Black tea - not bitter

[Mojooo]

I am trying to cut down or give up on dairy.

The main offender is full fat milk in my tea

I could go down to less fat milk but it tastes nasty and I would liek ot cut it completley anyway.

I usually have PG Tips so tried some with no milk and it tastes nasty - too bitter I think.

Are there any other brands that taste a bit sweeter or something? Or less bitter.

I stopped having sugar in my tea last year and that was actuallly quote easy with no problem.

One problem is vast majority of people I know use PG Tips so I don't want to be someone who can never have tea when I am out and about.

I do currently squish the teabag big time to make it strong so maybe I will give it a quick dip instead.

OK one step at a time - PG Tips but not strong and will play with temp

I tned to make my tea boiling and the milk cools it. So will have to adjust my habits now.

OK

I spose it makes little difference to taste how hot the tea is?

Without milk I have to leave the tea standign for a while to cool down so I can see why people dont use boiling water for non milk tea.

I bought 3 varieties of tea today - Twinings Everyday, Tesco Finest Earl Grey and English Breakfast

Just tried PG Tips v Twnings Everyday - 3 mins brewing.

Definitley a big difference. Twinings feels 'cleaner' and definitley less bitter taste.

I'll try them again tomorrow with maybe 90 secs.

Bit of a faff having to wait so long to actually drink the damn tea though - even after 3 minutes they are still too hot to drink without milk.
