I am interested in finding out more about 3-in-1 tea (tea with milk and
sugar as a combination). I have found some suppliers for this type of tea in Asia but wonder where else I might get it from? I would also like to know if this is a popular tea, what form it comes in and what type of tea might be used and why I can't find many suppliers? |

Look for strong black tea from Assam or Sri Lanka processed using the CTC (crush tear curl) method. Try local Indian grocery store. -- Aloke ---- to reply by e-mail remove 123 and change invalid to com |

Try local Indian grocery store. I think he is referring to a product that is a mixture of evaporated tea with milk powder and sugar added. You add it to boiling water and get a (rather nasty) cup of English-style tea. It is used on airlines. I can't say how much I think this is a bad idea. --scott -- "C'est un Nagra.

I'd drink office coffee to avoid this. -- Aloke ---- to reply by e-mail remove 123 and change invalid to com |
