I’m on a weekend vacation and forgot to bring my tea and the international grocery didn’t have it, so I settled for Darjeeling. I can barely notice the difference. It’s so subtle that it might as well just be a different tea brand.

    I mean, your tea game is dire. Far too dilute, and made with cold salt water! Who would want to drink that. If that’s the best Boston can do, it completely explains why Americans don’t drink tea!

      Well we had to make enough for a whole party. The salt was just a bonus knowing no true Brit would ever let seasoning get near their meal.

        We accidentally built an empire looking for new seasonings! It got so bad we started naming our new dishes after where we stole the flavours from!

        If you want to salt the tea, that’s your business, but at least heat the water first!

            Acceptable. We understand that America lacks the infrastructure to support advanced equipment, like the 3kw electric kettle.
