To make tea taste better and still retain its beneficial properties, you need to know how and with what to drink it correctly.
Some useful advice on this issue was shared by the expert of the online publication BelNovosti, chef Yulia Arkhipova.
Sugar added to tea infusion in small quantities improves the taste of the tea drink. And an excess of sugar causes the absorption of vitamin B1.
This fact has been proven by scientific research.
Therefore, it is better not to put too much sugar in tea or use honey instead of sugar.
Tea infusion mixed with milk is a very nutritious and easily digestible drink.
Milk goes well with any type and variety of tea.
Most often, people like to drink tea with lemon. However, this drink also goes well with other citrus fruits.
These fruits enhance the healing and nutritional properties of the tea infusion.
True, the true taste of the tea changes somewhat. The color of the tea changes from citrus: it becomes lighter. But, despite the changed color, the strength of the drink is preserved.
Those who like to drink tea with chocolate or sweets should do it with a bite. In this case, the sip of tea should occur after the sweets have been swallowed.
This way of drinking tea will help you feel its taste and aroma. Otherwise, chocolate and other sweets with their own strong aroma will simply drown out the taste and aroma of the drink.
Hot tea helps digest dough dishes and even slightly increases their nutritional value. But the taste of the tea itself decreases.
But if you really want to drink tea with a cake or a piece of pie, then the tea must definitely be strong and hot.
