I make my tea by first heating water and then adding the tea leaves till the color of the solution becomes golden brown. I add only a little milk and after some time strain/filter it into a cup and add sugar. I dont like very mily tea though. How do you make your tea?

I boil the kettle with fresh water, before the kettle fully boils I pour a little drop of water into the tea pot and swirl the water round to warm the teapot. I then put four teaspoons of tea leaves into the teapot and when the water has boiled I pour the water from the kettle into the teapot on top of the tea leaves. I put the teapot lid on and put the tea cosy on the teapot. I then go to the fridge and get the milk out. I pour a little drop of milk into my teacup and replace the milk back into the fridge so it doesn't go off. I remove the tea cosy and tea pot lid and stir the tea with a teaspoon. I then pour the tea into my teacup, stir my tea and make sure it is the correct shade of brown. I then sit down, put my feet up and enjoy my lovely cup of tea.

I like to make my tea with sugar only. I've never understood the concept of adding milk to tea. Maybe I'm trying it with the wrong flavors?

You;re right. Flavoured tea is best black. Plain tea tastes pretty good with a touch of milk.
