What do you mean by 'proper'?

this sounds amazing.

my flatmate just left for singapore for a year, so i need more people to drink tea with.

my favourite tea is oolong voolong dragons oolong. you can only get it in tchai ovna, but it is amazing. especially along with one of their flapjacks.

their strudel tea is ace as well, so i agree about the apple comments.

I have some of that, but i'm sure you can get apple tea that's not made out of flavouring and sugar. One of the restaurants around the corner from my parents house does it.

Am I missing something, or is there no tea in that 'tea'?

Boomslang · 27th August 2006, 10:06pm

Yeah you can get one that has real dried pieces of apple in it but still quite high in sugar. We all need sugar anyway to keep us bouncy.

Yip its more like apple concentrate. If you can take all the sugar without shaking from overload.

dil_em_ma · 27th August 2006, 10:07pm

Aah but if you put it in a tea pot you can pretend it contains tea, so all is fine and dandy!

Boomslang · 27th August 2006, 10:09pm

I suppose in the end, its not as lethal as Irn Bru.

^ what he said. It's a joint venture of Glasgow and Strath, I'm told you get a matric card for both uni's when you study there.

That tea is amazing. I perticularly like the Fijian White Monkey tea. It's expensive but well worth the money.

Tea soc is a definite go-go. Tell all your mates. We'll post some times soon.
