So this is random faff that I've felt strongly about during my days, so it might make sense to document it for posterity.
I've been making crazy-strong teas recently in hopes that it'll change me into a different person, a more motivated, hardworking and clearheaded one. I don't know if that's come around, but I'm afraid it might have caused some side effects including actually lowering my energy level when I don't have it (from the baseline) and potentially causing sleep issues etcetera. More on that in the coming days because I don't have exhaustive evidence for either side.
Either way, the other day I brewed tea with three or four teabags in a single cup and it was so nasty, particularly the green tea which caused my cuppa to be hella bitter so I had to add honey, something I never do. And the following day, I ran out of the white pomegranate tea, which made the whole thing taste even worse, so not only did I add honey but also sweet vinegar, which made it a bit more tolerable.
Earlier today I brewed more green tea, two cuppas, and only steeped for a few minutes, but still so goddamn bitter, that I had to add sugar to it, there was no way around it. Now that I'm regularly consuming green and white tea I'm wondering if I should look into black tea as well, and if adding sugar should be a regular thing, and also if I should add lactose free milk and what not. And if I've gotten that far, might as well add the standard spices and make it tasty, like they do back home? Oh god, what trap hath I fallen into?
It's a situation in progress, more on this in the coming days.
