I like Earl Gray or English Breakfast with a little bit of whole milk (to me, that is cream, since my ingestion of dairy is so seldom) and perhaps a little bit of sugar. I love the way the cream looks when I stir it with a spoon in the tea. Everyone who has ever seen me do this to tea has laughed or balked. I don't know why. It just adds a richness to the tea. I think I learned it from Perth, who, incidentally lived in England for 2 years as a child. Perhaps that is where he learned to put "cream" in tea?

I don't drink much tea these days.
