Enjoy Black Tea With Milk and Sugar

The teas in this category are specially selected to be enjoyed with milk and sugar, making them an excellent choice for tea lovers who like their hot beverage creamy and sweet. Whether you prefer traditional cow's milk or opt for one of the many plant milk alternatives, these teas are robust enough to retain their distinctive flavours yet blend harmoniously with the additional ingredients.

To get the most out of the intense flavours of these teas, we recommend using a little more tea than usual and letting the infusion steep for a few minutes longer. This not only allows for a deeper and richer flavour development, but also ensures that the taste of the tea is not overpowered by the milk or sugar.

It is important to note that adding milk and sugar to tea not only changes the taste, but also the mouthfeel of the tea. The milk adds a silky texture to the tea, while the sugar adds a pleasant sweetness that brings out the natural flavours of the tea while softening any bitterness.

The teas in this category are great to combine with plant milks. Replacing traditional milk with plant-based alternatives is not only a great way to vary the flavour of your tea, but also makes this selection particularly appealing to those on a vegan diet or who are lactose intolerant.

Plant milks, whether made from almonds, soy, coconut or oats, each bring their own unique flavour profiles to tea. Almond milk, for example, with its slightly nutty and sweet taste, can add a pleasant complexity to tea blends. Soy milk, on the other hand, known for its creamy and mild taste, can accentuate the depth and richness of the tea without overpowering its natural flavours.

Coconut milk, with its rich and tropical flavour, can add an exotic element to your tea experience, while oat milk, prized for its natural sweetness and creamy texture, brings a warming and comforting note to tea.

The addition of sugar or alternative sweeteners such as agave syrup or maple syrup can also be varied to further personalise the taste experience.

Regardless of the plant milk chosen, to enjoy the full flavour of these teas, we still recommend using a little more tea and letting it steep for a few minutes longer. This ensures that the flavour of the tea is not overpowered by the plant milk or sweetener and you achieve a harmonious balance between the flavours.

Overall, combining these teas with plant milks is a delicious and versatile way to experience the joy of tea. They are particularly suitable for vegans, people with lactose intolerance or simply anyone who wants to discover a new dimension of taste in their tea experience.
