You can get "milk teas" (with tapioca pearls and a hugeass straw) in Japanese bubble tea shops, but they are specialties, and not really considered tea.
If I am having cold green tea....no milk.

As we speak I am enjoying a hot tea, with sugarine and Skinny Milk.

When I was over in the States everyone thought I was mad for having hot tea with milk in the morning.

I drink my tea de-caff these days, but the mornings (hot or cold) wouldn't be the same without a proper cuppa. Tetley De-Caff, mashed teabag, milk in last, strong enough to trot a mouse across. Aaaaaaaah!

BTW my new boss - from Adelaide - believes you should put the milk in first for both tea & coffee. I therefore assume this is an Australian tradition and claim all Aussies to be heathens too. I am staying at home and spending all my new wages on myself - travelling is too fraught with danger.
