Weekly Topic: There are many different ways to prepare a tea around the world. How do you usually drink yours?

May 28, 2022

(Some of my English shouldn't be translated literally. I would be glad if it could be helpful for people to understand the context of my Japanese)

私はミルクティーが大好きです。私はセイロン茶がミルクと合うと思います。セイロン茶のこくが暖かいミルクと混ざるとミルクの甘みを増す気がします。
(I really like milk tea. For my best and loose way of making milk tea, Ceylon tea should go well with milk, in my opinion. I think the rich flavour of Ceylon tea would enhance the sweetness of hot milk after they are mixed.)

私流のミルクティーの簡単な(ずぼらな)いれかたがあるので、それを説明したいと思います。
(I will explain my simple (loose or lazy) way of making milk tea.)

③➁のティーバッグを少し揺らして、そこに牛乳を入れる
(ティーバッグは入れたまま)
(Softly swing the tea bag inside the mug cup, and add milk into the mug cup (Still, keep the tea bag in))
