Leave to brew couple of mins, and leave tea bag in while you drink it. Can't go wrong and I work in building trade so drink enough of them

Ok as a Yorkshire lass living darn sarf and an almost exclusive coffee drinker I'm quite particular if I want a cuppa tea.

Big mug

Ringtons tea

Let it mash properly... It's got to be strong

Drop of milk

Mmm lovely

Is it the tea ? Maybe your taste buds are messing with you. Go the dentist for a check up ! There. That was a bit random.

I use twinings tea and a porcelain mug, and I even like teabagging.

it might be your taste buds changing. I totally went off milk in my tea. The smell knocked me sick. Has anything else changed taste wise?

I would see your GP and explain this as it may be a sign of an underlying problem. The body is a complex thing and it may be trying to tell you something. Better safe than sorry in my opinion.

Have you recently descale your kettle or does it need descaling sometimes that helps. Maybe your tastes are changing I had it happen to me and now can't drink tea with milk in it
