Looking past the sacrilege some people see in adding milk to black tea, what do milkers use in theirs?

After trying half a dozen milk-replacement products over the year, I’ve found Barrista-spec oat milk is the winner.
In fact, we’ve now ditched buying cow milk entirely.

    Isn’t the definition of black tea just tea that you’ve decided not to add milk to? Or do you mean fancy teas that you don’t normally add milk to?

      Black tea is oxidized tea leaves as a means of preservation. I can see it being confused with black coffee but I am pretty sure the tea came first. If it helps, it is called red tea in china due to the red color of the tea.

      My understanding is that a lot of people find the uk standard of milk in tea very strange.

      I wonder if there is a japan or india focussed lemmy community we could bother for an opinion!

        I can cope with going online and reading seemingly bizarre political opinions or crazy stuff the kids think is cool nowadays, but this is an unacceptable revelation!
