----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I would like to know; how do you take your tea?

Do you drink with a guzzle, sip, swig, or sup?

Would you like a robust barrel of black sea?

Or delicate flowers from a Pinming cup?

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A/N: Here's a little ballad(?) for you on this National Tea Day!

I don't often drink tea, but when I do, it's laden with sugar and milk! And I sup a little from a teaspoon at a time - like a hummingbird!

How do you take yours?

    IN.LOVE.WITH.THIS.!!!!! Loves this poem, a beautiful call to tea and its versatility! Big tea drinker over here! πŸ’œπŸ₯°πŸ«– I usually take mine black, occasionally will allow some steamed milk to make it a London Fog or Latte.

  • That was a great little poem and I drink coffee more than tea but I like it every now and then. I don't if you have tried Biscuit Tea but everyone I know who has tried it loves it. Amazon have it here https://amzn.to/41q9poc
