How come the Chinese and Japanese don't put milk and sugar in their tea, like they do in Britain?!
Answers:
brits drink servants tea, and do not know how to make tea nor appreciate exquiste tea, so they over boil, and milk to take the bitterness away, and sugar.
I don't know about whether the Chinese and Japanese are mostly lactose-intolerant. I've seen no proof of that, to be honest. And the tea I think you're referring to are made by brewing with tea leaves. I think they think it spoils the taste or something. You're supposed to drink it pure, like it is. It doesn't taste bad anyway. Not bitter or whatever. We do put milk and sugar in instant tea, lol.
Many Chinese and Japanese are lactose intolerant. Though the fact that milk in tea is bloody disgusting might have something to do with it too.
Also forgat; in China and Japan they drink mostly green tea and milk in that is even more bloody disgusting.
As said above
