I'm not exactly a young party animal anymore but a few shots of rum and some beer aren't enough to affect me the next morning.
Things I drank today:
1. A Korean grain latte- nice and healthy after a night of drinking. Great powder teas Korea. Thanks.
Maybe. : Chocolate early grey is $2 a cup at my local shop go.
Not to be from the mountains in central asia, but the only tea I drink is milk tea with salt. And only with bread. It's not tea for me unless I'm dipping bread into it
Three days later and I’m still drinking white peach oolong. Cold-brewed it bcs I was lazy. Still tastes great, though!
Paired it with the beef bone soup (and rice) mum made for lunch today and now I feel bloated with all these liquids swishing around in my tummy.
sinfuego salt in milk tea? I’ve never had it like that. Wow! :0 I usually have my milk tea with ice, since the weather is always so hot. If I‘m drinking it hot, I like to dip cream crackers in my tea. Bread is good but it gets soggy real quick so I prefer crackers... maybe it’s the type of bread I used (plain ol white sandwich bread)? What kind of bread do you eat with your tea?
ihateyounot I'm uyghur and my family makes traditional uyghur bread for our tea lol. It's usually a little hard, which makes it perfect to dip in tea cause it softens the bread up and absorbs and mixes the flavor really nicely 
Unfortunately, the only real way for non-uyghurs to experience it is by knowing an uyghur friend. It's home food; uyghur restaurants don't really have it

Is anyone else a bubble tea addict? What are your go-to bubble tea orders?
Mine is either roasted oolong milk tea, 70% sugar, no ice with herbal jelly/tapioca or the regular, original milk tea! Though I haven't had any in three long months in quarantine ; ;
ihateyounot Is it like black tea? Black tea, salt, melted lamb, bread? This is what the nomads eat. Farmers eat white tea. Milk is bred on tea leaves of green tea. add the fatty fat of a ram or a snow goat, crumbs are crushed into it. Add pepper, salt to taste.
Today I drank classic Russian tea - black long leaf Idian tea, with sugar three pieces of refined sugar and two circles of lemon.
But I like delicious tea - strawberry syrup, slices of orange, lemon and boiling water
Gourmet_DAO yes, except the tea is white with milk. Black tea is for guests, or when you have a headache lol. And meat goes with everything haha
Today someone on the internet made me crave/miss dipping bread and tea. I also like crackers but crackers and tea biscuits just feel more like an evening or midafternoon snack. Bread is for morning and childhood meals.
It's very hot where I live right now. So when I came home- took my shower, I had my brother pour me some of my dad's iced tea. I normally don't like my dad's tea as he's too careless about quality and taste.
However today a delicious wave of rose and fermented white grape hit me. What lovely iced te-HEY WAIT THIS IS FROM MY TEA STASH?!?!! THAT'S MY LUPICIA, DAD YOU BEEN STEALING FROM MY CABINET AGAIN
yiyuehua I’m not addicted, but I do drink it every now and then. My usual is black milk tea, 30% sugar, less ice and either grass jelly or the classic tapioca pearls. I’m lactose intolerant though so every dose ends with pain. No regrets! :D
sinfuego From the Uigur - Dungan cuisine we have - manti, lagman, yuftangza, manpar, Choshchurya dumplings, "Porya", "Suyuk Ash", Baursak.
today I drank juice from an apple with rose hips, then Nabeglavi Georgian water, Jermuk Armenian water, now I drink ordinary milk oolong.
Y’all having fancy teas while I make do with green, earl grey, or chamomile to wake up or unwind for bed. I have tea everyday as the hours, days, weeks drift by~ =w=
Mmm, looking forward to the day when I can fully relax and try more tea brews~ n-n
Chryiss If there would be a lot of money, there would be no Kovid-19, we all could travel the world and try different types of tea and desserts. For example, go to Japan, there are many teas and desserts there are surprisingly many wagashi with only 200 kinds!

Depends on the shop's specialty.
My usual orders vary depending on the brand and store (which is a clear sign of how bad my addiction is).
Usually, I like "tea" focused drinks, not sugar& syrup. Things that really bring out the tea or mix. Usually I get 50-75% and less ice. preferably no boba but I do enjoy pudding or crystal white pearls as add ons. Depending on the drink, aloe and grass jelly works too.
Thankfully I've been blessed with a body that can drink milk but I naturally prefer almond, soy or oatmilk. (in fancy coffee shops I'll even take macadamia or cashew milk)
ihateyounot Aw no :( being lactose intolerant but still drinking milk tea is a whole mood though. According to my friends, the pain is worth it LOL
CCmei Yesss it definitely depends on the shop. I used to have a neighborhood boba store that I love, but they closed down recently ; ; I also have really love the stores that focus on the tea component and less sugar/syrup. + Pudding and grass jelly are just as good (can you see how indecisive I am). Almond and soy milk is amazing but I haven't tried oatmilk too often. Hm, I'll give it a try !

Riiiiiight
Like one shop I must have the mango snow slush
This brand you should order the tea straight, with subtle flavors like blueberry jasmine
Another is some herbal fruity drink with honey aloe
This one gets matcha cheese foam lattes
That one you have to order wintermelon kumquat with crystal pearls
Another shop is famous for the brown sugar boba milk tea
So what if my favorite teas are oolong and fancy florals- it all depends on the brand and shop. ( I feel like a bubble tea slut....)
