Many tea lovers are sure that they cannot do without adding sugar.

This component really improves the taste of the drink, makes it sweeter and removes bitterness.

However, the problem is that granulated sugar is not the healthiest product, especially when consumed frequently.

If a person drinks tea several times a day, it is advisable to sometimes avoid adding sugar to the drink.

But how then to remove the bitter taste? And how to achieve a pleasant and bright taste of the drink, despite the absence of a sweet component?

What experienced gourmets do

Some drink lovers add not just a few spoons of sugar, but just a little sea salt.

Perhaps such an action may seem strange. But this is only at first glance.

It is enough to try “salty” tea once to be convinced that the drink is very tasty.

Sea salt reveals the taste of the drink no worse than sugar. Moreover, no extra flavors are felt - neither salty nor bitter.

It is worth noting that the life hack with the addition of an unusual ingredient “works” not only for tea, but also for coffee.
