I’ve thought on this and it’s because you need to measure the ingredients every time. The tea, amount of water, milk if you use it. Time how long it steeps
I don’t and sometime a cup in the morning tastes like water
Bag to water to milk ratio sometimes good sometimes not so good
2nd cup is never as nice as the first
Emotional state.
Sometimes I wake up in the night gasping, and water from my cupped hands from the bathroom sink at 3 am is the best drink in the world.
How old the milk is, how long the box of teabags have been open, how near the top of the boil you caught your kettle, whether it’s in your special cup.
Some days chlorine in tap water is stronger so that effects the taste
I did a lot of Mountaineering, high on the mountain, I’d heat up “astronaut” food, and it was very tasty. I ate one later at home, it made me feel sick. Taste is affected in many ways, your taste buds being just one way..
Tea is gross?.
It’s not the tea, it’s the you.
It’s a conspiracy but…There’s only 2 good ones in the box the rest are just floor sweeping.
True, although I only wash my sports direct mug once per month.
Try boiling fresh water each time, every time you boil the water it loses minerals (apparently).
Might be psychological, but I swear by it 🫖
Are people seriously this dumb?
Every once in a while you get that cuppa that you wish was bottomless.
Depends how much you *need* the cuppa
It’s like golf. Sometimes you hit that ball just right and it makes a lovely smacking sound. I can’t make my perfect cup of tea consistently but when I do it’s amazing.
It’s the tea fairy sprinkling magic fairy dust over your cuppa when you least expect it.
When someone else makes tea in the morning Vs when I make tea in the morning. How do they get the sugar and flavour just right?

Because you’re meant to listen to your body and get what you feel like. Not throw the same thing down every day and totally ignore your body. You could have that feeling every day, if you paid attention and ate and drink based on it.

Absolutely accurate. It baffles me.
