All black teas can be drunk with milk. However, to follow the English fashion, Darjeeling black tea seems the most suitable to mix with milk.
Black tea with milk for more smoothness
Black tea with milk is a habit in England and India. While its taste is milder, nutritionists do not recommend it, as its health effects are mixed.
Black tea leaves are sometimes bitter. This is especially true when the drink has steeped for a long time. Milk is a way to soften the taste. A cup of Darjeeling black tea lends itself well to this custom.
Why prefer a flavored black tea to a milk tea?
Dietitians prefer recipes with lemon, honey, or spices (pepper, cinnamon, or ginger). Indeed, the casein in milk cancels out the health benefits of tea's antioxidants. Moreover, cow's milk is high in calories. Some believe, however, that the relaxing effects of milk reduce the drawbacks of theine.
To prepare a black tea with milk, first prepare the tea. Let the powder bag steep for a few minutes in the cup of water, then remove it. The milk is only added when the infusion is ready.
