Answers:
Pouring cold milk into hot tea makes the proteins denature and that leads to an inferior taste, so the milk needs to be poured firstWww@FoodAQ@Com

I make tea with water first!. Unless you use a pot in which case you normally put milk in the cup and then pour the tea into the cup!.

A little off subject (ish) but my partner puts milk in first when it comes to coffee as he says hot water burns the coffee!. I don't know whether this is meant to be true or not but I put water in coffee first too other wise you get coffee floating on the top!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

personal preference, i prefer to put the milk in first as you can control how strong to make the tea, i have not had anyone not enjoy tea i have made in fact most people say how much they enjoyed it, even those that put water in firstWww@FoodAQ@Com

Definitely water in first!.

The cooler the water, the less you get from your teabag!. I find that if you put the milk in first you have to slosh the teabag around to get a decent strength cup of tea!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

If you're using a teabag IN A CUP then it's milk LAST - after the tea has brewed!. If you put the milk in first, the water temperature will be lowered and the tea won't brew properly!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Teabag into cup then add boiling water to allow tea to brew!.
Then add !.milk if you put milk in first it does not allow tea to brew!.
If the teabag is strong you can use the bag to make a 2nd cupWww@FoodAQ@Com

There is no correct way, but the way I do it is like this:
1!. Milk in
2!. Water in

i say water first!. i never add anything until after the tea ba has had time to steep!. makes better tea!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
