlady, when I was lodging at college was an early grey fan. It was the only tea she would buy and drink. It was Earl Grey every day. I hated it from the first time I tasted it. Nine months later I was still hating it.
And I have avoided it since then.
I guess if you had to put up with the smell of Earl Grey every day from morning to night, that might explain why you are so sensitised to it?
