Depends on the quality of gin, m'dear. If it were top shelf then it would be a happy surprise, however if it were cheap gin... :sick:

Its that shock of getting a cup of alcohol when you were totally expecting a BIG gulp of cold clear water because yer parched. You may as well have been handed a cup of gasoline. It just sends your systems for loops.

And anyway I havent had gin since freshman year in college after a rather horrific experience i wont get into. so if i even SMELL it its like the equivalent of smelling bile for most people. and the person who handed me the drink knew that. it was all part of the joke.

Pardon me while I vomit.

I refuse to drink tea if the water's had any contact with coffee. The old machine at work had a clean hot water spout and I could make tea there. But the new one passes the hot water through the same spout as the coffee, and the smell turns my stomach. I've smashed more than one cup over the years because someone used it for coffee when I wasn't there.

Properly shamed into action, I have just returned from Williams Sonoma with my new aquisition in life... a plug in tea kettle! I have now joined the ranks of the civilized. Rejoice one... rejoice all... for I shall now have perfect tea upon demand.
 
Does it have a water level indicator? Automatic off? Is the pot itself cordless?
 
Now, you need the china teapot. Or are you one of those visigoths who make their tea directly in the cup? And ...<gulp> squeeze the bag:ick:

And tell me you add the hot water to the milk, and not milk to hot water.

Ah, now that is cruel :( (Didn't realise yer had an aversion to the stuff)

I'd be the same way if someone replaced my gin with water ;)

A proper teapot will be a future buy, but instead I'm thinking of just confiscating my fathers as he never seems to use it.

I am one who adds hot water into the milk.
 
Now... What tea should I be looking for in regards to daily consumption and what is best for the rarified fancy gatherings?
